My Mum had her 3 weekly blood test yesterday and has been summoned to see the Doctor tomorrow due to some concerns. Also has a bladder infection yesterday, and is on treatment for that now. I’m going to go with her, as she says everything is serious, and I don’t know which on the list of things to take more seriously (unfortunately she is something of a hypochondriac and I don’t won’t to miss anything more important, as there had been a lot going on recently, if that makes sense?). She’s 86, so time is ticking along.
Yes, I have my fingers crosse good lady . for Igahman , and have noted we haven’t heard from him. I hope things are improving for him and his wife and family
The water has stopped running into the garage at 8pm (it started at 10am). I’ve been sweeping it out every half hour. Having a whisky now to celebrate.
The whole thing sounds better than Elton’s gig on Sunday. I don’t play Dire Straits much but they’re great recordings to test your hi fi. The Neats have lots of deep controlled bass. Got a friend who’s looking to spend some money with Harry coming over on Friday it’ll be interesting to see what he has to say. Also Mrs Pete’s away from tomorrow morning till lunchtime on Tuesday.
This sounds way better than than one would think @Bevo. 1980’s Rega Planar 3 into a 552. WTF, it’s lovely! Do you use an isolation platform on your LP12?
Yes that may well work I would think. The Rega’s don’t require as much isolation as the Linn’s but I still think you would achieve some sonic benefit with that platform , and as you say it will tidy it up from a visual point of view
Then you’ll be on your way to continue up the TT ladder ha ha
Don’t panic guys, there’s nothing in the Rega range that is a better match visually with Naim classic range, so it’s not going anywhere. It was serviced a few years ago, new belt, posh blue mat , and a better cart. It would just be nice to have it sitting higher to match the 552. It’s made in NZ and is under $500.
Now about this 552. With the Fraim base, it’s just exceptional with the NDX2/555PS/300. Today it just found it’s magic. I can’t believe really that I have it, it was such an excellent buy. Now that I’ve sold the 250DR, SC, 252 and the spare power lines, it’s less than a new Nova and I’ve still the SL for the 250 to move on.
