Jim IS going, isn’t he ?
Looks like he binned it off
Yeah, it’s very disappointing. I dearly love Lopwell weekend, indeed I’ve been to every one…
…but due to reasons, I can’t make it this time
Have a great weekend
I couldn’t do it this year. Hopefully I’ll make it in 2026.
I’ve sent over the Gold Cape.
Whoever wins it. Wear it with pride.
And @browellm sat hello to Tarquin for me
Is there a definitive (small d) kit list?
I offered to bring a M7 (line) but not sure if it is required
I was considering it, but as I’ve just had a mole removed from my back, that would be rather unwise.
Can they do that with Stronzettos?
Looks like:
Ritchie’s speakers
Guys deathy amps / CD player / New Cartridge / Vida
My deck + SUT maybe EM/IA if needed?
Your M7 ?
Not sure what else but extension cables, small tool kit, spare cables are always handy.
Not sure what this is?
Phono stage?
Wayne is also lending me his SIT amp which JB is bringing down
Passive volume control - Guys amps are sensitive so will bring and try in case the M7 is lively
So do we need a phono stage?
Is your M7 line only? I can bring a Vida or valve phono if need be.
(EDIT) sorry, missed you saying it was Line only.
Yes, I’ve just delivered that to John who is very kindly bringing it down.
It is a SissySIT - a Zen Mod’s clone of Nelson Pass’s First Watt SIT-3, using Tokin VFETs.
It has been further pimped with some Audio Note Niobium bits and some enhancements to the power caps etc. 18 w/ch class A and sounded both sweet and holographic with my AGs.
Feel free to try it out.
M7 required!
I’ll stick the F117 Nighthawk phonostage in the bag
Anyone want me to bring sharpening stones like last year?
The house Axe could always use a little help
