    TIHMB listening to the 42 yr old copy of Trick Of The Tail, by Genesis on my modest old AiwaAp2200 (with Grants old Shibata AT95 cart and stylus on it )and loving the little crackles that I put there with an old Ferguson stereo yrs ago !!
    Great album and one of my all time favorites !!

    And wondering if Audio Al has forgiven me for suggesting the Aiwa was a good deck for the money ( I am well past the envy /want another TT stage now !!)

    Well the camera turned up today, dead easy to set up & records a portion of video when it senses motion which it did for every passing car but didn’t record me backing off the drive, closer to the camera

    Impressed with the picture quality



    & here's the video of me coming home (there was a smart light on in the room otherwise the video would be clearer)



    Not bad for 18 quid.
