Hello all.

So, been a member since 2008, but mainly lurking so I thought its about time I said hello.
Will not preamble too much, just to say that have not changed my HiFi bits very often but thoroughly enjoyed what I have used.

Current main system is made up of the following:

Turntable: Michell Orbe
Arm: Audionote Arm1 V2
Cartridge: Goldring Elite
MC Phono Stage: Michell Iso
Integrated Amp: Pure Sound A30
Speakers: Reiver Jenna
Digital: Raspberry PI with IQAudio DAC+; Philips DCC 730
NAS Drive: Iomega (plus a few USB disks plugged into the WiFi router)
Main 'phones: Sennheiser HD600

Pictures below show the current setup minus the Iso and PI (in the cupboard) and this was before I added the Elite - was using an A&R P77 which had been re-tipped by Expert Stylus some time ago.

Other kit I have (in no particular order) are:

Amps: Home brewed Mullard 20-20 clones, Audiolab 8000A (bought new in '85), Leak Delta 30, Armstrong 521, home brewed valve pre amp, Rotel power amp (can't remember its name!)
Speakers: Quad 12L, Heybrook HB1's (bought new in '85 and been re-foamed), TDL RTL2 and some home brewed Wharfdale kind of speakers.
Turntables: 3 Lenco L75's, Garrard SP25 MkII
Arms: RB300, Linn Basik Plus
Cartridges: 2 A&R P77, GE RPX 61, Ortofon OM10 (plus 78 rpm needle)

Mmm - thinks that is all - well done if you read all that (more preamble than I thought!)

Hello Andy. Welcome to AOS.

That's a decent collection of Hi-Fi you have there. Interesting to see the Armstrong 521 in there, not seen one for half a lifetime.

If you have any future plans for your systems, we'd like to hear what you may have in mind.

There's plenty going on here, so get involved and chat with everybody.


Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.
