What are you listening to right now? (VOL I)

Posted by: Tam on 06 June 2005

Anyway, to kick things off, I'm currently, and probably for most of the rest of this week, listening to Radio 3's Beethoven Experience. They're doing one of the piano concertos at the moment and (number 2 with Glenn Gould). Anyway, the experience thing probably needs its own thread, but, even on this cheapo radio it's proving fairly enjoyable.

So, what are you listening to right now?

Oh dear,

Your house must look impeccable!

I only decided to clean the room since I had to change over speaker cables. Otherwise I would have left it alone. Roll Eyes

Well Kuma,

If it was your good self who recently posted a photo of a rack with a selection of cables, the change over may take some time! Big Grin

Joe Sample: Voices in the rain

Peter,

I don't subject a little Nait 3R with goober speaker cables. Smile

All I did was to install a NACA5 with cardas spades soldered on to the speaker ends ( since the WATT 6 does not take bananas ) instead of using adaptors. Also, on the amp ends, plastic casings were removed and have longer *leads* so that they go straight into the speaker terminals and drape nicely without touching the Mana glass shelf or rear wall.

What a difference~! Red Face

First time listen on loan from a collegue, so far ok but mildly repetitive, which is no surprise give what I've heard from Glass before.

Missing the visual spectacle methinks.

After a busy day out in the sunshine, getting a burnt head it's nice to sit down and listen to some tunes Smile
