Well hello again, i did join many moons ago. I had problems trying to sign onto the forum ( many times) and gave up. I have now registered again ( should have done that ages ago). Looking forward to joining in, especially with the music section.
Some may know me as Jollyfix from another forum.
Kit - Nothing special, but i enjoy what the bits i have do, and that is good enough for me, well for now anyway. Recently been using my FPS speakers again, much fun, difficult load, but sound good when set up right. Other speakers in use are from Duevel , Chario, AE, KEF, Mission. Amps -Rega, Alchemist, Akai, amongst few others. CD- Rega, Arcam Clearaudio turntable Many different cables- MIT, Mark Grant, VDH,Nordost, many more ...... Tuners, buffer stages, wadia dock, few other bits n bobs. Music- well everything, if it hits the spot then good for me Rock to Reggae, surf to soul, folk to funk, etc.

Hi Dave, I remember you, and welcome back, it's great that you finally found a way in! I hope you are well. I also seem to remember that you had an Alchemist Kraken - looks like you maybe still own it.

Are your FPS speakers that brand or some other flat panel speakers?

That brand Martin, strange things, plane wave speakers with subs. Rather odd , of late been using the Kraken and an old pro American CD player with them. Set up in the attic room , and pointing down the long side of the room. Sounding very good, on paper not so good, only 80db sensitivity , but 8ohm. but i go with how they sound, rather than print and they sound good, different, but good. Especially as i have been using the Duevel planets for some time now. They make a nice change. fps.tokyo/product/fs1premium/

Which Charios do you have?
I've had three pairs in my time. The best ones were my Academy II's. Still got the baby Syntar standmounts in boxes; they're so good I want to save them for a second system if I ever need one ...

Those FPS speakers are certainly different. Do post photos if you can.

Hello Dave Same here mate, i do not give two hoots what people thing about the strange systems i put together. I do have a serious problem with people that throw big money at over priced, over rated crap that have the cheek to pull pieces out of real world Hi-Fi.
