    Default I think I'm pretty much there (for now).

    For the first time in a long time I am really happy to leave everything as it is and spend money on music not kit. No major changes in the last few months, but I have added a Lehmann H/P amp and a pair of HD600s, which I am absolutely loving. I've got to spend a bit of time fine tuning, speaker placement is pretty plonk and go but I'm enjoying it so much I don't care.











    My apologies for the gigantic images.

    Werll , the orange mains lead would look better in white.


    It all looks great, lovely setup.
    My old Lehmann fits in well.

    It's the only mains lead I had that was long enough

    The Lehmann couldn't fit in better if it was purpose built, it's a very nice bit of kit too. It's definitely come to a good home

    Nice, neat and tidy looking system!

    Only one visual improvement left to do: tape the signal lead from the TT to one of the rack's vertical members, and the mains cable to the other. That way they will disappear from view to complete the cosmetics.

    Oh - and find a new white mains lead to replace the orange one.

    ... and you might like to try these if you want a bit more clarity and focus to the sound.

    “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!”

    Very nice, I came an inch from buying the same turntable. A clean looking set! I can see why you’re happy with it.

    Funnily enough tidying those cables is on my fine tune list still to do, but I only have green cable ties to hand so I'm going to pick up a couple of black ones.

    The orange cable is unfortunately a much more awkward job, it's a lot longer than it looks, it runs to the left of the rack round the wall to the squeezebox & DAC and the lamp. It's hidden in a plastic cable tidy against the skirting. I shall get round to it one day though
