Of course. Had to sell a few very expensive cables to pay for it, but hey….Ties the room together nicely I'll bet

A foretaste, forecast or foretell? Surely not a foreskin though they can occasionally get under one. Foreplay could be made to fit too.
Ho ho! Gershwin would turn in his blue rhapsodic grave. Seriously (look in a dictionary) 'fora' is the plural for Roman market places only, and you don't get a lot of them nowadays. There are lots of Latin words which one 'ums' and 'ahs' about, but this one, 'forums', was coined with the internet, I believe.

An argument of forums, surely?
I live in a typical sized three bed semi house. The kit is in the living room.
No not my Build Mike. I commisioned and worked on the design with the builder Paul Knipe (knipster on wam & Mav) who owns and runs Solid Sounds in Leeds (https://www.solid-sounds.co.uk/contact). As you can see his woodworking skills are superb, of the 6 angles on the plinth only the front lh corner is 90°.That has to be the most aesthetically different plinth I've seen; did you craft it, John? Looks as though it's been designed to take a 12" arm but not sure. Bit tricky to accommodate a cover ?

It would be much the same if I tried to make a plinth!
Yep, old plinth bottom left in 1st photo.
New plinth has a 120mm thick mdf sandwich core with black American walnut veneered top, and the sides are clad with 25mm thick, profiled black American walnut.
As to the angles, working clockwise from the 90° front left corner.
1. 90°
2. 152.2°
3. 113.5°
4. 97.1°
5. 152.9°
6. 110.7°

An ignorant argument of forums seems to do it.

Not the best photo. I do seem to prefer a single-source system, having been vinyl only for years. CD only currently, as the sideboard that used to have the turntable has been relocated to the kitchen. Stirling speakers, Primaluna amp, and Mojo2 all bought on here. Audiolab CDT6000 bought new from Richer Sounds.
How do they pair with the system, John?And the latest iteration of the system, with Heco Direkts inplace of the SF Toy Towers.
Are first impressions good?
Still getting dialled in but 1st impressions are good though not 100% convinced yet.

Absolutely sing with a nice EL84 amp.
They ain't sounding too shabby at the moment with the 88 equipped IA ST40, plus don't know anyone near Chichester with an 84 integrated to experiment with.
