    Default new guy

    hi, i'm mike and i've just started getting into vintage hi fi, especially vinyl, love the old snap crackle and pop you only get with records, well unless the crackle and POP was a speaker being blown. my set up is Thorens TD160, Rotel ra 610 (surprisingly good amp despite them going for taxi fare on ebay, shhh) Arcam Delta 70 cdp, Wharfedale dovedale III speaks, and a Leak stereofetic tuner, but rest assured theres more amps and speaks around the house at least 4 pairs o speaks and a couple amps and tuners. thanks for reading, mike.

    Nice! - I have a fairly broad taste too - rock, blues, jazz, a bit of orchestral.
    We like to tell the other members what we're playing by posting on this thread here
    My last few entries included some Polish rock and jazz from the late 60's/early 70's, Blackfield, The Doors, Lyle Lovett, Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green version) and Acid Mothers Temple
