Howdy all, Some of you may recall a thread I started showcasing some HT related products that my company makes, linky: http://www.dtvforum.info/index.php?showtop...&hl=Modular Well, due to a new addition (SGR MT3 Centre) I have the option to reconfigure the original modular unit or sell it and design something new! Piccy: http://www.dtvforum.info/index.php?act=att...ost&id=9853 So I thought I'd let fate decide which way to go, by offering the existing unit as an expression of interest That way if it sells I'll design something new, and if it doesn't sell I'll make the additional pieces (as it's designed to be modded to allow for new kit ) needed for it to house the new SGR Centre. So the sales pitch goes like this: *Original design *Hand crafted *Precise mitre joins *Hand polished Sydney Blue Gum *Design allows for easy dismantling and adding on as HT grows *12 separate boxes for housing HT kit, plus base and top totals 14 pieces *RRP is $495 (Including GST) per piece, but a very healthy discount will apply as this is my demonstration unit Basically, if this is something that interests you, feel free to PM a price you'd be happy to pay and I'll be in touch Cheers, Curious

Anything's possible JDH, that's why I started this company - so we could provide bespoke solutions to a variety of budgets - all I need to know is what a client wants and the budget to work with :-) Cheers, Curious

Thanks R&R, We have a retailer that we supply high-end tables to, he stocks chairs in volume, so it was simpler to have him match a set to the table :-) Cheers, Curious

Howdy all, Thought I'd provide an update in the form of some shots of a dining table we created out of Blackbutt for a client recently. Harry from SGR was kind enough to shoot it insitu while they were installing some of their lovely audio gear in the client's living room. Here's a few of Harry's excellent photographs: [ATTACH=CONFIG]33556[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]33557[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]33558[/ATTACH] The table was much loved by all, so more pieces will be created soon (including a lowline entertainment unit) - stand by for more pics to come Cheers, Curious

Thanks to those who have enquired, PMs in your inboxes :-) Cheers, Curious

Post-Easter bump :-)

Nice suggestions, with the OOP stuff, where do you normally look for them 2nd hand?

Excellent idea Craig, I'll start marking off the ones I want to find a better recording of then start the search! Latest list of listening pleasure: Billy Joel - The Stranger Boz Scaggs - Hits Tribal chillout - Various Powderfinger - Odyssey number Five, Golden Rule and Fingerprints Radiohead - The bends and OK Computer Queen - The Platinum Collection Sex cells - various Eagles - Hotel California and The Long Run Resevoir dogs - Motion picture soundtrack Ravel - Bolero and various Manfred Mann's Earth Band - The roaring silence Madeleine Peyroux - Half the perfect world Norah Jones - Fells like home Pete Murray - see the sun Oasis - What's the story morning glory The Pretenders - Greatest hits The Rat Pack - Various hits George Benson and Earl Klugh Paul Kelly - Songs from the south Dianna Krall - Live in Paris, Only trust your heart, All for you and Love scenes Fleetwood Mac - The Very Best of Doobie brothers - The Very Best of John Lee Hooker - Chill Out (Love this album - John's resonance in his lower registers sound exquisite on the MT3Fs) Michael Buble - Crazy Love Disque de demonstration - Focal No 6 Rorigo Y Gabriela - Re Foc Some will be listened too more often now while others probably less - such is the bittersweet result of having a more revealing system...you hear more from the well engineered CDs while others show up their shortcomings far more readily :ninja: Cheers, Curious

Oh I see, one is as bad as the other eh! Come think of it, I have the collection on vinyl - oughta sound better with greater dynamic range...looks like I'll be setting up the TT again :-) Cheers, Curious

You are spot on Craig, it's Fingerprints - fairly subtle difference ;-) Regarding the compression issue, I'll do some more listening and post back. Ok had a listen to both tracks on Fingerprints and Odyssey Number Five: With regard to 'My Happiness' i'm buggered if I can pick up any difference between the two... just when I thought maybe I could hear the cymbals a little better or a background harmony slightly more, I checked it on the other recording and couldn't tell the difference - what am I missing here? 'These Days' can't really be compared because the version on Fingerprints is the movie version (which ironically I preferred due to what sounded like a better separation of instruments) so I can't call it a dud either... Feel free to weigh in with opinions folks, maybe my ears just aren't up to it anymore - but is anyone else hearing something different between the 2 recordings? Just a thought Craig, are you listening to Odyssey Number Five or another recording maybe? Would love to hear an improved version of 'My Happiness' if it exists :-) Cheers, Curious

Another bump for luck :-)
