Hi all

[ell-ess-dee]

As you can see I'm a long time lurker and as there's something I'd like in the Ads section I thought I'd say hello.

Been into Hi-Fi since my late teens. My first system consisted of an old Rotel tuner amp and some Mission 700 speakers with a basic Aiwa tape deck as that was my source. Had numerous upgrades since then consisting of Mission, JPL, Tannoy, B&W speakers, Amps ranged from Marantz, Rotel, Audiolab, and Tag, CD Players mostly Arcam and went the Meridian transport>DAC route.

Final (maybe) and now system is MF A3.2 Pre > MF A308 Power. MF KW Dac driving some nice Xenon Amphion MK2 speakers. Main source is computer based.

Really don't get the time to listen to it much now, actually not at all since my first child arrived more than four years ago. Only had a couple of sessions since then.

Would like to go back to the headphone listening as the use of my Hi-Fi is now pretty much redundant. Used to have a a rig which was a pair of Senny HD650 with a lovely dedicated headphone valve amp (match made in heaven), God knows why I got shot of it considering the price rise of the Senny's.

Outside of Hi-Fi i'm trying to get back in the fitness regime. I like watching footy and Darts (although there's too much of it nowadays). Reading wise I like the paranormal and esoteric stuff..
