Hello from more northerly Yorkshire...

[hifisound.co.uk]

Hi All,

Glad to be here, and hopefully looking to forward being a active a member as time permits.

For those of you who don't know me (I know some do), I run a shop in the North East called HiFi Sound, and a couple of websites (probably best known is www.2ndhandhifi.co.uk) which keep me out of mischief.

We import Magneplanar loudspeakers and Audez'e headphones which are both something a little different from the norm.


My business is essentially an extension of my hobby - I collect turntables, so if anyone has a vinyl related problem I am always happy to try to help...

Regards

Simon

Hi Simon, and welcome to AoS. I've visited your 2ndhandhifi site only just recently - excellent layout and the videos are a great idea.

I'm sure you will find lots of interesting threads to join in on - have fun . :)

Welcome from me to Simon :) The more the merrier with the trade members as far as i'm concerned, can only give more choice ;)

I do hope you enjoy your stay, all the very best :wave:

Hi Simon,

Nice one, mate. Glad you found your way in :)

I first met Simon about six years ago, when he was in his old shop in Darlington (a proper old hi-fi shop!), much less posh than what he has now ;) and his knowledge and standard of customer service was second to none.

Simon is rather like hifi dave - a 'proper' dealer, who is basically just an enthusiast like us, but with a shop! He's also very knowledgeable about turntables, particularly the LP12, and loves vintage gear.

So, guys, as I know you will, please make Simon very welcome. In time, he will become a major asset to AoS :cool:

Marco.

Simon can get SPUs?

Ok, noted! He'll be getting the business then when I buy my Meister Silver later in the year :)

Hi Simon, I hear tell in Yorkshire they have real grass and sometimes electricity?

Is it also true that the sun is shiny?

I have so many questions as I rarely venture north of watford because of the wild camels...:fence:

Hi and Welcome :)

I think my Dual came from you twenty or more years ago, along with a bargain VDH Decca Export.....

I hope i've got the right guy... 'turntable world' runs from the same address, and they moved from darlington a few years ago.

assuming i've got the right guy, simon has quite a few decks in his personal collection, well over 100... we had and interesting chat

Hello Simon and welcome to AoS. Your website has been well and truly boomarked and having consulted with Mystic Meg, she feels a business transaction may be coming your way very soon... :lol:
