Name's Martin - I'm originally from Liverpool;now living and working in 'sunny' Stoke on Trent
I've been on the hi-fidelity quest since I bought my first 'seperates' system from Richer in 1988...
I regret that my system is a little prosaic compared to most. I'm currently using:
Custom rebuilt (by Systemdek in the early '90s) SystemdekIIXE; Linn Basik Plus and Ortofon MK540MKII
Cambridge Audio Azur 840p CD Player
Linn LK1/LK100 Pre/Power amps
into Celestion A2 speakers bi-wired with Chord Odyssey and a Russ Andrews mains block channels in the power...I'm now looking at the amplification as being the current 'weakest link' but..well, I'm not a millionaire...
I understand I am obliged to give a hint of musical tastes so I will say - Rock,Jazz, Blues, Funk and Soul and leave it at that. Although if I then mention that my two all-time favourite bands are Steely Dan and Led Zeppelin I am sure that more than a few of you out there will guess not just my approximate age but where I am coming from 'taste-wise'.
I've joined this forum because my cronies are only interested in 'Home Cinema'; equate 'very good' with 'very loud' and make snoring sounds when I attempt to talk 'hi-fi' (Boo-Hoo).
Best Regards
Martin
