    Some help for a second system looking for some good used (old) stuff.

    Hello everybody, I'm new here ;) I'm asking you some opinions/comments for a second system I'd like to setup in my bedroom.

    Interesting article.... Old school hifi and what it offers

    It's about time we had another NS1000m refurb...

    This -  Is the unmistakable face of a man at the beginning of another NS1000 journey.  So, these are a little worse for wear, my last ones were actually quite nice before I started in comparison. Someones done some strange stuff with the inputs on the back that I'll have to undo but...

    High reflectivity CD-R's - do they exist?

    My vintage Pioneer PD-91 plays red book CDs perfectly. My Arcam CD players also play CD-R but the Pioneer doesn't like them - they sound perfect but the music is interrupted by spikes/stutters a few times a minute and I'm concerned I might do some damage to the player. (FYI: all my CDs have...

    Vintage Lowther PM6s renovated to original spec

    One pair of GENUINE vintage specification late 50s/early 60s LOWTHER PM6s. I do not refer to them as PM6As, simply because, during this period, PM6s only came supplied with ALNICO magnets. (The low quality ceramic magnets - denoted as -C - only arrived after Hansen and Hopps took over Lowther...

    KEF 105 IIs

    Nice pair of 105 IIs. Cosmetically not 100%, but perfectly acceptable given their age. With a little work the Dalek heads could be resprayed and the cabinets re-stained to make them a complete and unbounded joy to behold. The overload/aiming LEDs in both heads still work. The troublesome...

    Fully functioning Yamaha CR1000 receiver. All switches present and working silently, tuning LEDs and meters working as they should do. It was recently fettled by the excellent John Hollingdale who replaced the output transistors. Sonically it is as it should be, with a gutsy and admirably...
