Well....that's a turn up for the (hi-fi) books

Some of you will remember about 5-6 years ago I got chatting to this pensioner in the pub. It transpired he loved his music. He said he had a good system and invited me for a listen.

When I told him what I have he said bring my amp round, which I did and gave him a very different flavour.

Yesterday, while shopping in the village, we bumped into each other. First time I've seen him since Covid.

Anyhoo he's possibly looking at upgrading his amp, and he wants me to take my amp around for another listen. He'll text me later this week.

Should be interesting.

Probably not the same man that was killing Q Acoustics with a Denon amp - but what happened about that?

No. He seemed a bit of an idiot.

This pensioner is very different. He's got:

Yamaha AS 500
Matching CDP
One of the newer budget Thorens turntable
Kef R300 speakers

The KEF R300 really saves the day in this system. Buying matching amp and CD player was very smart too. He must have come across a very knowledgable dealer.
