My Amplifier has died a horrible death. Hard to believe I bought it in 1985!! It was a Mission Cyrus One and though other components have come and gone that little amp just chugged along - 39 years!! Now I just have a very lonely looking pair of Linns. its been a long time since I dipped my toe in the murky ocean of HiFi. I have a feeling life is going to be a bit expensive for a while. does anyone else listen to music on separates? My son has my old Technics kit - separates - that I bought second hand in 1996 and is his preferred kit. 2 Quote
Tiggie Posted January 11, 2024 Posted January 11, 2024 Oh how I longed for a technics system when I was a teenager!! I had a Pioneer stereo which I inherited from my brother. Was a serious upgrade on the Aiwa boombox I had before at least 1 Quote
husoi Posted January 11, 2024 Posted January 11, 2024 Long story short. 2011 Bought this amazing sound system. Nothing fancy, but with all the bits I like plus proper old fashion speakers (can't be bothered to take a pic of them). 2 years ago the screen stopped working. Called Pure to be told that model was discontinued and they would offer me 20% discount if I would by a more up to date model. Problem is, Pure only makes shaite models with plastic speakers instead of proper ones. Managed to get a screen from china, 30 min work opening the system and replace the screen. working as new. Magnificent sound btw. 1 Quote

Gerontious Posted January 11, 2024 Posted January 11, 2024 Not bad for an imaginary guitar solo. but ultimately, who gives a f**K anyway? one of many favourites from this man. sadly missed. even 30 years later. Quote
curlylegend Posted January 12, 2024 Posted January 12, 2024 In the drawing room I listen to music on a combination of old Rogers speakers married into a set of Jamo speakers with subwoofer all driven by a Sony A/V amp. Adequate but not really Hi Fi. But in the kitchen where I actually do most of my listening I have a new ( remarkably cheap ) valve amp driving a pair of home made DML flat panel speakers. Sound source is a basic Tablet to connect to Spotify and play music from the series Yellowstone. The DML speakers replaced a pair of very expensive Hi Fi ceiling speakers. Honestly, there's no comparison, the DML's are fantastic ! On the moto, I listen to a very old somewhat modified iPad through a pair of bluetooth headphone speakers which supposedly have a degree of noise cancellation, cant say I've noticed. Anyway sound level is usually such as to give me almost subliminal music. Suits me fine ! Quote
