Saying hello

[matthewpiano]

Hi all. I'm new here and just saying hello!

Just so you know where I'm up to hi-fi wise, my current system is:

Thorens TD150MkIIAB
Technics ST-GT550 RDS Tuner
Technics RS-BX501 Cassette Deck
Technics SL-PS670A CD Player
Rotel RA-01 Integrated Amplifier
Quad 11L Speakers

My next upgrade (following purchase of the Rotel amp today) will be the CD player - to a Rotel RCD-02 or its replacement, hopefully in the next couple of weeks. I am also considering one of the Sony SACD players, but will need to hear how it compares to the Rotel first.

I am a musician first, and hi-fi buff second - the latter serves the former! I have very eclectic musical tastes - classical, jazz, opera, rock/pop, folk, country, theatre. If its good then I like it!

Cheers for now!
Matt
