Hi everyone and greetings from sunny England (… a rare occurrence from this part of the world )
Just starting to get the hang of navigating my way around AC - wow, this is a great forum and there is so much to go at,
I guess the main reason that I joined was as a result of a recent acquisition - a pair of Hyperion speakers and wanting to find out more about them - eg/ what have been or are peoples experiences with matching amplification - valve (what type) or s/s etc
Been into this crazy hobby for around 40 years and it still feels as fresh as it did when I first started. I suspect that like many of you, this has all broadened my musical tastes - which just seem to get broader each year - I guess that is what quality audio reproduction does for a lot of us?
I’m also really interested to hear how peoples practical circumstances (room sizes, budgets, priorities etc ) have affected the directions which they have subsequently taken - certainly insofar as equipment choices have been concerned. For example, what single piece of equipment would you never part with ever and why - is it for logical, sentimental, or practical reasons … or maybe it’s a bit of everything ? …
