I inherited a nice B&O (well, 'nice' by my standards) many years ago - probably 1970s or 1960s vintage.. when I left home my parents binned it :'(

Ah well. I pretty much just listen to Spotify or the radio (DAB in the Skoda) these days anyway.

*awaits incoming barrage of abuse* ;D ;D

Yup - almost a year ago now! It was a more fuel-efficient replacement for the Ranger (which I still miss dearly.. loved that truck)..

Oh...so many analogys here!

Take a look on the strangest project I ever did!



That once was a Thorens Prestige. I restored it into mint condition.

It was the last Prestige that left Lahr many years after end of production.

I'll have you know that whilst in hospital earlier this week a lovely young nurse told me she thought she had the wrong patient because I don't look 40 :P

Got my Sony system back in the 80's with the turntable PSX600 after all these years just about to replace my Audio technica 70 cartridge with a 95e just arrived from Germany.Hoping there will be a sound improvement which would be a bonus and listen to my rock and roll collection!!

You beat me to it, DG; I was going to ask if he was under the impression that the nurse meant UNDER 40 - WRONG!!!   ;D
