And I told her "no wonder it went mouldy if you left jam on it...".And some stuff called madeira... cheers 2sheds Madeira is so retro as to be way cool... Henriques & Henriques 10 YO Sercial is my fav. I have always liked the look of the Rotel Michi range, as far as big power amps go. Classy. I lusted after a pre /power combo in my youth, and was lucky enough to hear those amps on a few occasions. But triple my budget at the time.

TT, When those Lotto numbers come up, I will plump for the dps 3 and, of course, the Schroeder Reference. Apart from the looks of the dps, which I like much better, I like the design philosophy and detail in the dps. And the platter and bearing of the dps was based on design input from Schroeder. Combine that with the excellent isolation and 3 phase power, not to mention stunning elegance, of the derplattenspeiler and I reckon this one is a winner. cheers 2sheds

Sold them off when I briefly flirted with valve gear...........now have regrets as they are virtually impossible to obtain on the second-hand market.

everyones_shadow Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Firstly a request... There is a beautiful Denon (or was it Trio?) TT form the late 70s with a LT tonearm -- could someone post a pic. All rosewood and champagne Sexy without being beautiful.

False advertising, Aslan! If Andrew could curve the edges of the R1s no-one would notice Maddy +1 on Rotel Michis (when seen up close). Beautiful metalwork. Sounded great too. ES

U should have bought it. spot on and I should've but it was very heavy and would have been too tricky to pack and bring back to Aust. But I got my hand on this Valve amp instead and it still remains a champion in my book. Ah well....

everyones_shadow Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 The 'pyramid' in the background is an Edge poweramp and the speakers are the gorgeous Sonus Faber Extremas. Much sexier IMHO than the modern SFs.

Resonance-2-Rythm Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 The stand mount model (mini II) is selling for $40,000. So I can only dream for now....but maybe one day.. .....zzzzzzZZZZZ.
