Shiny brand new second hand things in my system today

#3794

I guess they were designed as a system. The angle will no doubt help dispersion into the room, and the foam helps deaden the steel ringing :slight_smile:

#3795

No Shakti pron :disappointed_relieved:

#3796

Which is why the second photo is blurred. Putting one back in would snap the image back into focus…

#3797

I’ve had another wan…look and all is right with the world

#3798

Finally got some cheap new speakers.

Heco Celan 300 which always impressed me when I listened to them at Nicks (myrman).
I even borrowed the stands Nick used to use with them.:grinning:

#3799

Love mine.

Cheap, but really good for the money.

#3800

Liked the pair I had a while back :+1:

#3801

SJS MM phono stage.

Arrived knackered thanks to a fuckwit courier but have managed to repair it myself.

@sjs you weren’t lying about that AN silver wire being a bastard to solder, those individual strands are thinner than mosquito pubes.

Do you use the +2db terminals?

I find them much more engaging in that mode, though in an ideal world I wish it was maybe +1.5db instead.

#3803

No, in my very small room I found them too much.

#3804

I can understand that - it is just a touch too much in my room but I definitely prefer it’ll the standard config.

Not here yet.
Just need a little help from a friend to CNC the front to accommodate a power switch and an led (on psu, not the phono box). It’s 10mm thick so needs a decent job doing.

And maybe a logo?

#3808

That’ll look really smart.

#3809

Does it sound good?

#3810

Very tidy work :+1:

#3811

Apparently.

I haven’t got it yet. Still with the chap who built it for me.

#3812

The new-to-me shiny things currently bathing my ears.

Valvet Ls1 power supply and preamp, with E182CC valve (centre)

Valvet E1r monos.
