Hi Jon. Welcome to AOS.

You've come to the wrong place for Hi-Fi habit therapy. We'll just make you worse! :)

Tell us about your system and what music you like listening to. Are there particular areas of Hi-Fi that interest you? You'll find that every aspect is covered here.


Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.

I have a few systems.
My main interest is in vintage speakers which I often restore and pass on.
Gale 401s are a real weakness -I have owned and restored five pairs of them -but I have owned most of the classic 1970s British speakers .Another favourite is the B&W DM70 hybrid electrostat which I am planning to refurbish including a complete re-veneer.
Also owned other electrostats,DIY horns and classic Tannoys.

Happy to mix new and old.I recently bought a pair of new JBL Studio 590s which I use with 1960s EL34 monoblocks which were ex ABC monitoring amps.
Accuphase gear is another weakness.Dream product would be the Accuphase DP720 CD/SACD/DAC which a friend owns and which sounds sublime.
