Quote terrybooth Good grief, its been years. I have always had 'there but for fortune' in the collection but never listened to her much. Got onto MacTubes as soon as I read your post and downloaded lots to listen to. A quick listen tells me her voice is a bit penetrating and flat for me, pure thoug...

I don't think that was the point mate - the question was aimed at people with both and what they preferred. Of course different music, seems pointless to have both . I only have a couple of records duplicated on CD. So this is not scientific, it is more what is your preferred "go to" when...

I like that Michael Burks. Really proves that less can be more. Not flash, seems to be playing half the notes that usual suspects manage but musical as hell. As usual, thanks for he link :D

Nothing wrong with the look of any of them.......unless you sit them next to something like this :D http://i910.photobucket.com/albums/ac306/cyprusmemory/image_zpsfecbd552.jpg How I hate plywood plinths.

Thanks for your kind comments gentlemen. I think you underestimate what you do Richard. I am in total awe of anyone that designs and builds electronic stuff.

One fire in the front room which heats two rooms, one toasty and the other just comfortable. In the ki...

Welcome from me too.

I've just bought a Pioneer CD player (stable platter) on the Bay for £26. These things sound terrific to my ears, so why spend more? Valves and Quad 57s for me.

Not convinced by the snake oil salesmen then? What a strange chap!! :D

This is really hard as I travel by train into London most days a good book is a must but my favorite would be as follows SiFi All Dune books by Frank Herbert The Foundation Books by Asimov Fantasy Tolkien Add Anne McCaffrey's Dragon books and you have my favourite SciFi books too!! The continuation...

For a change, I am familiar with most of those!! Good stuff in there.

I have come back from Spain with food poisoning, I was shaking all the way home on the plane and spent most of the flight on the loo, and from the airport, with a temperature.
