    I suppose it had to be reported, since News at Ten stopped doing their "and finally" spot. (so I'm told, I manage to avoid the news most of the time).
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    T/T: Inspire Monarch, X200 tonearm, Ortofon Quintet Blue. Phono: Project Tube Box CD: Marantz CD6006 (UK Edition); Amp: Musical Fidelity A5 Integrated.
    Speakers: Zu Omen Def, REL T9i subwoofer. Cables: Atlas Equator interconnects, Atlas Hyper 3.0 speaker cables

    T'other system:

    A/V:
    LG 55" OLED, Panasonic Blu Ray, Sony a/v amp, MA Radius speakers, REL Storm sub

    Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.

    Looks very very well made, solid and useful. Wish I had one (and a decent column drill); then i would make up a few bits and bobs for my audio system. Maybe even make a tonearm to my own design.

    There is a Mk3 for sale on eBay at a reasonable price:



    I'm tempted, but since the seller is in Spain, no doubt there will be a whole slew of extra costs now that we have left the EU. So I'll think I'll give it a miss.

    Looks rather nice.

    As I recall, the Unimat 3 and Unimat 4 are similar, the only difference being that production in UK ceased with the 3

    He's as thick and as ineffectual as the rest of the Cabinet.

    And we've still got over a year to put up with this self-interested, mendacious and totally useless bunch of politicians.
