I really like these cases, they are not cheap but at least make a DIY job look half decent
Alan
Roll on Nebo 5 and we get to hear them...
Lovely work as always Alan. Hats off to you.
What you doing with yer hackernap now then?
Thanks Richy
Not going to sell the Hackernap unfortunately, its a great amp and was a lot of work so will be kept as a back up amp
Alan

Next up will be my Linn LP12 and rega P3
Alan
Linn LP12 and Rega Planner 3 also sold this week, sorry to see them go but they are just gathering dust in boxes in the loft so someone may as well get some pleasure out of them
It was actually nice to have a play with them before they went the LP12 was very musical and I spent all afternoon revisiting old classic Prog and it sounded great

The rega P3 also put in an incredible performance for its price bracket (sold for £100) even in stock form but really opened up when I fitted the Audiomods arm denon DL160, it put in a seriously good performance playing Stamila by Hugh maskella which is hard to track during those thunderous drum outbreaks

Looks pretty superb. Didn't know atari did rtr's
I believe that's Otari, but yes, a lovely looking machine Alan.
Whoops LOL yes it should read Otari MX55N :o
Alan
I was wondering about the Atari thing too. I read it last night and pondered then thought that Atari were a big company they must have had a pro-audio division at some point in the dim and distant.
But it was just a typo...
Hi all been a while so just thought I would post a couple of pics of the present system not that much has changed :D
I am working on a new hifi rack which is remarkably similar to the podium rack on the left I have only done 2 tiers but it has worked out well so far
The next change for me will be an 821 pre amp that I am working on as it has a little more gain than my B4 which helps with my Phono playback again that's not finished yet but making nice music in its present part finished state.
Ill post a build thread f both these projects when I finish them :eyebrows:
I still have the R2R fettish :eyebrows:

Just thought I would update my old system thread to add a couple of changes
The most recent one is the Resurrection of an old Tascam 122 mk2 Cassette deck and thats sounding quite lovely and I am enjoying it very much, just needed a re cap on the capstan motor control board and a new set of idler tyres, I bought a calibration tape from ANT and that has helped my be able to check through the calibration
The latest and my favorite addition to my R2R collection is the studer A810 which I have spent quite a bit of time on last year recapping all the electrolytics, little blue Phillips, little red roderstines and the dreaded Rifas all power supply caps and motor run caps as well as substituting all Op amps for LM4562. new bearings in the reel table motors
I am very pleased with it and I am now confident its not going to fail due to a dodgy old cap.

Had my eye out for one of those 122's for a while.... Lovely decks
Grant
I really like the deck and it has great sound quality for Cassette.
One major attraction for me was balanced XLR in/out as well as RCA. I also has an external record Bias fine tuning for individual cassette types.
Also VU meters do it for me :D
Alan
Never had a '122' but had a '133' has High speed option & bobbin VU's :eyebrows:
