London, Ontario

Hi:

I live in Strathroy, Ontario. Always happy to talk about music and electronics and get together with others.

Kevin - Thanks for responding. I'm actually in the Masonville area in NW London so we're not far apart. You don't have a systems description but it sounds from your threads that you've taken quite a different approach with your equipment than I have, which would make for some interesting comparisons. Let's see if we can get a few more locals to join in and then get together.

I'm in the north end near the university. I have a friend in the south end who is also an audio nut.

JA Michell Orbe SE, Origin Live arm, Dynavector cartridge and EAR 324 phono;
Joule Electra pre and Berning ZH-270 amp;
Peak Consult Incognito X loudspeakers;
Stereovox cables.

I thought all the audiophiles in London had either died or sold their systems to buy plasma screens.

Hi all.

Glad to hear there is still a few of us left that have not fallen curse to the HT monster. Sure, i dig movies like the next guy, but I just can't get too excited about the Tallis Scholars through a Technics receiver. Not hi-fi-snobbery, just a passion for great music through a system that can actually make you " feel " the music, unfortunately, there seems to be a rather pricey admission fee for all of this, yet, it gives me back much more than I paid for it all.

happy listening....

Greg

Greetings, I see the last post on this thread is over a year old, I hope somone is still checking.
I am 53 and have been into audio as long as I can remember, probably early teens. I am from London, and now live about 45 minuts N/W of the city.
I have a dedicated 2 ch system which consists of;
Krell T-20 transport
Krell Reference 64 dac
Pass Labs X0.2 pre
two Threshold T-400 amps. (upgraded to stasis 8)
Duntec C-5000 (princess) speakers
PS Audio P1000 line conditioner
Interconnects are MIT mi350(balanced)
Speaker cable- MIT mh 770 non biwire
Power cords are MIT oracle ac 1 on source and pre JPS Labs on amps.
In the same stand is a 5.1 system which consists of;
Classe' dvd/cd 1
Classe' SSP-30 mkII pre/pro
Moon Aurora 5-ch. amp.
MIT z-center line conditioner
Speakers are Von Schweikert vr 2 on front vr 1 for rears and Von Schweikert center channel.
Speaker cables are MIT mh 750
interconnects are mit (rca)
I also have a small collection (six) of Nakamichi tape decks; cr3a cr7a zx9 dragon rx505 Lx5. I don't use these too much, except the cr3a somtimes, the others are just to be admired.
Primarily I like to listen to new age/instramentle and celtic music. My favourate artist is Loreena Mckennitt, she is world renowned, and is from Stratford Ontario,and I think she still lives there. If you are not familiar with her, check out her music and vids on you-tube.
I have a gallery on Canuck Audio Mart under the user name; dfrost. Some of the pics need to be updated as system has changed alot since they were posted.
Happy listening to all, best regards to all London audiophiles.
