I think I'm pretty much there (for now).

For the first time in a long time I am really happy to leave everything as it is and spend money on music not kit. No major changes in the last few months, but I have added a Lehmann H/P amp and a pair of HD600s, which I am absolutely loving. I've got to spend a bit of time fine tuning, speaker placement is pretty plonk and go but I'm enjoying it so much I don't care.

Werll , the orange mains lead would look better in white.

It all looks great, lovely setup.
My old Lehmann fits in well. :thumbsup:

It's the only mains lead I had that was long enough :doh:

The Lehmann couldn't fit in better if it was purpose built, it's a very nice bit of kit too. It's definitely come to a good home :)

Nice, neat and tidy looking system! :)

Only one visual improvement left to do: tape the signal lead from the TT to one of the rack's vertical members, and the mains cable to the other. That way they will disappear from view to complete the cosmetics.

Oh - and find a new white mains lead to replace the orange one. ;)

... and you might like to try these if you want a bit more clarity and focus to the sound.

I've got a long set of edge cables. They are very good. Mine are red

Very nice, I came an inch from buying the same turntable. A clean looking set! I can see why you’re happy with it.

Funnily enough tidying those cables is on my fine tune list still to do, but I only have green cable ties to hand so I'm going to pick up a couple of black ones.

The orange cable is unfortunately a much more awkward job, it's a lot longer than it looks, it runs to the left of the rack round the wall to the squeezebox & DAC and the lamp. It's hidden in a plastic cable tidy against the skirting. I shall get round to it one day though :)

They are definitely cheap enough to try, but I've landed on Van Damme for now. After several cable types I had to stop somewhere.

Neat looking system, very nice!

Very nice setup, I especially like the Copland gear, good stuff! Your system looks very nice as well, enjoy!

Thanks for all the kind comments, hifi and music can seem like such an isolated hobby sometimes, so it's nice to get some warm feedback.
