@Gyp very kindly contacted me with a pair of Celestion Ditton 44's in excellent condition. I couldn't resist. Custom made stands off Etsy arrived today. Sounding and looking lovely. I'll be getting them re-capped in the future, but for now just enjoying them.

Thanks Ian.

My current view.

The noise making boxes. 2xLK85 vertically bi-amping the Kefs and a Pi based streamer, Allo Digione Signature HAT and dual linear PSUs, in an old Linn Intersekt case. Oh and a Chord Mojo standing in for DAC/Preamp duties.

Do you mind me asking what's in the safe?

Bought some acoustic panels from this excellent Kyiv based seller. Arrived fairly quickly considering… As for the panels, they’re well made and they’ve nicely improved the sound - the midrange is smoother without any loss of detail and yet more open. Exactly what I wanted!
Warhamer 40k fan, Jezzer?

I think the aesthetic and ‘Dune on steroids’ vibe is incredibly cool. I used to paint 40k miniatures (and was quite good at it) many years ago.

The Astartes animation is stunning! Especially as it’s the work of just one incredibly talented individual…

I used to paint Citadel Miniatures as a teenager :). More fantasy than 40k though, other than the mini versions for the Space Marine game.

I remember Citadel! I knew some people who were into it but I was always more sci-fi leaning - So it was 40k, Judge Dredd and Mechwarrior!

Warhammer 40k figures were a type of Citadel Miniatures I thought?

I was right :). See e.g. the 40k figures on the front of this catalogue.

I'll stop being wildly off topic now :).

I used to paint Waterloo figurines for a War games class at school :)
I enjoyed it at the time but think I gave it up when I got a girlfriend.
Funnily enough I found out recently that Henry Cavill who is the latest actor to play Superman is a big Warhammer fan. I think that his girlfriend(a) overlook the Warhammer activities. Everyone else should make the choice girlfriend or Warhammer 🤣🤣🤣

Excellent behaviour. I’ve been into it forever, although aia’ve not painted or played for years.

@MartinC You’re correct, Citadel miniatures is what they were all under, 40k, standard warhammer etc were all citadel products. All the paints and hardware were citadel also. Games workshop must have consumed Citadel, i’m not sure. By the time I was into it it was all Games Workshop.

To keep it on topic, my listening chair from a while ago, it changes all the time.

😍

Henry Cavill is going to produce and star in a Warhammer 40k series.

Many years ago (when I was 16) I managed to entice a lass into my bedroom (it was strangely super easy and I couldn’t believe my luck) whereupon I ‘showed her my miniatures’. Let’s just say things downhill from there and she chose to avoid me forever after (oh Clare where are you now?)
