I feel bad for GenX'ers that missed out on the 60s and 70s.
@bkmaxey - I agree with you.Though I do feel for those that only know a connected world - the internet and social media.The music industry seems so completely gamed now that it’s difficult to come up organically through talent. You could be the mo...

Hi thecarpathian - they chose me. An acquaintance had an old new pair so I grabbed them to compare with the JJs that came with the kit. First time I’ve rolled. Sound is marvellous. Why do you ask?

Just pipping in from the sidelines because this this thread is getting long in the tooth and needs to be closed out...I took some earlier poster’s advice on board and bought some Red Breast Irish whiskey and woke up to a Rega turntable receipt and...

Thank you jfuquay for the sage advice! A $4000 accidental amp purchase would be my dream as i’d also be single again and have plenty more time to enjoy the accident!Not assembling anything just yet. Just plotting and building it in my head at this...

Just opened the Elekit box. Interesting. A few more bits of parts than I imagined, to be honest. Kidding sit down. They say only 4.5hrs to build. I reckon 5

Look, I’ve never claimed to not be an idiot and I do appreciate everyones time and advice.I’ve only purchased active studio monitors the last 20 years or so, except for the Kefs. Separate components are all new to me.

You’re a cheeky lot.Have I not made it clear this was a one off aberration? Which I actually now have peace with due to forum member's constructive chastising and helpfulness. So thanks all. The Elekit arrived today. Hooray! Will post pics once I’...

I’m yet to build the elekit - hoping it arrives today for a weekend project. Quite the bargain if you order the kit from the distributor. Does anyone know if you can preamp the streaming signal from a streaming amp? FWIW - i don’t normally drink o...

Hi and thank you for the reply MC. I did find a review where they ran that amp into A2 and allgood. I’m glad as I’d be eyeing off the A2s for months and made a low ball offer for which was accepted! I had no real intention of buying speakers. Spea...
