    Strange isn't it? One lurks around for ages reading all the interesting postings yet never took the time to just register until something clicks!
    Glad I took the plunge.
    Cheers.

    Thanks Geoff.
    Not very knowledgable when it comes to system setup. I play it be the ear and stick to something I like.
    Music taste - ranges from 70s rock to Blues & Jazz. Lately I have been playing a lot of Blues and Jazz.
    Cheers.

    Music taste ranges from 70s rock to modern jazz....when it suits the mood but too old for head banging these days

    Thanks....very interesting read on this site...wish I know a bit more about "hifi". I mostly played it by the ear...what sounds good to my ears will do but as age catches up the hearing goes a bit...sadly.
