Ordered a set of Bill's Canare 4S11 cables & jumpers on Sunday, they arrived today. Whilst I was pretty happy with the performance of my Tannoy Revolution XT6F's, Bill's cables have just tightened everything up, definite improvement over the 20+ yr old Phoenix Gold 12AWG I was using... & at the price they were a fantastic yet, inexpensive upgrade... thankyou Bill, lovely stuff, beautifully made too...

Spent much of the day putting our collection of much neglected 7" singles through the US cleaner... They've all come up very well considering their age & decades of filth & mistreatment. Interesting listening... Kate Bush, Duran Duran, Gilbert O' Sullivan, Irene Cara, Genghis Kahn, Pseudo Echo, Abba, Incantations & many, many other both well known & obscure artists & songs The absolute gem of the collection... my wife in her year 1 choir some 50yrs ago... can't wait to play that to the MIL later this month...🤣

Misfits: Hate Breeder (Bootleg) Not a particularly good recording I have to say but, novel owning a bootleg vinyl recording no less.

What in Analogue Have You Bought Today?
FNQ Outcast replied to stevoz's topic in Vinyl and Turntables
Nice little spend at Rocking Horse records today whilst enjoying a brief stopover in BrisVegas... Pink Floyd: Wish you were here (Remaster) Billie Eilish: When we fall asleep, where do we go? Metallica: Master of Puppets (Remaster) - replaces my outgassed damaged original... sadly, I lost hope of finding an excellent condition original pressing at a sensible price. The Rolling Stones: Hot Rocks 1964 - 1971 ( Remaster) Mike Oldfield: 5 Miles Out (Japanese issue Gatefold) looking forward to getting home Friday & giving them a spin... -
I've been busy adding to my LP collection, investing in a DIY ultrasonic cleaner & discovering a level of detail I never new existed in albums I've listened to many, many times before...

My darling wife & I have been together for 30 years... I have a number of expensive hobbies... Astronomy, Motorcycle (an Indian Chieftain), Bass guitar (I have a few), photography & in the past, flyfishing & boat. I've just spent close to $10k on new amp, turntable & speakers (some of it secondhand/factory refurb) although, in my defence it's the first 'new' hifi gear I've bought in 20 years... like others have suggested, I buy things to last rather than constantly swapping and changing.. we don't have the income to do otherwise really... & I'd struggle to justify it to mys
