I'm Lensi from London and I've been checking the Site a while now ( when time allows ) as of course there's always greats points of reference and interest. I jump in and out of what's current thinking though my set up is predominantly a fusion of 'modern' with vintage. For those that want details . .
Grey 301, Bastin tweak'd with Bastin tweak'd plinth, SME 1 12 + SPUs various, Marantz Model One Pres, Western Electric 86 amp plus others, Ongaku ( on loan ), Wadia 7 trans + AN Dac 5 Sig, various Western Electric drivers + Tannoy DTM 215s . .

Music is across the board . . . from Dudley Moore to Brian Auger to 'High life, Nigerian 70's funk, German electronica, Italo, New York deep minimal house and electronica, astral Disco and Baleric boogie . .and anything else that's working for me !

I believe 'music' is therapy and equipment the key to helping us unlock 'that' door to the magic land ; )

Hi Tarazn, John
Cool to be met by you both . . great to be onboard. Oh - but Do check the 70's Nigerian Funk - put goggle images and you'll see many of the re-issues of incredible music that was hidden for decades

Hi Laurence,
It's nice that you found us & here's a warm welcome to the forum from me.

That sounds like an interesting system you have there - you'd make a lot of people very happy if you took some photos & posted them into the AoS Gallery.

I've not heard much West African funk, but I have a copy of 'The World Ends: Afro Rock and Psychedelia in 1970's Nigeria (Pt. 1)' which is fantastic!

Welcome once again!
Cheers

Afternoon Mr Floyd
Again, always nice to be welcomed although I trust the 'raining' quote is a 'general' one and not referring to Moi ?
