Type goople into google and see what happens...


Well I never! My fingers moved over the keyboard, the appropriate keys
were depressed in the specified order and the phrase;

'goople into google'

appeared on the screen.

Where did you learn how to do that?

I didn't learn it, I just typed something off the top of my head and
sure enough as this is usenet someone will try it.
I haven't tried it myself, if the result was to be mindblowing then
a thread would evolve, and then I'd try it...

The link you supplied, is it to one of Arny's uploaded recording examples?

Hey Ken, nice speakers, are they yours, do you live at No 15?
Or is that a hobby of yours - taking snaps of neighbours front
doors?


OK, after years of baiting JA in rao, Arny then claimed "professional"
status for his years of recording "experience", when challenged it
transpired that Arny had never allowed anyone to hear any of his
recordings. When cajoled and harassed, Arny implied he'd prepare
and upload an example. This was several months ago since when
most have abandoned rao, I'm just curious as to if Arny did upload
an example and if anyone has a link to it?

Yep, are you popping round for tea?

Speakers? wot speakers? I'd forgotten that pic was there, I was trying
to identify the flowering plant, it turned out to be a clivia miniata;
you will no doubt be fascinated to learn

The flower pic has now been replaced with a speaker pic as requested

Good heavens no! I'm far too busy knitting a polo neck jumper for
Geoffrey.

Oh dear, ahem, well err........
I wish you hadn't changed the pic of your front porch with potted
plants on speaker stands with this image...

Apart from throwing the whole thread off kilter it seems you have
sourced your audio hardware from Dixons circa 2001, and Argos?
But eccentrically and entertainingly you appear to have your budget
system perched upon a shelving unit sourced from a Homebase or
B&Q garden centre?

Geoffrey.


How very disappointing.

I think it's safe to assume that Arny never did upload an example
of his amateur recordings....

Ah, got you now. I wondered where the speaker reference came from. Not
speaker stands; but the remains of a scrofulous set of discarded side
tables. And not a porch but the landing outside my bijou penthouse
apartment here in sheltered housing land.

it seems you have
sourced your audio hardware from Dixons circa 2001, and Argos?


You're 10 years out on most of it, JVC amp 1979, Denon receiver and B&W
DM620's circa 1992. Denon tuner 1988 but apparently favourably reviewed
in Stereophile. http://goo.gl/mEa8

Not visible was the Pioneer PL-112D turntable from August 1976; (you
can date it from the serial numbers).

All from fleabay and local small ads. And indeed Argos and Home
Bargains http://www.tjmorris.co.uk/ are my favoured audiophile
accessory suppliers.

Apologies for derailing the thread.
