[PalsHuffMor]

Hi all,

I've been into hifi for over 30 years.

Turntables I have owned - Dual, Rega, Linn, Townshend, Michell, WTL, Oracle.
Cartridges - A&R, Linn, Rega, Transfiguration, Ortofon, Grado, Audio Technica.
Amplifiers - Rotel, Cyrus, Naim, NVA, MF, Audio Innovations, Yamaha, Sugden.
Digital - Phillips, Orelle, Chord, Schiit, iFi.
Speakers - Wharfedale, Linn, BLQ, AR, Heybrook, NVA, Rega, Mission, Impulse, Royd, Harbeth.
Cables - Naim, Cyrus, NVA, DNM, Townshend, Chord Co.

By no means an exhaustive list - just the ones that hung around for more than a few months!

Music tastes really are eclectic - Anarcho Punk, Folk, Trad Country, Rock & Roll, Electronica, Psychedelic, Chamber, Sonatas, Symphonies

Kids are nearly all grown up now, so more time to participate on a forum. Interested in learning more about the engineering / technical aspects and interested in attending bake-offs

Hello and welcome from up the road in Gateshead.

We have the odd bake off every so often.... See my signature for details.

So what does your current system compromise?

All the best.

The NEBO bake Offs are worth attending
Enjoy your time.

PS. Thank you for the NEBO link. I had heard of NEBO but had not realised it was this close to me...

Smashing system, I had a pair of NVA a40 monos and got a loan of a pair of cubetttes. No complaints with how the gear sounded. I'd still like to hear the big cubes one day.

You are certainly welcome to pop down to hear the Cube 1s, Rich. I will be away most of the school holidays, but September onward...just let let me know.

I'll certainly take you up on that offer...

Thanks.

Hello Christopher. Welcome to AOS.

That's a fair list of gear you've got through. Do you have future plans for your system?

Take a look around the site and feel free to join in any chat that interests you.


Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.

Thanks Geoff,

I think I'm nearly at the end game with the system. Will upgrade the P50sa pre to a P90sa later this year. Toying with the idea of biamping the speakers with an A60MK2 for the tweeters. Maybe TCS speaker cables. I have a lot of pre 1970s LPs so the Graham Slee stage is essential kit with the eq switches, but I could be tempted by a 'serious' phono stage for modern LPs. I will try to get to a few bake-offs. Always happy to dem my system, too.

I will be joining in, for sure...but more so once the summer holidays are over.

Hi Christopher,

I realise you are probably away on hols now, but it looks like you are less than 10 minutes from my house so you are welcome to pop round to have a listen sometime when you are back.

As has already been mentioned the NEBO get togethers are great fun.
