Hi there Phatman and welcome to AoS. There are a lot of folks here into computer audio and more than a few excitable Mac users. There's an Apple Fanboy club over in the social groups area here http://theartofsound.net/forum/group.php?groupid=1 where you can find a refuge to dis' windows users without fear of reproach!

What do your friends call you? :)

Apple Social Club? Bloody hell, I never knew such a thing existed! I shall inform my local fruiterer ;)

With the 'Volvo owners fan club', or whatever, as well how do you get enough hours in the day? :lol:

Welcome Phatman - what's your proper first name? We like being on first name terms here :)

I'm one of the resident 'dinosaurs' who likes those funny round black vinyl things we used to play when 'hi-fi was hi-fi', as it were. You probably don't remember :eyebrows:

Enjoy!

Marco.

Hours in the day? LOL! I simply don't have enough of them. The Apple Social Club is on this site, but you have to be an Apple Head to get in. :) I'm not aware of any Volvo club though, maybe I'll start one up, but only for 300bhp+, anything less is a travesty and an insult to engineering. :lol:

Wow, seeing all that equipment brings back memories, including nakamichi (I had a caburretor by them) i do remember them black plastic things,do you meanEdison cylinder, 78's 33's or 45's? I started with Accoustic research turntable, sansui amp linear design speakers! was a good sound though, still got a linn bask somewhere!! & Meridian 2o7 preamp & CD transport & as a paperweight i have a Krell KSA100 (cant afford speakers or preamp that will make it sing) have a pair of TDL transmission line speakers (rtl2) krell will fold them in half!! its a hifi graveyard where i sit!!! wrapped up in blue audioquest cable!
now i'm buying a fatman amp???:cool:

We should make it a legal requirement to get one over on Marco at least once for every member. :lol:
