Re: Brexit
Brexit has only started. It’s in its infancy at the moment. Big power games (political, international arm wrestling type) will continue for many more years between U.K. and E.U. Recently I read a article stating it’s no coincidence that in five years time the fish quota will be up for renegotiation....

Re: Hifi plans for 2021?
2021 Upgrade plans... nothing planned at the moment... but 2020 did have a bit of a journey.....with a rather interesting discovery too. I've been moving up, down & sideways over the last few years. But in 2020 I tried a Audiolab 8000 pre amp (with class A gain stage) partnered with a Primary A3...

Re: A turntable, finally?
Well done on getting / having the digital force gauge. TBH, might be worthwhile taking those LP's with the sibilance issue to another member who has a good set up and having a go on their TT / amps / speakers etc Perhaps prior to doing so... make a written note of the Album / track / time that the s...

Re: Building some speakers
Great work Fran, thanks for sharing the pics.
I wonder would it be possible for somebody to loan you a pair of AP Kontrast speakers so that your new speakers could be tuned to the sound which you are seeking?
