Confronting your own realities...

The new KT88 is the 300B!

Ooo-er nice one :smoking:

Let's hope those f*ckers from Empire Stores cough up - if not the boys might just have to pay them a little visit ;)

Marco.

I've kinda got pissed off a bit after today's shenanigans! ;)

For those who don't know, Empire Stores has gone tits up and taken the money I recently payed for a brand new Technics SL1210 with it. Twats!

I might get it back, but it won't be in the next ten minutes or anything.

I think you're taking it remarkably well, actually :)

Marco.

Well, what else can I do? :confused:

T'ain't exactly a fortune... Worse things happen at sea, as they say! :)

Or summat.

Oh yeah.

And I'm gonna get one of them too! :eyebrows:

Sorry to hear that Mike.
I guess it's a dodgy time to buy anything of value, unless you can actually walk out the door with it.:(

4) Is it safe?

Anything else is of secondary importance, including if necessary having to revisit and reassess something that I had previously considered as unsuitable. I'm not proud, blinkered, nor easily embarrassed, and therefore I don't have a problem admitting I'm wrong or having made mistakes.

Basically, I remain always open-minded with hi-fi and follow no forms of absolutism. This I feel is a healthy state of mind to have, rather than being the opposite.

Well after speaking to Mr Toy, my open mindedness made me give some cables from Mark Grant a whirl, they've had me scratching my head, how come these buggers work better than the somewhat more expensive offerings, tis witchcraft I tell ye.

They're fantastic, aren't they? :eyebrows:

Quite simply, I haven't heard any better cables anywhere, ever, - at any price! 'Giant-killing' gear offering the highest SPPV value is undoubtedly what it's at with hi-fi...
