Speakers were built by @cheekyboy at Wyndham Audio. (CH2's). They are fantastic, easily the best I've had in any system. Here is a link to them https://www.wyndhamaudio.com.au/products/wyndham-audio-ch2-loudspeaker Thanks scuzzii. Checked the link. Impressive. Just goes to show that you don't need 3 or4×8" speakers and a tweeter to get the job done. It still amazes me, what l get out of 5.5" speaker cone on my PMCs. Like your's, it's all in the cabinet construction. And Keith is one smart dude. That's a side l didn't know about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good memories I was born in Yorkshire. In a little village called Holmfirth (where they made the program, "Last of the Summer Wine."). Went back there recently after an absence of 50 years. It is a quaint village and nothing like l remembered it. Beer/Ale was great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have this album on CD if I want the "perfect digital experience" - but prefer vinyl out of choice. I have a good Turntable and Cartridge & phono pre-amp - just sadly sometimes you get vinyl that can be a little disappointing. I do prefer original issues most of the time though. This vinyl also has some what patchy marks through the vinyl so suspecting maybe a faulty lot? I have a Technics 1200GR, Turntable, Orotofon Bronze M cart, Dyanvector Pre Phono, Marantz Amp & B&W speakers. Nice one April. I didn't know you had up-graded your tt. I think you had an Audio-Technica before? I really need to pay more attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to pay more attention. I did indeed have the Audio Technica for about two months to test the waters on vinyl, but brought a new Technics 1200GR late last year when they came to Australia again. A forum member here helped me set it up properly along with the Oroton Bronze M so has been pretty sweet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi April. I don't think would be an upgrade to my MoFi Ultradeck tt (at 4k). Though some on this site would argue differently. But your tt has a lot of admirers and many wouldn't buy anything else. And l must admit it sure is purty. TT PORN (yeh l know...it's a male thing). I have never heard a Technics tt. So l can't compare. But l did compare it side by side with a Clearaudio Concept and a Rega 6 and l thought the MoFi sounded better in every regard...by a good margin. Well to my ears anyway. It's the quietest tt l have ever heard. So yes, I'm more than happy with it. As with most hifi components, it's always a subjective matter anyway. Going to post a photo. No reason. Like most. Just trying to pad out the day. Happy Listening April. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very happy with it. I wanted my upgrade to be a "keeper" so went straight to the top within my budget. Of course it all comes down to preference. I have not heard of any others apart from the ones I had and the Rega 6. Your setup looks lovely btw. I only posted the link as someone asked me about it - no other reason.......
