Some of us enjoy changing cartridges, whereas for others, it's dressing gowns

I like listening to different types of equipment. I don't tinker because I don't really know the first thing about changing a cart or changing tubes. But I do know what I like the sound of and when I like the sound of something. I mean it's true you do have to change things around and have a listen to different stuff. I love looking at the different carts we get coming and the variety of turntables, arms etc. I guess we are lucky in that respect because we get to hear so many different things for example we have a Graham Phantom that is going to be fitted to Clearaudio, and a Kuzma arm that we received today. I haven't heard any of these arms, so in order for me to have a listen, this involves tinkering. So I understand why some people do tinker, and others like to listen to the music.
Just a little off topic, anyone ever heard a Shelter 9000, I heard one for the first time last week, and thought it sounded lovely. That is the first time I have even seen one. Bloody lovely, Dom has also received 3 EMT 948, again something I have never heard or seen before. Now, the EMTs will need some fettling and tinkering because they do need servicing, but I am looking forward to have a listen to one.
My point is that sometimes it's good to tinker, but other times when I am listening to a very enjoyable piece of vinyl and Dom has to check something, I wanna scream lol
