    Hi Geoff
    The name is Laurence but I really cannot stand my name - its waaaaaayyy toooooo posh sounding for me - please call me Loz . By the way, I did try to change my name in my profile to the accepted medium for you but it just wont let me change it to give both names, (with or without brackets) so I did try but as I've declared my name here for everyone - its not as though I haven't stated it

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    There is an interesting review of these in the current edition of Hi-Fi News magazine. Good choice on the other items.

    Welcome to AOS Loz

    Nice kit. I have a few bits of Pioneer kit, mostly tuners.

    Would love to see some photos of your systems.



    Regards Neil
