    Spent the morning re-organising the living room. The main kit (amp, dac & PS, TT and phono stage) now sits on a Stands Unique rack I picked up on ebay for £80 which I think looks really good and also (more by luck than judgement it has to be said) matches the new Alphason tv unit. Stlll good a bit of cable tidying to happen but so far very pleased.

    Will try and upload a few better photos when I get a chance as this one does not do it justice really.

    I have to say that I am now really pleaseed with everything, the addition of the Young Dac and its power supply has made a HUGE improvement to things, the emount of detail now on offer is pretty amazing I think.
    The loaner Firebottle phono stage has really impressed me as well so much in fact that hopefully in a few weeks I will actually own one myself. And for the time being I think im very happy, cant see me changing anything much for the forseeable future but you never know

    Neat and very nice. Nothing at all like my pigsty!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Wow - that looks supa-dupa.

    Thanks Jerry!

    I really like the looks of the Wand too (besides the fact it sounds great) and it really does seem to suit the look of the SRM.

    Was pretty easy to fit the cart too, being a unipivot you can remove the arm invert it and easily fix the cart before placing it back in position and tweeking it as necessary.

    Since I now have a decent camera for possibly the first time in my life I thought I might try and share a few better quality pix of my system. I realised my photography skills are way below the abilities of the actual camera but I hope you get the idea

    Turntable and arm







    The Firebottle plus phono stage has proved to be a big step up in quality and the service from Alan was top notch too
