    Default Hello from Hampshire

    Its been a long time since I've dabbled in home audio and so going through the for sale threads brings back some memories of +20 years ago! I can actually afford some of the more esoteric (ie expensive) stuff now!

    I look forward to reading through some of the threads and getting up to date in the world of audio once again.

    Cheers Darryl

    Hi Darryl. Welcome to AOS.

    I take it you plan to put a new system together. What do you have in mind?

    Also, what music do you listen to?


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Wow, lots of replies.

    I listen to a wide range of music. I used to listen to synth (think Jean Michel Jarre / Tangerine Dream), or lots of rock, or blues (think Junior Wells), or classical, or ....... these days I get subjected to a lot of pop thanks to my kids!

    I shall be perusing the classifieds as well as the other threads. I've always wanted to build a valve amp so I think you can see what I might be looking at more....

    Cheers Darryl

    I'm near junction 7 of the M3, so not too far from the Berks-Surrey-Hants border.

    Cheers Darryl
