Here's my email, I'd like to swap hifi listens. Think it would be interesting on two comparable systems to hear the differences.

If you get to set this up i would be very interested to learn your thoughts on this. I have an Arcam set up and love it but am always interested in the comparative to Primare. I would be keen to know what differences you find given the posts you both make.

Do you know what, I was thinking about this the other day. It could be a mag article - "Readers' Systems Death Match" - we both go down to WHF Towers (seeing as it's just round the corner from me

) and listen to, and comment on, each other's systems in the same environment, and we have a referee who also gets a vote. I promise to be objective, and to bring the biscuits. Anyone?

I'm not all that keen on unplugging it all and lugging it down to Tedders really.

I was just interested in the differences rather than who's is best.

Yes, so am I, and we will arrange (I could come to you, probably easier) when I can get a free weekend or evening (which may not be for a few weeks, the way things are going). Will drop you a line (though you could probably guess my email address

)

Still say it's a good article in the making. I can see the headlines - "JD Likes Arcam System Shock. McVities Stocks Down."

I would join in JD, but fear that my system is rather me-specific and would have people running from the listening room screaming!

fatboyslimfast:I [...] fear that my system is rather me-specific

Aren't they all?

 

[fatboyslimfast]

You make a fine and valid point sir...

 

[John Duncan]

I actually think that most 'good' [insert definition here] stereos will sound 'good' to most people. It's my taste in music that's s--t..........

 

[fatboyslimfast]

Hmmm, yes. I'm always getting the "what the bl88dy hell are you listening to now" from the missus... but then again, I'm not keen on listening to her r&b "music" either so each to his (her) own

Don't everyone's missus say that!!!
