You won't have even heard of most of it let alone heard it.
I did own a CDX2 though once.

The youth of today, where did we go wrong? Glad to see they are back on the straight and narrow. ;-)Some twenty year old recently reformed Audio Note AN-E Sp's

I bet you can’t wheelie a unicycle!
Chord chorus interconnect, from a member of this forum, its in the post now... before that and quite recently, a Linn Pekin tuner for £75, not bad considering what they usually sell for (around £200). It's not as good as my Kremlin but still sounds very decent hooked up to my bedroom system.

That's quite a list!
I keep saying I won't be buying anymore for at least until something dies... and then I spot a beer money bargain for a second system or just something to play with and buy it.

A pair of Revolver RW16 speakers off the bay a couple of months ago
A pair of Epos M12i speakers for £155 in very good condition. I aleady have a pair of M5i which I got from Ebay 2 years ago, I really wanted the M12i but at the time only the M5i came up at a price I was prepared to pay ( £122 ). I now want to compare the 2 as they have completely philosphies - The M5i a complicated crossover v M12i a simple crossover with just a cap and a resistor. At the moment they seem very comparable with maybe the M12i with a bit more of sting/hardness ( but not from the tweeter I think but the bass/mid range unit )

I recently perchased a Luxman C-12 pre amp, to go with my JVC M-L10. Was a bit weary as there's a known issue with some of the now discontinued IC's, but I found a source for replacements if need be. Only thing replaced, so far, is the 'on' bulb. I think it sounds a bit better than my Nakamich CA-5, and I really like the subtlety of the 'linear equaliser' .

OK, gonna wing it a bit on this.
The last bit of kit I got was an early Audiolab 8000a from outside a house that was being junked. I knocked on the door and asked if I could take it, "oh yes" She said, "would you like a carrier bag to put it in?"
Got it home, gave it a wipe over. Had a check inside for anything amiss. Plugged it in, listened for speaker relay click, all good.
Connected it all up, worked perfectly, even the pots are totally silent.
Total Winner !!

Just press play
Having recently arrived in London I've had to leave my main stereo setup behind for the time being. In anticipation of living in a small apartment until my family joins me I bought a Joty, HD800's, LCD3's and most recently a Chord Mojo. Ironically I'm sharing an apartment with a colleague so the cans haven't come out to play, instead the mojo is running line out into a Little Italy integrated valve amp driving Odeon Fidelio's.

Bought a pair of Tannoy Ellipse 8 3-way active monitors last week - 8" DC in a big grey egg with a supertweeter perched on top .
Absolutely fantastic things! I'd had one previous attempt at active monitors with some ESI Unik 08's which I kinda liked, but not enough to live with for very long. These Tannoys are a league or 3 above (though I admit I've always been a big DC fan)! The mid/low/hi trim pots have been great to tailor them to my room too.
Just fab and worth every penny
