    Smile Hello From Yorkshire

    I new as I guess you know from this thread.

    I have had the hifi bug for many years and made many changes and updates to my system to where it is today.

    I have built may system over many years mainly through the second hand market. My system as it stands is as follows

    Speakers: Customised Snell Type Aii and Gaumont Kalee 379 Compression Drivers with Vitavox Horns and Vitvox Crossovers
    Pre: Croft Vitarly SC
    Power Amps: Gaumount GK18 Monoblocks
    CD Player: Lector CDP 7TL
    Turntable: BBC Technics SP10 mkII with BBC Tonearm and DL-103 Cartridge
    Stepup/headamp: Albarry MCA11
    Streaming: Chromcast Audio

    I have a very wide test in music from rock to reggae. If the quality is there then I will generally enjoy listening to the music what ever it is.

    I have recently rediscovered vinyl having been a cd convert for many years. Which is costing a small fortune at the moment. If only I hadn't given into to digital in the 80s, still at least I didn't throw my old records away so it's not a total start from scratch. Just wish they could make vinyl the same way they back in the day as modern vinyl seems to have a cold ness about it which does not seem to be the case with older vinyl.

    Anyway that enough I about my system and me for now.

    Hi Mike. Welcome to AOS.

    Interesting system you have there. Some photos of your speaker arrangements would be good in our Gallery section.

    What future plans if any do you have for your Hi-Fi?

    There's plenty going on here and there's a good interest in vintage gear. Feel free to join in the chat, everybody is friendly.


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.
