I spent my 59th anniversary last summer and I have worked 39 years full time in security. In early 90´s I was asked to write reviews in local High End publication Musiikin Ääni, so I did for maybe 1 year before publication went belly up. After this I started selling tubes as part time job... or hobby.
My audio hobby began in early 70:s, when we built amplifiers and speakers with my daddy. Later, when I went collage and started earning money during summer holidays, I bought hifi equipment like AR7, Harman Kardon 930 receiver and so on...
In early 90´ I lost my interest in audio. In early 2000´s I got married and got new hobbies. I got interested in wristwatches and wines, but I newer lost my contact to audio completely due my part time tube business, which was discontinued few years ago.
In 2009 my friend asked if I like to buy Tannoy Little Red monitors... and I did. This was new beginning of my audio hobby. Since then, I have bought several amps, speakers etc. like Ariston RD11S, Thorens TD125, Garrard 301, Garrard Zero 100S, SMEV, 3009 non improved, 3009S2 Imp, Benz Glider, Denon DL-103S, Stanton 881S, Entre EC1, Acutex M320-III, Ortofon MC30, Partridge 977 SUT, ARC CD3MK2, SP3, SP6C, SP14, D76A, CL60, H/K Citation 11, 12, 15, 17, H/K 630, Quad 22, II, FM1+MPX, 303, 405, 240, 34, FM4, Rogers Ravensbourne, Armstrong 621, Conrad Johnson Premier 7B, 11A, EAR509, Kef Cantata, Kef P60+Pro Kube, Kef 104.2, Kef KIT1, JBL L36, ATC K100, Tannoy LRM, Altec 604E, AR 2ax, 3aImproved, 5,7, XB originaalina ja Regalle modattuna, Goodmans Axiom 201, Warfedale Super Super12RS/DD, Linton amplifier, B&W DM2MKII, Celestion Ditton 15. Spendor SP1, HH Scott 299D Stereomaster, McIntosh C26, McIntosh MC2125, Fidelity Research FRT-3, Carlsson OA-50, Revox B750 MKII, Revox A77, Stax SR-XMk3, Stax SRD-6SB, Audio Technica AT-706, Koss ESP-950, Koss PRO-5LC, Nakamichi 580, Tandberg TCD-320, TCD-310, Leak Turntable/Lenco L75. Most of them have been rebuilt or rebuild is going to happen within few years.
Most recently I got involved in Tandberg TCD-310 & 320 rebuild. Just right now I am seeking information about Mordaunt Short MS-400 models. If you can drop some toughts, reviews or other relevant information especially for the first generation models, it would be appriciated.
