I think the cartridge would cost that in Oz. 

Hit summer’s night.

Reminds me of Duc's system.

 

Great link/feature - i think i must have tinkered in this room once at some point in my life!

I have to post this, GM100 tube 160W SE. The only problem with these big, hot transmitter tubes is high harmonic distortion even at a few watts. Same with 211s and 845s.Still awfully impressive.

Sunny but very windy. Typical for us 300 feet above sea level.

Always enjoyed Metaxas as a designer - even if I never listened to his stuff after a demo I hear in the early 80's (or was it late 70's). These are based on the Emperor...

And this is the official advert for the Prins speakers from Mark's post...

Cool as. 

Took screenshots from the youtube of a Korean lp collector and he has collected approximately 60000 lps.

 

The place, Concino Concrete Concert Hall,  just outskirt of Seoul shown on youtube (unfortunately no English subtitle), was built by a dentist for the love of music and can listen freely without worrying about the neighbours. He works in Seoul city as a dentist during weekdays and comes to this place on the weekend and work as a DJ.

I, myself, will try to visit the place when I am in Seoul for Autumn foliage in November this year.

I will put a Google maps link below if anyone wish to visit if you happen to visit Seoul.

I think its going to get hot. 

In early Jan, I posted photos of the second hand high end shop in Seoul, and found a video of the place from the youtube. Amazing thing is that, they leave the gears and the vinyl outside of the shops with overnight and yet no one is trying to steal them!

Hot. 

 

Some fab photos / systems there but does this one weird in many ways? Maybe just my eyes, or they have found a way to levitate speakers off the floor , - and not get roasted by an open fire,- and act as a fire guard (for some reason).
