Here's some pics of my Lenco L75. Built by Dewalt, it was made by choosing the best bits from two early 1960's L75s. The standard top plate was replaced with a new custom designed stainless steel one, painted in hotrod candy apple red. The visible gap in the platter (due to the new top plate...

I am in shock. He was a legend. Taught me everything I know about records players and vinyl placback. What a loss!

I am indeed. Running an Exclamé 150 on Tannoy Saturn S10s. Love it. Ping me for details.

Count me in PTA!

I am at a bit of a crossroads and need some input. I currently use a Raspberry Pi with Roon endpoint software to connect two DAC's to my Roon server. I run a Mytek Brooklyn DAC+ and Lavaudio DS600. It is mainly for Bluetooth for pals to quickly play me a song from Spotify, Youtube music etc. My...

I have a Pi 3 running Dietpi with Roon endpoint installed. The Pi is Ethernet connected to my network. I connect two DAC's to it via USB. A basic Lavaudio DS600 Bluetooth DAC and a Mytek Brooklyn DAC+. The Mytek is an MQA decoder. On the 2L Master playlist on Tidal, the Mytek displays the MQA...

A spectacular cartridge.

Completed a killer desktop (to me at least LOL) this weekend. Tannoy S8LR bookshelf speakers with 8" Dual Concentric drivers. Arylic A50+ streaming amplifier. iFi Audio Zen DAC Nice cables Roon running into the Zen DAC Thanks to all the guys who contributed with sweet deals. Now show off your...

I drive my Saturn S10 Tannoys with a Valve Audio Exlam? 150. You get the valve goodness on the preamp and the grip and control of solid state devices. Mine did 180 Watt RMS on the bench at Schalk. I have owned lots of Tannoys, they in my opinion, love a bit more power and control. Sent from my...

Managed to get some time yesterday to connect and configure everything. Works perfectly first time. Like automagically. Super chuffed that the combo of a 10 year old receiver and brand new TV works so well. Thanks guys! Sent from my SM-G780F using Tapatalk

Mods - Please move if this is the wrong space for this question. I am getting a new 4K TV for the first time in 11 years ;-) I have an Amazon Firestick 4K and would love to take advantage of the resolution on the new panel. So my current plan is to connect the 4K Firestick directly to the TV...

Tonteldoos Thanks!

I currently have a Vanguard as per the title on loan from Heinrich and GECO. Any owners willing to provide some feedback and ownership experience? I am using the unit with a Mytek Brooklyn+ DAC as the preamp. It does a great job on the digital side, but the line input on the Mytek is clearly a...

I need a balanced cable for my headphones as above. The cable connects using 2x 2.5mm male connectors to the drivers and terminates in a 3.5mm male connector. I?d like a cable that ends in a 4.4mm Pentaconn balanced connector. That way I can used the headphones with the 4.4mm connector on my iFi...

What is your phono preamp budget? I took the plunge and bought an iFI Zen phono. It is a giant killer, catering for anything from MM to low output MC cartridges. About R 3500 odd. Ping @Francois, he can help. Agree with FDLSYS on the turntable. For the money, I?d buy the Linn from @wjvanrens in...

When Francois (FranZAR) told me the new yesterday afternoon, I was too shocked to write anything here. I had the absolute pleasure of knowing Guillaume for a number of years. When I got my first NAD Rega derived TT, he helped with the servicing, motor mod etc. Throughout my TT journey, he was...

I have a Zen phono and it is the best phono I have had in my system. I use it with a Technics SP10 turntable fitted with the IsoKinetik version of the Jelco 12" 750 series tonearm and a ZYX Bloom3 low output MC cartridge. It sounds bloody fantastic. Sent from my SM-G780F using Tapatalk
