Friday was a busy day and my back is only just recovering. My older LP12 now has the Origin Live larger motor and power supply together with a comprehensive resetup. The newer LP12 is now fully Funk Vectored complete with K Drive. Both, after setup by my friend, bounce in a much more regular and…

Funk LP12 Vector Link
All the kit of parts of my new Funk Vector Link arrived on Friday. Fit and finish look good. Reading through the installation instructions it appears that there is a good deal of work to do in fitting it. Not being a LP12 guru I have asked a friend who is to assist with the…

FIP Radio
Can’t take any credit for finding this station as it was a suggestion from Paul Messenger. FIP is a somewhat idiosyncratic radio station also available on the interweb.

Record Cleaning Shocker
Last night I visited a friend who was borrowing a Keith Monks Classic Record Cleaning Machine. I arrived to find a large pile of cleaned LPs and a man excitedly playing a track from a record, cleaning it and then playing it again. I know KM is a client and I’m therefore biased, but the…
Just sold my Epos ES30s
Sort of sad to see a pair of loudspeakers go that I have been listening to and enjoying for around 10 years. Strangely, looking back, it seems I change speakers around every decade. The Epos’ have a wonderful way of communicating music but having recently had the Neat MF7s here for a month or so…
