    Very smart looking system. I heard the Focal model that you have a few years back and they surprised me ..... in a good way too.

    Hi Stuart,

    Welcome to AoS

    Nice system! But it would be good if you uploaded the pics to Photobucket or Imageshack, and posted them directly here, so that the pics appear instantly on the page, rather than going through your flickr account.

    If you're not sure how to do that, there are clear instructions in The Gallery

    Marco.

    You can just as easily embed an image from flickr.

    Hmmm, apparently flickr doesn't provide that link anymore. Sorry.

    You can also use google web albums. Picasa I think it's called.

    Hi Stu, here's the Photobucket link http://photobucket.com/
    I use this with no probs. Once you have uploaded pics, click on the relevant link,
    I use Image code, left click, will say copied, then right click on forum where you want image. Image code will give you large image.

    While I dont have vinyl myself I do think the gear you have looks mighty impressive, especially the turntable which looks like an awesome piece of equipment, the speakers look good too!
