Hi guys (and girls, if any)
I am Cristobal from Brussels (don't throw stones..), Belgium. English is not my first language, so please forgive me when I write "charabia". Even after 40 years of reading English hi-fi mags, I probably won't win the Nobel price of English litterature...
I am crazy about EMT turntables, but now they are much too expensive for me, so I use heavily modified Lencos. I prefer valve amps, and I would not exchange my Leak Stereo 20 and Golden Tube SE40 for anything else. Well, almost...
My homemade enclosures with Tannoy 12' HPDs (well, Tannoy Blue, Canadian equivalent) were an almost mystic revelation to me, but that was some years ago, and now I think they need a crossover rebuilt, or maybe an active crossover, but this is almost rocket science to me...
I also love some vintage German speakers, especially the wonderful Isophon Orchester coaxials, really amazing drivers. I have two pair of them (one for sale, I am broke again...) and another one with the Isophon KK8 tweeters dead. So if you happen to have Monitor Audio MA5 (yes, they embark the same tweeters) for sale, please get in touch.
Best regards,
Cristobal :)
