Oh, Mr. Beology,

If you are really into the super-talented, I recommend to you Florence + The Machine. This is something I've exhausted here on the forums but it has to be said again. She is one of those greats, one that can do an equally amazing job live.

🤒

Thanks for the recommendation Evan!

I just got the first album by Budgie recorded in 1971.

Just love it despite not knowing all the songs.

Currently playing it on the BG6500.

Relics  --  Pink FFloyd circa 1971 on bg3500 to bs4 and bl4000

hey ho mispent youth!

salut et bon dimanche

Beatles Number 1's compliation on System 3300 & CX100's - really nice combination. The CX's compliment the Bm3300 really well, & the CD3300 is reading this CD-R with no problems at all.

Astounding the journey this album takes you on - from the ridiculous Yellow Submarine to the sublime ... well... any of the other 28 tracks.

Chris.

I like the 3300 system, really one of the better of the flats as far as sound goes. I even got used to its "odd" looks after awhile. I will most likely keep mine as part of my collection.

But today I am listening to CD's on my rebuilt 5000 system. This set was dolled up with audiograde grade cap sets. I like the results.

Eugene my dear girl, which audiograde caps do you use and where do you get them, I see a S45 two way in the pic, Q. the lower fret is upside down or ?, like this you can see the top of the driver, if turned around you can hardly see the BO 45 script, so to start a long discution, what is the right way ? I also see a mac mini, how do you like that one, its easy to hide and it has in the right size good critics, I use myself an E-maschines small form factor but it is too big to hide.

I'm not a Beatles fan but they did make some good music.

As far as the "frets" go on the Revised Uniphase sets the only way of placement that matters is the one that I like the best. Does it really matter if it is right side up or down ? Yes I prefer the lettering to clearly show. Sitting on the couch you dont see the driver peeking thru BTW.

S=50's not S=45's Soren is what you see. I like them. fairly simple with a good bit of bass. Definately a "rock n roll speaker". Not B&O's best but not the worst either.

As for the capacitors, I used Nichicon KW Nichicon Muse (bipolars) Elna (R2A ROB ?) where used in the preamps, , decoders and servos and tuners, basically anything in the audio signal path. As for the power supply, display, microcomputers and IR boards a combination of Fujicon RK/TM, Nichicon FW. UWE UVR. In the case of power supply I used high temp caps whenever possible.

All of the Nichicons where purchased from Mouser, the Fujicons from an eBay store in Romainia, and the Elnas from an eBay stoe in California.

Thank you Eugene, S50s are a little bigger in box volume, the woofer is 1 Cm bigger than S 45, and maybe the crossover is different, I wonder why they have a better bass.

I'm impressed of your sortment of audio caps, when I get a little more experience I'm going to try that

You recommended me a powerbridge for my BM 2400 (home made) thats a hit, never gets hot even at nearly full power on 4 speakers.

Well its not for this thread. I'm listening to World Star Festival from the 70s lot of good music on that one, but it has been through some hard times and have some deep scars, so to care for my SMMC4 I have to sit beside it and help a little.
