    What a lovely little system, with some great bits of vintage-ish kit.

    Particularly like the Michi pre-amp....

    What is the box on the floor with the meter on the front? Mains transformer and/or conditioner?

    Some nice gear you've got there.

    I'm not too sure? I think it's a power conditioner.

    In last words my hifi is not sophisticated and detailed. But it gives me a nice balanced sound. I still need to get more used to the Mission 751s. As they are a bit small/light sounding, and can be a bit sharp. But they do have nice midrange and vocals.

    My future plans is to get my Rega RB250 heavily upgraded. And also maybe get Pink Triangle upgraded to the ''LPT VX''

    Cheers.

    Arthur K has some plans for the RB250 himself and the early results are apparently good.

    Hope you stick with this setup for a good while Shane

    I've always thought the Michi range a lovely set of kit. It all looks great Shane - what is it with us sad blokes that get their kicks from looking at photos of other blokes kit? Still, could be worse!

    Hi Shane

    Welcome to the madhouse.

    Does the dustcover come off the deck, and have you tried it ?
    Every suspended deck I've had sounds better without the lid - if you haven't tried it you should.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    Yes, the dust cover comes off and have done it a few times lol.

    The Pink Triangle LPT is not a suspended deck.
