    I’d forgotten about this thread as I thought Al had given up on his build, hopefully his enthusiasm will return and we will see some picture in the near future.

    I thought this thread had gone to sleep.

    As Adrian knows, I use a 120 year old slab of wood from a huge victorian sideboard to rest my equipment on (hence giving my steel rack to him!)
    That vid reminds me of once visiting a seller who had so much stuff he used a 'comparator' to switch from one thing to another

    Depends on what is not in that room ?

    As shown , I only see three pairs of speaker = I win hands down

    Quality on boxes = he wins

    Cant see any R2R's ? or TT's

    Quantity of boxes = I probably do win

    Over the last 5 ish years the quality of my boxes has improved

    He wins re cables , you can just see on the far left what looks like a national grid of wires

    I'm content with my bits

    PS , Hope the spelling is ok for you Barry

    There are several TTs behind the left-hand speaker. And I think there are 4 pairs of speakers: there is one small bookshelf speaker up on the left hand side. I assume it has a partner somewhere to the right.
