[QUOTE="Family_Dog, post: 34810, member: 82"] Guess I can't be referred to as an audio snob... I listen to music either on my ancient home-made Mullard 5-20 valve amplifiers, or an old repaired Pioner SX-737 receiver driving Wharfedale Super 12 speakers, or a couple of old 1968 vintage Sansui AU-111 valve amplifiers driving Tannoy Gold 15" speakers, or any of a few old Technics receivers driving mainly old B&O speakers. Even my FM tuners are ancient, one old Trio 105 valve Mono FM tuner or a couple of old Sansui TU-555/666/777 tuners. Heck, even an old Leak Stereo 30 driven by a Leak Troughline II tuner and lastly an old Richard Allan A-51 transistorised amplifier driven by an equally old Rotel s/s pre-amp, also powering Wharfedale Super 12s.. Now, ain't that scary stuff? Nahhh, I just like my vintage audio, great stuff! :) -F_D [/QUOTE]
