Looks like you have 'arrived'. Well done - there are some here who are still looking for this desirable state of affairs, and have been years in the process!

Look like a copy of the Posselt Albatross speakers

well even though my system is sounding awesome , unfortunately I get severe upgraditis , especially when all these juicy bargains crop up !!
I only intend to maybe do a couple of DIY projects, as I already have all the bits. But I can't think of anything to buy because I have the system exactly where I want it.
(unless of course a member wants to tempt me with an Aleph 3 power amp at a modest price :))
i thought they looked more like my FPS speakers, seen here on the left.

Copies eh?
Nope
I've been building and refining these quadratic tapered expanding quarter wave transmission line speakers since I came up with them in 2006. These are another refinement.
Here are my current ones at the Audio Talk Owston meet earlier this year:

After hearing my TT through someone else's speakers today I'm thinking of giving up on my vinyl setup, sell it off and stream via Internet or my nas only as my speakers are just not good enough for the front end and the sound I want, can't change them for various reasons so at the moment I'm by close to giving up and downsizing it all as I feel for the money I've spent it's just not good enough, and it's the speakers that are letting the whole system down, serious thinking to be done over Xmas and I'll see what the new year brings.
dont be getting too hasty Mike:). You might regret it. But I know what you mean; it can be frustrating to get right sound, and streaming is very handy and good too. Small speakers are hard to find that do the business.
:eek:
Selling up with a system like this
Technics 1210 Mk 5 modded with Mike New Bearing, Paul Hynes SR7-EHD PSU, Sounddamped Steel Isoplatmat, Isonoe Feet, Magna Audio Ebony armboard, Mission 774 Arm fitted with Audio Technica 33PTG II - TQ Claymore Amplifier, Firebottle Vivant Phono Stage, PMC Twenty .21 Speakers, Partington Dreadnought Stands, B&W PV1 Subwoofer,
I thought PMC 20.21 speakers were rated :scratch:
Have any of the Scottish mafia had a look / comment , You have a cracking setup , I can't understand whats wrong :scratch:
My 2017 plans involve getting rid of every bit of equipment, cable, accessory etc that is not actually being used, and to tidy up my system and listening room.
