Hi

I actually joined in 2009 and for some reason, forgot all about it (ah! - my daughter was born 3 weeks early the day after i joined - that would explain things:doh:)

I have been obsessed with Hifi since my teens, when a trip to Birmingham to buy a midi system had me walking away from Griffin audio with a bargain used Rega Planar 2 and a kenwood amp and some wharfedale speakers from Richers - i was hooked!

As much as i love HiFi - its the music that really matters and i love that as much now as when i was a kid - long may it continue. My all time favourites being; Stones, Led Zep, Nick Drake, Fairport, John Martyn, Bowie, Nick Cave, Smog, Richard Thompson, Cohen

My current system comprises of:
Leben cs300xs Amp
Audio Note AN/E Spe Speakers
Michel Gyro - Orbe upgrade/Technoarm & Shelter 501
Art Audio Vinyl 1/Martha SUT
Unison research Unico CDE
EE Minimax Dac
Squeezebox/Vortexbox.

Looking forward to spending some time on here.

Cheers

Rich

Hi Rich welcome from me too.
Although I never went to the shop, I remember the ads in the hi-fi press at the time 'Get something spiffin' at Griffin!'
Hope you enjoy the forum while you're here.
Cheers
