Hi
I live in Wellington, New Zealand and am a self-confessed Lenco addict! If you are ever in my neck of the woods drop in! I also practice Yang style Tai Chi.
Music? Yes, please! I have very wide tastes and am always open to new sounds! I listen to at least 2 vinyl albums everyday.
I have a number of turntables, Candy (http://www.lencoheaven.net/forum/index.php?topic=495.0) is my most well-known turntable. I am heavily into DIY and such things primarily because of a constrained (read non-existent) budget! In the last two years I have never had so much fun in thinking about, planning, and building all this stuff!
I have a 2 channel set up consisting of the following:
Sources
Candy (already noted above)
The Black Prince (http://www.lencoheaven.net/forum/index.php?topic=1424.0) - a Garrard 401 in Slate
Heavily modded Denon 103R Cartridge
Origin Live Illustrious MK II tonearm
Amps
Trichord Research Dino Mk2 Phono with Dino + PSU High Performance Power Interconnect lead
Heavily modded Audio Note M3 Line level Pre-amp - custom upgrades to resistor and caps in the beast done by me!
Power Amps
Quad 405-2 Mark III (Net Audio upgrade - a recent upgrade)
Loudspeaker
World Design KLS3 Mk III - this is a recent upgrade from Mark 1 status.
Cables
Interconnects - Self built Piano 6/1 (http://www.tnt-audio.com/clinica/piano6_1_e.html) cables
Loudspeaker - TNT triple T Configuration 6 (http://www.tnt-audio.com/clinica/triple_t_2_e.html)
Current projects:
Jet (http://www.lencoheaven.net/forum/index.php?topic=1023.0)- a Lenco in Slate. This will have a linear air bearing tonearm as well as the OL Illustrious.
