Hello all,
I just started popping on here looking for bits of info.
I don't change equipment that much,but when I bought a pure i20 dock for my iphone I really wasn't impressed with the sound so thought I would invest in a new pre to replace the selfbuilt Ben Duncan Pas 02that I've been using for 20 years or so ,so in came a Roksanl1.5 with a ds1.5 power supply.
Roksan Rok dp1 cd with an Orelle dac Roksan Radius turntable with a RB300 arm and a Linn Troika cartridge.NVA phono stage with Ortofon t5 step ups.
Don't play vinyl much but its so nice when I do.Looking to improve the vinyl sound with a better quality sut.
Power amp is a trusty Michell Alecto stereo,couldn't afford the mono blocks 17 years ago when I bought it.
Speakers are Pro ac Mini towers.
So there you have it,as I say I dont change things on a whim,oh yeah I did change the speakers th other day for some Big Ears Audio Silver jobbys that I got off the Bay for £35.
Music tastes are far and wide from brass bands to gypsie jazz,world music ,folk jazz classical,blues ,rock and some roll, If it makes my foot tap ,I'm there.I like to listen to music and not equipment.

John,I'm in Harrow.
Been looking at sut's on ebay and some are stupido prices.
Presently bidding on some old Partridge 12:1 suts.
I think they will suit the troika.
