多謝美言，不是甚麽王道，只可說逃亡敗軍找到一utopia吧了。

我講及我的車房為music den, 其實現實只係一個junk corner，太太成曰叫我唔好再去 car boots sale搵d垃圾番來。

唔多理佢，繼續enjoy！

春卷兄，

那有cling film 的Altec DIY音箱因那Altec 604c單元去了repair, 不知何時回家，原本是緊帖brick wall 的，故為了防止受潮濕故用了Clung film保護住。

多謝盧兄也有間中跟住我哋垃圾video, unique是台舉了，實則我音樂範疇是很廣的，只要是音樂我便會收取，當然有些是我會較取向多一點，人總會有偏心的。

先來一些普衆懷舊吧。

在英國玩Hi-Fi可以話係幾似lone ranger, 如你有同路那是bonus.

首先英國人並沒有太多所謂Hi-End Audiophiles, 以前多些，現在年輕人手機一部做曬所有野，若然有一套2-Chanel Stereo. System已經難得了，且大多數不是甚麼貴價野，如和香港比，本土人真係可以用未見過大蛇屙尿來形容；當我話比同事聽我在港家人用了£25000去換Interconnect ，佢哋話What! Is he mad?

但係香港確是unique 的。

我就冇呢啲本事啦，我車房好多野都係我自己DIY算啦，好似呢對Tannoy Monitor Gold 10”擴大音箱咪又自己做。

在英國如你是黑膠迷，你就開心啦，charity shops, car boots sale及二手唱片舖仍然有很多。

如呢隻係Oxfam搵到。

春卷兄先前提及有專業人士介紹Rega P8盤。當年住Colchester時through 個dealer 去咗探Roy Gandy。當年Rega 似是山寨規務，靠自己品牌及OEM 盤唯生。

但我探班時Roy demo佢嘅新產品，Rega Apollo top loading CD player. 唔係嗎？這是我當時想法。

但我聽完demo後，感覺是Naim CD3 quality ，但只係4分一價錢，即訂了一部。

這是history now.

My point is不一定貴嘅比到你需要的。我最近去咗local hi fi shop 去睇FAYNE Audio新嘅坐地，店內有Linn LP12, Windows 有部平£8000，內面有£25000, 我在未失聰前有過5部LP12, 但最後只留下這部Ariston RD80 及 RD11s，因基本上和LP12差不多設計，不相伯仲，當然Linn EKOS臂肯定好過Rega , 但也不是太多那隻。

先來RD80配FR54. Sandy Denny係我至愛，英年早逝，可惜。

w.lo.bc,

I couldn’t have agreed more with what you said. Buying old stuff from the car boots is kind of trying to preserve some history for me. I always appreciate some sellers when they put more effort in rejuvenating some old tools. They don’t necessary sell it but showing to people what you can do with some TLC and it will bring back some glory and value of that tool.

Nowadays it’s throw-away culture and everything and anything should be thrown out when ceased functioning. So often we forget it doesn’t have to be this way. We recycle a lot of stuff because we are told to like paper, milk bottle and soft cans. There are also a lot of stuff worth recycling too.

I am not sure if we are sharing the same last name, Lo, but certainly we share the idea about keeping old relics.

When you said you are from the other side of the pond, USA or Canada? If you are from the former then I am going to play you some old American stuff, Carver, Acoustic Research and most of all R.E.M. Been a friend of them since the 80’s and we saw them many times as well.

先前用了Ariston RD80 SL來播放Sandy Denny.

Sandy 係我所推崇”Three Angels” 其中一個。Joan Baez 及 Joni Michelle 是其餘兩位。

她們可勝任為若然甚麼能代表true humanity, 莫過於此三人。

接著是Joan cover 英國民歌手Donovan對Joan 於60年所寫的一首示愛情歌。

今次用Toshiba 平價DD盤，這盤特點是有別其他重量級DD盤要配重臂，這部Toshiba SR-370若配越輕唱臂及頭更能有更好表現。

ST-370 + ADC Low Mass LM2 carbon arm+ Benz Micro MC Gold ( set on 1.5g).
