A few years back I had some proacs which is when my hunt and obsession with target stands came from. I’m pretty sure these would be ideal for proac!
I needed the 24s so had to import them from the US. They are very heavy !

Got this Metrum Baby Ambre network bridge yesterday. It’s connected to the router via Ethernet cable. It’s also Roon Ready (or Volumio) and outputs via coaxial or optical into the Arcam DAC. I’m not too bothered about fancy digital sources so this should do fine for occasional use like trying out new albums before vinyl purchase etc.

This looks like a no compromise turntable, awesome.

Spring covers gone walkies, or is that a 'tweak'?
Lovely and a proper turntable in the thread at last
Spring covers off as I was trying to get the bounce right and failed! Since that pic was taken a couple of weeks ago, I've replaced the suspension with Pete's Pylons which has tightened up the bass amongst other things, and no bounce to have to tune. Next upgrade is an Audiomods Series 6 on the way to replace the Tecnoarm

Been redoing this room at home and just reached a milestone of having the parquet restored and finished - speakers back in today
Will put rugs down and bring the sofas back in here on Saturday. Took the opportunity to hide all cables in the walls, so only speaker cables visible now, it’s a 5.1 system too so all nicely hidden away.
Skirting boards prep and fitting tomorrow - same wood and finish as the floor.

Thanks
An awful lot of work has gone into that floor. Lots of block replacement and relaying.. The fireplace is new, so the floor was relaid around it, went through the thresholds properly with matching blocks, and went into the reveals where windows were taken out and French doors put in the dining room/kitchen. A lot of time spent cleaning bitumen off blocks with parrafin too - I have no intention of doing it again!
Shame as I’m going to cover 70% of it in rugs and a 6.5m sofa. It’s sooo echoey in there it’s crazy!

Bitumen laid blocks are a b****r to clean! You’ve done a tremendous job. I’m looking forward to seeing the rugs down, if your ID name is anything to go by.Thanks

A 6.5m sofa? That’s 3 sofas!
