Shanling CD-T300 Omega Drive CD Player

Yamaha AV amp Pioneer Media box & DVD player.


Quad ESL 63 speakers used for both hi-fi and AV front L&R speakers using the pre out of the Yamaha amp via a switch on the input to the Quad 606.


Pioneer 436XDE 43 inch plasma


Cheap subs from Richer sounds, there is one at each end of the settee.

I think the system sounds good, future upgrades will include a better arm and a good phono pre amp. But that will be sometime in the future.

Gimme Gimme Gimme!!!

Go on!... You don't need it. Really you don't, honest!!!

Oooooh....nice, especially the turntable.

Good to see the wee JPW MM's doing service - I got a pair of these off eBay recently for just over a tenner. Fabulous little things...music music music. Not a huge amount else but for that much who cares??

Thanks for the comments about the turntable, we've only had it a couple of months. We are very pleased with it.. We upgraded from a Rega Planer 3 which we got when they came out in 1977 I think. It had the "S" shaped silver arm them.

The JPW spekers are Sonata's I think. I have a pair of the Mini Monitors I use them with my PC.





Sonata's



Mini Monitors. They are on the Sonata stands.

The rest of my computer system, which is in a loft conversion consists of:



Sugden A48 amp, Goldring GL75 with the old Rega arm and cartridge.



Tangent RS4 speakers and or the Mini monitors. With a switchable TEAC sub.

The amp is connected to the PC so I can playback and record to and from the PC.

Baron,

You and your wife have a series of pretty impressive systems.

Hi all
I've just fitted a new arm to the Dias, here the pictures.

The best HI FI geek tool around.

Hi Baron

I don't know how I missed your set up....very nice. Love the Omega drive, I once had the loan of one for a month....very nice indeed. One thing worth playing with is a platform or say RDC platform for underneath it. I found it to be fussy about what it sat on the best option that doesn't mess up the look would be a set of RDC cups, into which the cones under the player can sit into. You should have a play with some isolation...I know you will be surprised by what you hear.

Mains leads too make a difference with this Shanling as well.

Thanks for the comments Neil, funnily enough I was going to look into isolation, I'll start with a set of the RDC cups I think. I've got my own filtered mains lead/block fitted which seams to work ok.

Hi Baron

The Dais is a fantastic TT I have owned one a couple of years ago, had it fitted with 2 arm boards. One with the NA Ace Space the other a Graham Phantom. If you really want to hear how truely great the Dais can sound I'd give one a serious try.

I have the Feickert alignment guage too, great bit of kit. Love it.
