My humble 1970 Mordaunt Short MS400. They may be worth nothing but they are in good nick and produce some beautiful music. So much so, in fact, that I'm finding it hard to replace them as I haven't got room for two sets and I can't bear to see them go

A mainly digital setup with a musical amplifier and endearing 1970's speakers. A CD player that hardly ever gets used and a turntable that is good enough to remind my how enjoyable my old vinyl is. Some cables and things.

I'm gone.
Yeah, I know.
I used to swap speakers every few months, and they were the good ones I regarded as keepers!

Not great photos, and not in place being used.
I have more of my FPS plane wave and subs, rather than a corner of one next to the Chario speakers ( same as Jerry).but on the other laptop, and not good as photos taken show me reflected in my pants, so better not post those...

Some fantastic speakers (and other kit) on show here guys, truly there are many many roads leading to the same place. Visually speaking I am not a wood kind of guy, but "StevetheShadow's" system looks fantastic I have to say, very impressive skills on show there.
