    Newbie

    Hi everyone.
    My equipment consists of Sony TC880-2 reel to reel, Sansui AU-70, Quad 11's, home made Mullard 5-10 amps, speakers are home brew Sub with 14 feet of tuned pipe as a window seat with 100 watt RMS FET amp, flat from 16 Hz to 50 Hz, Wharfdale 8.3/8.2's. Technics CD, JVC LF-66 D drive, with AT120E/T just fitted. At last enjoying my Telarc direct cut discs from 1975-1979!. Nice to hear the cannon in the 1812 at last !
    Look forward to group activity.

    Welcome

    That's quite the eclectic rig you're running there. Glad to see our friends from across the pond chiming in. The more the merrier I say.

    Thanks everyone.
    Its an age thing with me, most of my gear is nostalgic and at 63 although still flat in both ears to 13kHz, guess there is no point in spending money on some of the new stuff if I am not going to hear it!!. We have a dealer on the South coast here who sells stuff to 80 year olds with hearing aids LOL.
    Wow Joe, that is amazing, I have seen my headshell going flying on earlier setups with that disk, but the AT120 is doing a good job at 1.4gms.

    Sorry long time no blog.
    Just fitted 2 new o/p transformers to my Sansui AU-70, one went O/c, found UK company that has original drawings for these, reasonably priced, work a treat, the TC880-2 sounds fabulous through it.
