Welcome to AOS Gregg


Beautiful house and systems.

I know the Boulder kit quite well having been involved - in part - in the selling of some and setting up a system comprising them. One of those jaw dropping moments in my audio past was hearing a system in which the preamp was replaced by a Boulder, the power amp was a modest Primare and the sound was stunning - preamps are - next to the source - the single most important thing - in my humble opinion/experience.

I own some PAD cables as well.

Never seen those speakers before very interesting design.


Regards Neil

That made me chuckle.

I'm fortunate enough to live in a big detached house but its not big enough to house those buggers. About 6ft tall?

Hi Gregg,

Fantastic system and an utterly fabulous house, I see you have some room acoustic treatment, are you happy with the sound or could you tweek the sound a wee bit more, and what acoustic treatment is used.

Gregg,

If you ever need anyone to housesit for you - drop me a note will you?
Alternatively, if you are looking to adopt a 42 year old, house broken (relatively) male with decent house cleaning abilities, look no further.:pat:

Forget the hi-fi - just love the architecture - when was the house built?
