    I'm ROSS.

    Hi All,

    I'm Ross from Scotland.

    Been a music lover for a long long time now, but only in the last few years decided to move up the hifi food chain.

    Started off with JVC, onto a Tag Mclaren 60i, Arcam Alpha 9, running gorgeous Spendor SP2's.

    Recently I have had the Lyngdorf SDAI275 Integrated, the EAR 834T integrated and now I have moved to valves and the EAR 859 Integrated.

    Cables / connects wise I have Townshend DCT300, VDH First Ultimate, Atlas Titan, Mark Grant, Ecosse MS2.3, NVA LS5, Van Den Hul Revelation.

    I have worked as a DJ and in music halls. Thousands of CDs and hundreds of Vinyl.

    They say variety is the spice of life. Nowhere is this more evident than in nature and the arts. Music makes the world go round. It certainly keeps mine spinning.

    My next two projects will be to match my EAR 859 to some nice high sensitivity speakers and get it to sing, maybe change the valves with some tube rolling, tweak the cables.

    Also to music garden.

    Right, thats me in, hello all look forward to chatting about the finer things...

    Ross
