    Default Nwbo?

    Doesn't really trip off the tongue but I'm having a bakeoff in the northwest (between Preston & southport) 18th Feb. A few places already filled so room for another 12 or so I reckon. Bring munchies for lunch and your own drinks and we normally use the local tandoori takeaway for tea.

    Just the one room so only one system, but it's a big room
    SBT/Chromecast/TEAC T1 into TEAC D-T1 DAC or olde-worlde Rega Planar 2 controlled by Rotel RC850 into HH S500D or DACT Passive Pre into Mullard 5-20 monos. Then into Tannoy Cheviots and a Wharfdale sub. All connected by colourful cables.

    Any more? We can do vinyl, CD or streaming. A few wammers and ex-wammers are coming but it would be good to get a few more new faces.

    And the local takeaway is very good!
