Hi im Nanook (not The Moon).

I enjoy reading hifi forums and hifi and music.........Jazz especially.

looking to purchase another Valve amp soon (el34) so if anyone has any recommendations that would be appreciated.....

Speakers may be a tricky load though 83db 15ohm.

Hi there, are you into DIY at all ?

And where are you, it may help with regard to listening to other peoples kit.

Hi pre65 I live in the North.

Not into DIY, although I did manage to build a WAD valve kit once.
Sounded rather nice for a couple of weeks then for some strange reason it just stopped working..!!!

It's not a trick question Nanook, I just thought you might be near to another member(s) , we have a few regional groups.

Andrew.....things move at a slower pace up North.

I read the news and cant quite believe its the Samsung Galaxy 9.
We are still awaiting the G6 (I think thats the one that explodes).

I still miss the days of the phone box.

Ah - the valve phone box. A bit more dangerous, but beautiful vocal tone.
