    Default Hello from Andy in Portsmouth

    Hi everyone, just getting back into listening to vinyl after many years. My system at the moment is a Rega Planar 3, Monitor Audio Bronze 2, QED240. The amp needs upgrading as soon as possible(Xmas pressie). Music taste is pretty varied AC/DC, Placebo, Psychedelic Furs, Pink Floyd, Blondie, Dance Music just about anything really.

    Hi Andy. Welcome to AOS.

    If you want opinions on potential system upgrades, you could start a thread in the Blank Canvas section and outline your ideas.

    Join in the chat and get to know the members, there's plenty going on and it's a friendly place.


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    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!”

    Hello Andy, and welcome to AoS. Under the Musical Compositions is thread are general music "What are you playing right now", and similar threads under Jazz/Blues and Classical, great sources to find new and interesting music.

    Cheers
