    Looks very nice mate, clean and uncluttered. We all like lots of exotic boxes with glowing valves etc but sharp, unfussy lines are great.

    Thanks chaps.

    A bit too cosy at the moment, as the power amp sure kicks out some heat

    A bit like someone described MY set-up....''like having giant headphones"?
    I think it's the resonance from the VW van that helps?

    Looks good Mike, lots of knob to twiddle still. What’s the parallel tracker TT, I go to recognise it? What speakers are on the end of it all?
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner

    Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive

    Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp

    Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones

    Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links


    I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

    Thanks Alan.

    It's a Technics SL-7 Adrian. I still have 2 of them and a Technics SL-10.

    The speakers are Transmission Audio M1i's. They are a bit unusual, using dipole quad-ribbon tweeters with aperiodically damped Aluminium 5" woofers.
