    I might just bring some LP's. I have nothing new to contribute. Alan T's reel to reel is by far better than my old Tascam so unless i acquire something intersting in the meantime i may well enjoy everyone else's stuff instead.

    I will have my semi active three ways, but these only allow swap outs on the source and maybe the pre amp, as the 6 channel power amp is part of the active set up. Still, the option is there as I will be leaving late.

    Hi Rich yep got it fettled and is now doing sterling work hooked to my Pioneer PL 630 t/t.It did sound canny ,late on in the procedings when things were coming to an end [notice I did not say "winding down"] at the last meet. Hope Alan brings the r2r suitably loaded with good tunes , told my lad about ,eager to hear it,and also hope Steve brings his homebrew PX amps ,raved about these also.If you want me to bring anything ,let me know[old stalwart Radford?] I will bring the 180g vinyl version of Devin Townsend that impressed at the mini NEBO we had at Jarrow .

    Is anyone bringing efficient speakers?

    The Radford is a bit of a NEBO favourite so I'd hope to see it again mate!

    I've listened to that Devin unplugged album quite a few times now on Spotify. Such a splendid recording of some very moving songs.
    One of these days... I'm going to cut you into little pieces.

    I'll have a pair of RS3 and without speaking for other attendees I know there will be some very efficient design speakers there.
