With the exception of 'some' of the early to 80's stuff. To me when the brands merged it was a disaster somehow.Originally Posted by Virtual-Symmetry
I would not touch em with a barge pole after the early 70's

Thanks André. I'll keep an eye out for one.
Yes. I'd love to own a KA-907, or any of the L-07 series especially the L07d tt. I would also be very pleased to find a L-01A integrated.

Some recent additions:
Goldring Eroica LX in Nagaoka headshell:
Shure v15 iii with JICO SAS stylus. This is destined for use on the TD125/G707 when restored but I popped it in an ADC LMG-1 for now.
Some rather nice vintage Yamaha HP-500 headphones:

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.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Thanks Grant. I've always tried to keep my system focused but this last year has seen the box count creep up.Still, cartridges and headphones don't take up much room and everything that's in the cupboard comes out regularly for a spin
Cheers Geoff. It's early days but first impressions are really very good. I think it will see off my DV20XH.

And it's nice to see the Yammie 'phones in their new home.
-- as I said in my advert, they were a bit warm and cosy sounding for me, but whack up the treble tone control a few dB and they sounded fab!
