Fabulous. I can't believe that all frequencies are covered by compression drivers.!! I use compression drivers in one of my systems but they only play down to 800hz. Those diaphrams must be HauGE!!

Cheers for the link.

That is amazing. Love all the cables too. That turntable looks beautiful also. I'd certainly like some of those record boxes, likely all that wouldn't cost a king's ransom in the room!

Be Yamamura was a customer of mine in the late 70's when he owned a 912 and was just getting into bespoke hifi.

This is a stereo amp that he built for me in the 80's using a 911SC cylinder as a heatsink!

That's sooooo cool

[Ant22]

Ha! Awesome!!!!

[Roddavies]

Cool!!!! Although it does look a bit like a box of ashes of a late Porsche...

Any chance of a pic of the back and internals??

[butzsi]

I no longer have it so I'll see what I can do. I gave it to Chris Branston (my solicitor and ex PCGB Chairman) who used it for a while until it stopped working and then he sent it to another friend of Be's and mine, Brian Colin, to repair. As far as I know Brian still has it so I will try to contact him for more photos.

This all took place a very long time ago so may take a while to progress..........

I'm my no means an audiophile, I wanted some nice compact speakers while I was living on my boat so made these little 5" folded transmission lines. Liked them so much i'm still using them with a little digital amp and cheap valve pre amp thingy from ebay. Very happy with the sound for the size of the kit.

Decided to try a new turntable. Love the look of the Gyro Dec I've been using since 1999 but fancied a change as think there could be better sound. Looking at Linn LP12 options, there are so many it's daunting. But also kept reading that they can be hard to keep 'tuned' so looked at other options. Found that Pink Triangle Anniversary decks were well regarded & (I think) look super. So collecting one tomorrow! Will let you all know. But do shout if you've had any experience. If negative asap!!

My LP12 seems to go on forever without any tuning needed.
