I was supposed to be watching this at the Cliffs Pavillion, Southend, this evening. Instead I get an email telling me the tour has been cancelled with immediate effect and we’ll get a refund, thank you very much.

Bloody tough business to be in. All those poor sods now looking for another job, both on stage and behind the scenes.

A very rainy day in County Durham, so decamped to the gym for some Turbo Training in sunny Holland!

Listening to Screen Violence by Chvrches, a great workout album.

Listening to Stephen Fretwell Lines EP on Airpod pro thingies over Arc from Roon in my local, after lovely lunch with nephew & family. Room to myself for the moment, so not as antisocial as it sounds.

How did you get the room to yourself? Did you start explaining the differences between NC and OC preamps?

You appear to have a room about the same size as mine which is 7ft 8 x 11ft 2.
I love my small room, it makes for an incredibly engaging listen. You will need to do a lot of tweaking to speaker positioning and moving your listening chair back and forth to dial in a good sound. I found that putting the speakers into the corners didn’t work for me, the bass was overwhelming. My Linn Sara’s are about 7-10cm from the wall with about 10 degrees of toe in. Bass is well extended and controlled.

You’re right, corners are different entity in terms of acoustics vs the wall, speakers should be specifically designed to work well in the corners. Some Audio Note therefore:

Listened to this today at my dealer. First time I heard Naim with Focal. Really good, I must say.

Great view, some wine, good sound and a super album - can’t ask for much more than that!
