My latest toy arrived the other day and been busy setting it up so people can hear it tomorrow at the next Yorkshire Hi-Fi Club meeting. System for the day should be............. Garrard 401 in Carl Ellis plinth | 12" Jelco arm with low slung counterweight | Ortofon magnesium headshell | DS Audio Master1 optical cartridge system Soulution 5 series pre-amp Nick Gorham 211 valve power amplifier Maxonic field coil loudspeakers IsoTek Systems EVO3 Nova power conditioner Tellurium Q statement speaker cables The optical cartridge is quite something.

I didn't know Nick produced a 211 amp. I guess it's good, then?

Hope you had a good day. Would have been interesting to hear that combination, so different from mine.

I wasn't there yesterday - I was at the footie

We usually have a theme, last time was turntables and before that was phono stages, the next one will probably be DAC's so feel free to come up and bring you offerings to the next one. At least 2 attendees yesterday came from over 4 hours drive away. I have about 6 DAC's so it will be an interesting comparison next time.

You'll annoy the grammar Nazis with your inappropriate use of the apostrophe. Or maybe that's what you intended to do .....
