A mainly digital setup with a musical amplifier and endearing 1970's speakers. A CD player that hardly ever gets used and a turntable that is good enough to remind my how enjoyable my old vinyl is. Some cables and things.
Jamie Woon - Playing at the moment, love it, just about to try Mirrorwriting.
The base line is really getting my bc1’s working!

Time to get my cat suit, stacks and make up out, this is such a good Bowie album and the 180gm pressing is superb.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.
Confession time - I like everything they do - great music and lyrics and Garvey's voice is wonderful.
Guy Garvey did a question and answer session at the Manchester Festival a few years back (with Dave Haslam) and arrived on stage with a bottle of Highland Park. (Good choice but kept it to himself!) He told the audience that when "One day like this" was released Elbow were approached by an ad agency and were offered £1million+ to use the track behind a Weetabix ad. They turned it down because they would have lost control of how their music was used. He said it was a tough decision to make because at the time they were only just breaking through with album sales and several of the band had young families to support.
Last saw them live at Jodrell bank with the telescope dish as backdrop, great night despite the weather - pi55ed down from start to finish.
