    Thumbs up Dust and grooves

    Dating back to the midsixties my interest in listening to good music started with a reel-to-reel taperecorder from the German company Grundig. It was given me as a present for my confirmation.
    Since then I´ve been a hunter for the best reproduction of sound. I believe I´ve been through more or less all possible ways of listening to music: Reel-to-reel, cassette player, turntable, cdplayer and minidisc.
    I´ve come to the conclusion that listening to vinylrecords played on a turntable is what sounds best in my ears.
    I´m the lucky owner of a stereosystem bought with my ears and not with my eyes. Ampilfiers from Rotel, turntable from Thorens with a Denon cartridge, cdplayer from Sony and speakers from B&W.
    It is not high-end but the music is reproduced with a natural sound.
    By the way I live in Denmark.

    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!”

    Hi Niels-Joern. Welcome to AOS.

    Sounds as though you've been involved in Hi-Fi a long time.

    I'm sure you'll find plenty to interest you here.


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