I simply love my audio gear. It really is just a mix of Vintage stuff … and more Vintage stuff!
Let me show you some pictures.

My Pride Of Ownership Prize goes to my wonderful Jean Marie Reynaud Opera loudspeakers (build around 1984).
Though very recently I bought myself 4 Magnepans (the 1986 SMGa).
I strongly believe (my ears do too) in a 4.1 setup, with 4 equal speakers for fronts and rears.

You’ve probably noticed the turntable! The famous and fabulous Technics SL-1210MK2. I bought this piece last year. New, that is … but talking about Vintage: this beautiful machine is produced, unchanged, for over 30 years now. Still for sale … and still sadly enough ignored by many audiophiles for being a supposed DJ thingy. Well, pamper this record machine with a proper cartridge (like Denon’s DL-160) and off you go!
