    Default Greetings from France

    I am Bruno from Lyon.
    I have been an avid reader of your forum for a while now. Especially on the subjects of Tannoy DC and MC cartridges step-up.
    I belong to a few French forums specifically onto vintage hi-fi.
    System wise I run a full vintage set-up, Garrard, SME, Ortofon , Marantz and Tannoy.
    Music: much of everything but leaning mostly toward rock, independent, Jamaican, blues, electronic, etc. Nowadays mostly on vinyl.
    Looking forward to share these interests with you all.
    Cheers

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Thank you all,

    Andy, you were nearby, hoped you liked the poulet de Bresse . Funny, I posted a pic in the cheese thread, taken at a restaurant near Bourg.
    Yes I'll throw in some pictures of my system. A quick peek for now:
