Bonnies & Vinyl & Valves

Is it just gin and tonic that you've been having ?
From what century/decade are the Bonnie's ?

How about another mix ? Triumph x2, BMW x2, vinyl player, valve amp and pre-amp ! Is that sad ? No need to reply

 

Sorry I’m old, they aren’t Bonnies! Daytona 900 and TRW 500

You lost me from the first line. And I don't even have any gin. Enjoy the music but beware of the noises in your head.

Started off with a Leak stereo 20 quit loud enough for the average house

 

Own a Bonnie. Still buying vinyl (most recent some new and reissue Yo La Tengo, latest British Sea Power and half a dozen or so second hand albums). Use a Linn Sondek, through various bits of kit including a valve pre-amp (solid state power amps atm) in to speakers or decent headphones depending on time of day/evening and mood. I need to get a valve power amp and valve headphone amp sometime.

 

Passive pre amps are supposed to be good ????

 

Chaps I'm positive you have the wrong forum.

How are these adverts getting here ?

 

Great sound is timeless

 

Tell me what kit I can get to play wav audio on my amp, they are supposed to be better than vinyl ?

 

Depends where you have the files stored. There are various DACs you can hook up depending on what type of quality sound you're interested in. In the meantime why not save space and compress the WAVs to full fat FLAC.

fwiw, for portable music I store flacs on a FiiO 'mp3' player. With decent headphones the sound quality is way better than a phone or iPod.

 

It's all about the quality of the sound mate. Some folk like hi-fidelity, though admittedly as you get older the narrower the spectrum your lugs can discern.

 

I used to convert 405 line tv,s to 625 line. I’m not 100% up on interfacing I’ve got laptop and memory stick and that’s about all !!!

 

You need a digital analogue convertor aka DAC connected to your laptop. There are various options. Try googling 'laptop music DAC' . The sound card in your laptop can be a limiting factor. If there's a hifi shop in your area pop in and ask; they'll advise you and try to sell you something.

 

ok thanks I will when
I have a spare hour or two

 

I don’t have a Feckin clue what any of you are talking about
Turn it up to number 11
Job done

 

Very good but not all about volume !! This thread already out of hand, can you put them on bikes ??????
