    Default 2017 Hi Fi plans , Whats yours ?

    With 2017 just around the corner I was wondering what projects people have lined up ?

    I have 2 in mind

    No1

    Get my Garrard 401 TT put back together and running

    No 2

    I have been toying with the idea of building a pair of speakers

    Yup. 3 studio R2R machines is enough. No need to upgrade anything else in my system - am a very happy bunny

    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!”

    New set of OB's, if I ever have the time..
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    1. Finishing off the "Lenco Reference" deck.
    2. Decoupling my Garrard 301 bearing and maybe experimenting with a bentonite plinth.
    3. Maybe some monoblocks, either valve or SS.
    4. Maybe some new SPU's.
    5. Having fun with more vintage and SPPV products.

    None whatsoever. After 2016 has robbed us of many an important cultural figure, so it has pilfered my wallet with alarming regularity.

    After a shameful year of box swapping, my modest set up is at a place at which thorough enjoyment has arrived.

    2017 will see vastly more music consumed and appreciated, I promise.
