    Default Hello

    Hi - I have spent some time on other forums (fora?), and thought I'd try AoS for a bit of a change in tone - I have been spurred into action by the misbehaviour of my DAC setup - I can't decide whether to try and track down a decent example of the guilty component, or risk upsetting the sonic applecart by replacing it with something more recent/reliable...
    My current system consists of:
    JVC TT71 in DIY Cuban mahogany/bamboo plinth with carbon-fibre-bastard-son-of-Hadcock tonearm & Cartridge Man MMIII cart
    Modwright modded Pioneer transport running into Modwright Perpetual Technologies P1a/P3a
    Modwright LS100 pre with built phono stage
    Sugden Musicmaster amp - tweaked by Sugden to increase standing current
    Proac 1SCs
    REL Strata V

    My music taste covers covers a lot of ground : Krautrock, post rock, psychedelia, prog, jazz, rap, dance, folk, punk post punk etc etc - basically anything that isn't lieder, and probably not a great deal of Radio 2 daytime output.

    Hello Macklow. Welcome to AOS.

    If you are having 'digital difficulties', I'd suggest starting a thread in the Digital Expressions section and describing the problem. I'm sure you'll get plenty of response.

    There's a whole lot going on here, so take a look around and feel free to join in. the members are friendly.


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    “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!”
