Hi everyone, I'm Damian and an eclectic collector of hifi.

I'm the proud owner of a few vintage receivers (Marantz 2238B, 2285B and a Yamaha CR800), an upgraded Quad 405, Marantz SC22 and MA22s, numerous CD players from the 80s and 90s, the ones of note being a Marantz CD11LE and a CD85. Speaker-wise, nothing much has changed over the years, I'm a proud (original) owner of a pair of Heybrook Sextets that I've recently removed the crossovers to take me on an active crossover journey using miniDSP's 2x4HD. In addition to the Sextets I have a pair of wonderful Neat Petite 3s that I live in hope of partnering with their Gravitas transmission-lines at some point in time. For my modern digital fix I use a Cambridge Audio CXN although I do have Abrahamsen DAC and a SMSL Chi-Fi DAC that occasionally come into service.

Music wise I'll listen to anything, as long as it sounds good and keeps me interested.

Welcome to AOS, Damian.

your thread title intrigued me - what was it like working with Hank?

That's a difficult one to answer, I think I'll be looking at the amplification side, but who knows......so long as it sounds good!

Everyday felt like I was walking along the edge of cliff!
