    Default Hello From Cardiff

    Hi everyone,

    I'm not new to this forum but forgot to say hello when I joined so I'd better say it now.

    I've been into Hi-Fi for longer than I care to remember.
    I grew up around valve powered radiograms and when we were old enough my friends and I got 'run of the mill' early solid state stereo equipment which despite my best efforts just never sounded right.
    Eventually after years of heartache and against my better judgement (being a sceptic) I decided to give in, take the plunge and spend what to me was too much money on decent Hi-Fi separates and apart for a few bumps along the have never looked back.
    I now have a modest system that I am very happy with the only surviving components from my original purchases being the Cyrus 2 and PSX which are a great combo with my IMF TLS50s.

    Anyway that's me ....

    Cheers Winston

    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!”


    ***SMILE, BE HAPPY***

    Hi Winston, welcome to AOS. I bought a Cyrus 2 and PSX in Cardiff many years ago. There used to be a second hand HIFI and Pro audio shop Just at the start of Cowbridge road east ( i lived in Canton at the time, just moved from Splott ). Enjoy the forum.

    Hello Winston. Welcome to AOS from me too.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
