Re: Unboxing P20/A20

Gosh, Richard. Gosh! I have a standard record I play with new gear. Candy by Lee Morgan. It all dates back to the time when a friend bought a Leben, and the first record we played was Candy, and it sounded awful. Just awful. Well with the P20/A20 it sounded fine. Just fine. You said, I would be sho...

Re: Unboxing P20/A20

Were you a snooker referee in a former life??
No.... I am probably being dense - but I don't get the reference..... Maybe it can't be explained?

Re: Unboxing P20/A20

Moving slowly forward.... It is cold out, so I am letting the boxes slowly warm up to room temperature before I turn them on. But I must say I am impressed by what was in-the-box. (Open the box/Open the box) . Well packed. Lovely cables with nice terminals. The pre-amp was smaller than I imagined an...

Re: Unboxing P20/A20

:guiness; ARRIVED! :guiness; Have to find my knife and gloves again.... I am rather reminded of an old cartoon about a man and his dog. The dog is depressed. "I can't keep on living like this, " he says. "I am so depressed. I want to end it all". The Man says, "Here's your b...

Unboxing P20/A20

One of the joys of Hifi is the unboxing.... Tradition requires: A sleepless night White Gloves Stanley Knife A Box At the moment I've got the gloves, I've got the knife - but no bloody box. And the postal van has just whizzed past me - without even a nod or a wink. The horse did look tired though. S...

Re: General banter
