No fair!!

You just got a CDS555 as well no? Hope you enjoy your new toy. To say I'm jealous would be an understatement!

Just picked up my very own CD555 from Peter. The first person to own one

. Only fair as I was the first to order one.

Hows my TMS sounding?

well I will tell you when all the wires turn up, the dealer forgot to put the power cable in the box. So I can't use it yet

Then I am off on a few days break in an hour or so, it will be middle of next week before I can hear it,

never mind!

Hi PB,

The Roksan is looking very sexy

Congratulations. Along with the 555, you have one hell of a system! I admire the way you've gone for what you consider to be the best and arenot worried about the cost - or maybe you are...

I'd love to hear it sometime.

Marco.

 

[Polarbear]

Hi Marco,

you only live once, thats my moto and I enjoy my music so why not treat yourself to what you want,

regards

PB

 

[Marco]

I couldn't agree more, PB!

I've always liked the Roksan, it's an awesome deck.

Enjoy

Marco.

I used ti have a rack like that nigel, the soundations one, if Marco reckons Mana's tough to set up, he ought to try one of these, total PITA, looks nice though.

 

[Marco]

I've never tried one of those racks, are they any good? Oh, and Nigel, why isn't your Roksan on Fraim? Tut, tut...

Paul, Mana isn't particularly difficult to set up; it's just a matter of understanding the design, and then everything else is common sense. If you can use a spanner, you can set up Mana

Marco.

could detect no difference either way Marco, a spanner is all thats needed for the soundations F1, but it's a footery bastard, and each leg, (20 in a 5 shelf rack) has 2 nuts, each nut has to be screwed down the thread, takes about 2 hours to setup from flat pack, then another hour to level it all.
