    Default Hello

    Thanks for adding me .
    I make turntable plinths for a living , have done so for 5 years. I concentrate on idler drives such as Lenco and Garrard.
    I am a long standing audio enthusiast and like a broad spectrum of music, from Mozart to Beefheart and beyond !
    I also love audio equipment of all types, its what makes the magic happen .
    Im currently using a Garrard 401 and an old technics 8080 amp, speaker's change quite regularly but currently im messing about with an old set of kefs and wishing i hadn't sold my Lancasters.

    Hi Carl. Welcome to AOS.

    I'm sure there'd be interest in your plinths. There's always somebody with a turntable project.

    Yes, that was silly flogging the Lancasters. It'll cost you now to get another set.


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

    Thanks Martin and Geoff. I swapped the Lancasters for some esl 63s which were great but had 1 achilles heel, namely not much umph when it was needed. Ive gone around the houses since then.
