Hi everyone.

My name is Keith and i've been a long time lurker of this (and other) hifi forums. I've always had a desire to have a better sounding system and i've joined AoS to try and improve the quality of my equipment without trashing it any further.

I've got a couple of low-mid level systems;

Living Room - PS3 into an Arcam movie solo, out to four Kef KHT2005 speakers, a bigger Kef centre speaker and a MJA-Pro 50 sub.

Dining Room - Vintage Sony ES set-up with PS-X65 turntable, S770ES tuner, CDP557ESD CD, K890ES tape player, E80ES Preamp and Denon POA4400A monoblocks. These run into a a pair of Castle Severn 2 floorstanders and i've also got a pair of Yamaha NS1000 waiting in the wings for when i get more space. I used to have a N77ES Amp for this lot but a toddler induced shorting of the speaker cables finished it off, which was a shame since it sounded brill.

Music wise, it's pretty much an open book for me with anything going except techno music, which i despise. Having a turntable means I've been getting more into vinyl and am fortunate to have a half decent oxfam down the road to feed my habit. I wouldn't mind getting into 'proper' digital music and some point but that is an itch that can be scratched later.

Anyways like i said before i've been looking round other forums and i decided that AoS is a pretty good place to be a member.

Welcome aboard Keith. Glad you chose the right forum ;)
There will be plenty to interest you. if you read some of tge back threads it may give some ideas...otherwise open a thread in the appropriate section. shame about the n77...maybe fixable though.

Hi Keith. Welcome to AOS.

You've come to the right place for advice. Our members have experience of a vast range of equipment.

If you want to discuss your system in general, as Grant suggests, start a thread and outline your ideas. The Blank canvas area is probably best.

There is also a Gallery area if you'd like to post photos and start a blog about your system.


Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.

Welcome to AoS Keith,

I think you have made the right decision! :D

We have several members here who are fans of the Yamaha NS1000, so you are in good company. :)

Enjoy the Forum

Regards
Barry
