    Point me in the right direction

    I’m using my Tucana mk1 with a pair of the original ATC SCM40s. If you could find some s/h that might work for you

    Are we letting the recording companies off to lightly?

    It was worth reading this thread for the Anne Bisson tip (although how you can put her and Adele in the same paragraph I don't understand). Interesting that you can also buy her music on 15ips reel to reel tapes *shok* as well as USB

    Control Apps and Firmware Upgrades.

    Thoughts on moving to a hifi from Sonos?

    Why not just a Connect:Amp and a set of speakers? Keeps the box count down and it's a good amp if you're not looking to connect other items, e.g. CD player

    Play turntable through sonos

    Will be really tedious though if the record finishes when you're in another room. Not sure the idea will catch on :)
