Adverts.ie, buyandsell etc etc. Unforutnately theres lots of builders out of work and theres a lot of builder tools etc up for sale. They will come with 110V plugs (special round ones) so you may have to factor in those. For the size they will be cheap - but its worth searching on farnell for any transformers that may be on sale.
Oh yeah, those boxes are poxy yellow colour, so a can of paint might be good!

OK,
I've taken the liberty of assembling the email addresses of those who have expressed interest so far - so if there is some other outage, at least we'll have some contact details.
So things are progressing nicely for this celebration. I have 2 rooms set up, one will have undecided power amp, Pass B1, buffalo and pass D1 dacs, pearl phonostage with lundahl step up transformers, Shigaclone CDP, Teres turntable with air bearing arm and Horn speakers.
Other room will have pass F5, valve preamp, NOS DAC, Squeezebox, another CDP to be confirmed, Pass Ono phonostage, lenco TT and the stacked quads.
So bring your CDs, vinyl or FLAC/WAV files on a drive and we can hook it up.
Any other requests, let me know!!! We'll have tea/coffee/biccies along the way!!!!

I'll try to get along to this. I have a few records I haven't listened too in a while so I'd love the opportunity to give them a spin. What time are we talking?
