First proper HiFi as described on my profile.
Someone's told me about discogs and I'm gonna go look.

Very nice indeed, but really you should get some photos up of your actual stuff Clare. Anyway how long have you had it and what are you listening to on it, what's sounding good eh?

Nice system Claire, should look good in all white.
For buying records, check this Site out, Discogs...like Ebay just for music.
http://www.discogs.com

Type in what you are looking for or search by Artist, Genre or whatever and there will be loads of folk selling it. :)
Go for NM condition (Near Mint) or above and look for sellers that have lots of good feedback, just like Ebay.


Have fun!

That little lot should make some nice noises.

Have fun :)

This section of the forum is for the posting of actual photos of your system not hot linking to stock manufacturer images. So whip out your camera or phone and take a few photos of the system. AOS members are a nosy lot as we love seeing members listening rooms (helps with giving advice too) and how they have set their equipment up.

Thank you in advance.


Regards Neil

Few minutes work would be enlightening but being honest many photos of members systems in the Gallery come with audiophile pixie dust on them, so we don't stand on cleaning ceremonies here on AOS so feel free to post photos regardless.

Yup, Clare, the gallery section is reserved SOLELY for actual pictures of members' systems. Therefore, I'd be obliged if you would put some up of your kit in situ at your earliest convenience.

Cheers! :cool:

Marco.

As long as the place is homely thats all that counts.

Welcome to the forum Clare i'm sure you will get the bug eventually but its a pain to get out of if you do by this i mean buying lots of HI-FI until you think its a enough though i am having trouble as of late with this problem :eek:

I bought this on the strength of the cover this weekend.

and the cover is definitely the best bit about it, but you shouldn't let that put you off adding it to your collection....

DECCA are a good label, known for usually top quality vinyl.

This one is on Polydor, like the one above. In association with Reader's Digest, of all things... I cannot vouch for the quality of this record as I have never played it.
