Very nice Bjorn. Nice to have keepsakes like that with some fond meaning to them.
When does daylight savings start in the UK? We’re still on summer time.
We are on it today, clocks went forward last night.
They start early to try and capture the one week of summer
But it works………only a fine drizzle of rain today😂
If it is looks like a cable thread, behaves like a cable thread and is even called ‘speaker cable’, it probably is a cable thread:
What a day!
Glad you enjoyed it… back to work tomorrow.
Updated my “Naim gear” spreadsheet yesterday after watching some local auctions of gear. It’s a bit scary how the spend adds up, over 10 years in my case, and the loss made on selling older gear as one upgrades. I actually came away from the process quite frustrated, although I have lovely gear. I guess it’s a case of seeing the value over the cost, assuming it’s affordable within the overall vortex of balance in life
You’re braver than me I’ve never wanted to consider the financial outlay especially now. The only thing I know that my last 3 major upgrades have cost around $40k.
NDX2/525/Fraim $25k, Core $5k and speakers $10k. That’s only the last 3 years.
I forgot my DAC-V1 $2k.
It’s scary. That’s more than I spent on my Suzuki Jimny.
That seems cheap if new, it includes the 252 and SC
It’s definitely so scary for sure
I reckon over the last 20 years I would be in the $200k + mark
Not so bad when you take out 2 turntables totalling say $100k which includes power supplies , phonos etc
Oh well but what enjoyment
Better than cars I reckon
There were trade ins that were worth something those days.
I’d be scared to go back that far. I can’t even remember what my first outlay was. I do know it took me just over a year to payback.
Also it looks cheap cause you’ve been buying 500 series.
I’ve kept most of my invoices but not really game to add them up
Yep most of the 500 series was Harry’s ex demos from memory so that helped
I’ve not only hidden them from me but also the other half.
Buggered if I know what I’ll do if I eventually live in one place
You’ve got spare rooms.
