New Money exactly where the problems exist.:steam: Major attitude issues in those who were poor and then by getting rich have a god complex and the attitude of the devil.

Got a Christmas card from sunny Jim this morning. No mention of 'flaming' June Dovey - his very supportive wife though. She was very seriously ill a while. I do hope he's not on his own now. I know what ...... I'll ask him. And then I'll figure out what to do.Quote:

If I'm really good can I get to lick the cake bowl?
Marco.
Well, the little inexpensive boys have been giving the greedy big ones summat to think about - a certain £2K DAC which takes eight months to run in but still being at least equalled by DAC's at little more than a tenth of the price comes to mind, along with mark Grant and his £1K plus killing interconnect and mains cables....
Looks like Howard has left us now...
Dave,
this was almost 2 years ago, so the 2k DAC would have been fully run in for approx
14 months now if you bought it back then.
Was Mark selling his £1K plus killing interconnect and mains cables back in DEC 2008 ?
We can all make good choices with hindsight.
This is "from the grave," so I was responding to it as things appear to be NOW, rather than back then.
Eye Candy……audiophiles love it ;)
Strange how the price and look of something makes it sound better than the same components in a crap box :doh:
Anyway, just wanted to pull up you reactionary old bastards on the “New Money” big white brush work going down here ;)
The middle classes of England eh; no wonder we can’t get a decent revolution going in this country with you lot tugging your forelocks for the gentry while aiming a sly stream of phlegm at the tasteless working classes.
Hi Fi, it’s a luxury goods market init? That needs folding stuff to purchase. Not to mention the liberal quaffing of all the fine wines and typically discrete willy waving us British are so fond of :lolsign:
(As you were chaps; you know I love ya really)
This is a good Graveyard thread to get revived ... :)
I think I have mentioned before a little eBay-sourced mm phonostage that punches way above its weight.
Well, prompted by my good self as to whether it can be modded to suit a low output mc cart (my beloved Denon 103, natch :)) the seller/designer has implemented a mc stage design he's had on the back-boiler for a while.
Of course, you'd expect to have to pay serious dosh for a serious design update, and that is the case here ... an extra £15! :eyebrows:
The phonostage arrived chez-J a couple of days back ... and it is fab!
Suits the 103 down to the ground.
Honestly, I'd put it up against the Heed and the MF XLPSv3 and expect it to win. As for the Cambridge Audio 640P ... fagedabowdit!!
Stunning at £48.50 delivered for the mm stage, and an extra £15 for the mc stage. And I feel sure the guy can match the gain to your particular cart - all you have to do is ask.

Strongly recommended. :)
And he's VERY local to me as well :lol:
I did wonder if it was you running a secret cottage industry and it would only be a matter of time before you tapped me up for one! ;) :lol:Quote:
