Been away a few days and FFS.
Plug stuff in, listen to it, change 1 component listen again.
What's the problem? This is a bunch of people listening to phono stages, we are not performing open heart surgery or sending a man to the moon, its supposed to be a bit of fun.
I once did a listening session at David Price's house, we did not see which amp was playing ALL 6 amps sounded different, it was easy to hear. If David had said right its the NAD amp next would that change our perception of what it sounded like? Nah.
See some of you on Sunday hopefully!

You can't change how people treat you or what they say about you. All you can do is change how you react to it.

No thanks, I was born and bred on tape, can't be bothered with the Faff now. But a good one is about the best you can get as long as the tapes are good.
If I have a choice I really don't want to stare at the advertising all day.

Hi Dave,
Was hoping to get up to the bake off on Sunday but unfortunately it clashes with the BVWS swap meet/auction at Royal Wootton Bassett this weekend.
Hope the day goes well and perhaps the Bristol contingent can come up at another time.
