Hi everyone,
I’ve enjoyed reading AOS threads for a fair amount of time and thought it was about time I signed up. I’ve been fairly obsessed with music and sound quality for quite a long time but have always worked with a fairly limited budget. I started tinkering with my guitar amplifiers about 15 years ago and then progressed into re building a few old valve amplifiers. I’ve owned a few setups but I suspect a lot less than most people on here; The main items that come to mind were an LP12 which I no longer have which i used with an entry level Naim amp and Naim Credo speakers. I then owned a couple of unison research hybrids and an audio note OTO SE which I never really had the right speakers for. I also played around with a couple of AVI speakers which I tweaked a bit. I currently have some very nice Audionote UK AN-E kit built speakers,Audio note DAC 1.1 mk 2 (which I’ve modified a fair bit) and a rebuilt/ redesigned HG88 mk2 which I’ve given an audio note line driver stage and the mk 3 circuit. I also have a sansui au alpha 607mrx amplifier which I’ve re capped. And an old micro mega stage 3 CD player. I’m keeping an eye out for a good deal on an audio note amplifier (kind of wished I never sold the oto but didn’t know I’d acquire the AN-Es back then.)
Music wise, I really listen to a very wide range of stuff. I don’t listen to too much classical although I might on occasion. I also don’t like garage or current urban stuff but pretty much will listen to most other things.
I hope that’s not too much of a rambling introduction. Any heads up on entry level audio note amplification appreciated.
Thanks,
Lewisc
