Lovely wind-up HMV Gramophone playing 78s at the Milestones Museum in Basingstoke. Sounded excellent.

On the recommendation on this thread, I have tried Dark Days Exit on tidal. I spent most of Saturday listening it to, stunning music. How did I miss it until now !!

Just trying to find a physical copy now (which looks like it may be hard).

Thank you so much for your reply. A friend of mine plays his music through Dynaudio C2 Platinum and a lot of what you describe I hear with him as well. Very, very nice and definitely an upgrade path I would like to follow if the funds become available in the future. :blush:

Will do that on friday as am snowed under with work commitments. Look forward to doing the XPS2 vs 555 comparison.

Your iPhone or other type has an edit function, on the iPhone it’s an icon on the top left hand side. :+1:

Well, I did say it was coming :grin:. Also, the Core has moved from top right (used to live next to Lingo 1) to a new mini quadraspire rack to the left which hides the WiFi router and associated wires. It also provides shelving so I can try out an English electric switch (just using the fritzbox router provided by ISP at the moment). Next stop, new cartridge :man_facepalming: As the 10-year old (though little used for the last 4-5 years) dynavector I have isn’t exactly up to the job of making the most of the Radikal exakt, keel and urika (oh yes and Karousel). The first big splurge on the lp12 since I got it in 1994

In a mood for a vintage silver - only 40 years old.

That is so pretty. Very nice.

I like the way that gear was designed to look ‘technical’ none of this modesty thing going on, it shouts “I’m really complicated and clever” I like it.
