Hi everyone
I was linked to this site on a few occasions from from Pink Fish Media and found some very interesting articles so I have registered and I am interested to learn more.

I have been interested in HIFI since my early teens around 1973 and I have an interest in DIY Audio and enjoy building and soldering as a hobby.
I have a picture of my current set up here http://www.flickr.com/photos/69508926@N05/7717979626/in/photostream and it sound pretty damn good to me even if most of it is DIY. Im no expert BTW just a bodger really :)

Best
Alan

Hi Alan. Good lord, that's now three of us on this forum from British West Hartlepool. The monkey hangers are taking over.

Hi Alan,
Welcome to AoS. Perhaps you'd let us know what your system consists of & what sort of music you like to listen to?

Cheers

Hi Alan

A massive welcome to AOS. fab looking system. As Harry says, We Simian lincher's are fast becoming a majority. We really must have a Hartlepool or North East bake off. I wonder if there is any other Poolies on the forum? great to have you here alan.
