    Hello, I'm James, based in ye olde green and pleasant land. I have joined the forum in search of knowledge, partliculary with regards modifying old speakers. My system is as follows:

    -Chord 2qute w/ LDA external PSU or Technics 1210 w/Goldring 1042.
    -Albarry AP11 pre.
    -Albarry M608 monos.
    -Sony SS-G1 mk2 (a vintage gem). Atacama Stands (Basmati filled) sitting on Something Solid Missing Link Feet.
    -Tellurium Ultra Black speaker cable and interconnects. Standard Black USB.
    -MusicWorks Revo 3 stand.
    -Missing Link Cryo Ref power cables.

    My friend gave me the Sony SS-G1s recently (he bought them for 40 quid) and, having bought a soldering iron, I intend to fit new terminals, re-wire internally, maybe some new components on the crossovers, maybe even go external.... First I must learn how to solder tho!

    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!”

    Hi James. Welcome to AOS.

    I'm sure you can find any info you need about your speakers here. Try starting a thread in the Blank Canvas section and ask about any mods you may have in mind.

    Take a look around the site. You'll find plenty of interesting stuff going and feel free to join in.


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.
