Hi

[HWTest]

Hi from Czech Republic.

My main system:
amp - YAMAHA AX-590
CD player - YAMAHA CDX-590
tape deck - YAMAHA KX-670, Onkyo
DAT - Onkyo DT-901
turntable - Tesla NC-470, Goldring Elektra cartridge
speakers - Canton CT-2000

portable - FiiO X3 + YAMAHA EPH-100

I listen to a wide range of music but I prefer hard electronic music (like Front 242, Front Line Assembly, KMFDM, ...)

Hi and welcome to AoS.

Hello HWTest. Welcome to AOS.

Interesting system you have there. Do you have any plans for changes?

There is a Gallery section if you'd like to post equipment photos. They'll be appreciated.

Do you have a name you'd like to be called by or will it just be HWTest?


Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.

Thank you.

The system is a little bit old-school, I like old "machines" and I'm happy with the sound, so no plans for a change at the moment.
A better turntable would be probably a good idea but ...

I have a lot more equipment but I didn't want to make a long list :-)
Basically - the main system - YAMAHA based, secondary - Onkyo based, AV system - YAMAHA based.
All speakers are old Canton speakers but smaller than the CT-2000.

Sometimes I move components between the systems or experiment with DACs (Arcam rLink and a DIY AK4396 based DAC)

I especially like tape decks. Actually I have 6. I had more but I had to sell some of them. I love the sound of the AIWA AD-F770 :-)

With the photos, that will be tricky as I'm not good in taking nice photos.

HWTest is OK, that's why I choose it as my nickname :-)

I rather like Onkyo. I had the classic seventies Integra 725 amplifier many years ago. Very fine little unit for its time.

Don't worry about the quality of your photos. We'd still like to see some. :)
