Bisguittin Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Today I was struck by the realisation that my audio system has been assembled from all over. While we generally recognise that audio products may have their origin in Britain, the US, Europe, Australia, Japan, (increasingly) China etc, I'm talking about where things have lived their active lives. Currently in my system, the turntable, tonearm and cartridge have always done their business here in Adelaide.(Goldmund Studietto, Souther SL3, Dynavector DV20x) However, courtesy of the members of this forum, my preamp has come from Perth (Peachtree Grand Pre) and my power amp (Parasound Halo A23) has lived in Mackay QLD. Meanwhile, my Duntech Statesman speakers have been obtained from someone in Melbourne. None of this would of course have been possible without smartphones and internet. How about you? Where have your treasures come from? Leon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
