    You should have kept those Diamond 7.2's you 'gave away' to Alex. Bloody good they are, despite their size

    Wondered if you'd ever got your hands on them Dave (btw I actually bought them for £7!). I have a pair of 9.1s in one of my upstair's systems.

    They're a bit in your face Andy (but I quite like that) the Quads have tamed them a bit.

    I understand why you have the tt as your avatar, Roy -- yummy!

    Interesting comment about the 303 / 606 / Elites .... I deduce that the Elite monos are more like 303 with more power. Would that be about right? (I've been curious about the Elite amps myself and am familiar with the 606).

    Hadn't really thought of it like that but yes! The sound from the 606 seemed more closed in (moved it on for same price I paid for it so had a free audition, would still like to try a 'mark 2' though and a 707 & 909 ). The 303 is still being used in the bedroom system with a Creek pre amp & some Diamond 155s.

    Got someone stopping for a couple of nights so I've had to tidy the spare (kit) room (there's some in the cupboard as well)

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    Yep, still got the Crowns Grant (they're in the cupboard ). Fair to say the Quads are more refined (although I have been experimenting a little with speaker placement which has helped improve things - amazing how much difference a few inches makes) & I must try the Krell again at some stage...

    I have actually sold a couple of amps & a pair of speakers, trying to resist buying more.

    Default Return of the dining room system

    Really couldn't stand to see the PS-6750 sitting idly in a corner, more for late night vinyl listening via the headphone socket on the Teac amp.
