Hi Mike,
How lucky you are, two rooms and two systems. Many of us are filled with envy.

I had to if I wanted to listen to music and not watch TV. Budget dictates that it is only a LP system, and the room is small, but I can enjoy music in the evening instead of watching TV.

Define 'small'? We all live in shoeboxes in the UK you know.

I live in a small townhome or row house and my analogue music system is in a room that is 12'10"W x 10'D x 9'H ... or in the UK 3.9m X 3m X 2.7m

Well that's encouraging. That's about the same size as my little Man Cave.

They sound as good as they look!
Specs: 18hz- 22Khz, 94db efficiency
Same drivers as Polk SDA's but very easy to drive.

I envy the clean and uncluttered layout of both your systems. Congratulations.

Trust you have a few more LPs than shown!

Do you actually sit in your Breuer chair? I always imagined that with use, the leather strips would stretch and become misshapen. I would love to own one - the height of Bauhaus (?) cool!

Hi Mike, I am thinking of going phono direct into power amp. You obviously think it a good way to go. May I ask your opinion about the PS Audio as it is one I am considering along with the Quad which has a volume control. Thanks for help.
