I did that in the demo room this afternoon. With the Sun low, I could clearly see the dust and occasional cobweb. Got out my feather duster and set to.

My only New Year Resolution, hifi wise, is just to buy more music... I won't be touching the 'system' one bit... well apart from new power/speaker cables which is already arranged

I'll stop in from time to time and do more lurking than posting. There's no point in having this gear if your not going to enjoy. I'm now happy to spend more time hunting, learning, and enjoying vinyl. I get more satisfaction from finding or learning about an unusual or rare album than the geeky equipment side of things nowadays. I might do the odd restoration thread or review and I might even get out and come to some bake-off's.Why, Andy? You're an integral part of AoS, and AoS isn't *just* a hi-fi forum...
It surprises/amazes me sometimes how some of our regulars (and long-term members) rarely engage in the off-topic, more 'human' areas of the forum, where others get to know more about the PERSON behind the hi-fi system. I've never understood such 'aloofness'.
Therefore, if I may be so bold to suggest, why not make your new year's resolution to engage more in the community side of AoS, or music section, and reduce your discussion of hi-fi?
Marco.

Forums can be easily influential which can side track your projects if you let it be.. Ive learned to forget about Hi-Fi technicalities & just concentrate on music.
I dont & never will take Vinyl & cassette as a serious music reproducer but i will always use it because of the sound it creates & also most importantly the feel good factor due to the importance of Nostalgia to me & how the period system looks..
I do however spend most my time in the spare room doing stuff where i generally just stick a pair of headphones on & listen to CD but still i aint paying 100% attention to the music.. so i can fully understand why Marco aint hit the power button for a couple years..

Welcome to the 'dark side' of just enjoying music for music's sake, careful though, it's habit forming
Loved the comment about getting fed up with dicking around, never thought I'd see the day!

Nothing really, as things are very fine as is, but one thing I have been trying to avoid is buying that damned Octave V70 SE tubed integrated that I unfortunately listened to on my Duevel Venus. Quite a sublime pairing. Sigh....Happy New Year all!
I really should be doing more “dicking around” actually.
