I've long run out of space for LPs and CDs...
Yes, I have run out of room for CDs too; I have a bit more room left for vinyl that might see me through 2014.
On the equipment front, I want to do more work on the Lenco 88; it is currently mounted on a slate plinth, but the sound balance isnt to my taste at the moment, so Im thinking of trying a 30mm birch ply mounted on top of the slate in a two-tier arrangement. I deliberately chose the non-damped route, but it does look as if some damping would be appropriate.
I bought a pair of Kustone-damped MKII Kans with a view to converting them to active operation. I have a NAXO and PSU on standby and a pair of NAPA 250 boards waiting to be fitted into a full-width Naim case that Ive had sitting around for ages. Im thinking of a dual-mono ZAP 250 configuration that will power the bass units, with my existing NAP 250 running the tweeters.
I also have to either repair/service my Nakamichi 600 or find a replacement at some point.
My system is in a bit of a limbo; the LP12/Norton/Aro/XX2MKII/pre-fix is boxed up at the moment. I need to find space for all of my turntables, which will probably mean putting up a wall shelf (or two). The plan is to fit the series 5 phono cards to the NAC102 and then convert my Avondale Stage one to be switchable for two decks. The Stanton ST.150 and the LP12/Aro both have their own built in phono stages, so Ill be able to have everything connected to the pre-amp at once.
I also have two sets of NJ phono boards to populate too; Im not sure when Im going to be able to find the time for all of this TBH!
