I'm a long time audiophile, so I have considerable experience tweaking tweeters, if you'd like a free consult.



Back in the day I too was an audiophile. There's a 20 minute documentary video on the Audiophile club of Athens by Savage Bean. I'm the English guy.

I have to admit I've rather lost interest in the whole thing these days. I realized that my fellow audiophiles didn't really have much interest in the music - it was all about the systems for them. I was the opposite.

That meant they would be talking about the latest NOS EL34's they'd picked up and were running in triode mode and I'd be talking about the best performance I had found of the Rach 3 piano concerto (Askenazy / Previn/ LSO on London Records - as it happens).

Owlix,

All over the dinosaurs - have been since I was a child. The thing that amazed me was, after spending an entire childhood learning everything I could about dinosaurs when I came back to it, years later, it had all changed entirely. Some of the dinosaurs I had learned about didn't even exist whilst there were whole new groups that had been discovered that I knew nothing about.

Still watch and read anything I can on dinosaurs.

Saw this one last night, as it happens:
