Hello, The origin of the name bikerboy goes back to the early 70's when I was a mod, unfortunately I crashed into the back of a hearse and landed up with flowers!!!!. My father would not let me have a scooter again and bought me a Bonneville, I was the only mod with a tricked out bike, it confused the local rockers at the time.

My current kit is
NAS Ace Space Deck with a wave mechanic
Morch DP6 precision arm wand
Lyra Dorian
Ear 834P sig
Ear 834
Harbeth HLS5
Naim CD2
Beresford Caimen + Hiface

My musical taste are very wide the only thing I am not into is heavey metal

I am looking to introduce SUT and possibly change the Dorian

Hi Bikerboy - welcome to AoS.

Another new member with Harbeths! :stalks: Love them - in fact your whole system would be fantastic I suspect - we demand to see some pictures in the Gallery sometime. (Pretty please, with a cherry on top! ;))

I had a Vespa back in the 80s, but moved on to big bikes in the 90s, and now I have a nice stationery garage ornament, as I'm not allowed on it any more. :(

Anyway, enjoy the forum. :)

Hi Doug, welcome to AoS :) Probably the best thing that ever happened was killing the hair dryer (scooter) :eyebrows:

Like Alex says, we'd love to see some pictures in the gallery & that's coming from a solid state amp man :lol: I do love the look of those glowing bottles :stalks:

All the best & i hope you enjoy your stay :cool:

I am only recently a convert to the dark arts,(2 months) the EAR 834 replaced a Naim NAC82, Teddycap plus and Avondale S100, I have kept them to ensure its is the right thing for me. I am totally blown away by the sound and if you are close your welcome to come over.

Hi I was looking to replace my AO modded RB300, I found the Morch on the German Ebay and got it for a very reasonable price. I have seen alot written about how difficult they are to set up, which is rubbish, I got A.O. to make up acable for it and gives stunning results, I think I can get even more out of the front end by introducing a SUT, I am looking at a Choir audio H7.
