"What a refreshingly honest blog about listening to music through hi-fi. So happy to see views based upon the enjoyment of music rather than so-called sound 'quality'." - Peter Comeau, Director of Acoustic Design at Mission / Wharfedale

Temporary Main System

We're in the middle of re-decorating our lounge and have hit some supply issues which means a few weeks with no progress.

Given that the main Linn / Meridian / Cyrus / Linn Aktiv Keilidhs system is all dismantled and take about 3-4 hours to carefully re-commission, this gave me a bit a problem with no music in this room.

So a bit of lateral thinking and I'm now listening to my Squeezebox Touch through an hastily unboxed 8 Power and into a pair of Mission 771e speakers that were in their box in the garage.  With some Linn K20 and a pair of Chord Calypsos stringing it together I was back in action in 20 minutes.

Marvellous.  Sounding pretty good too. (Click images to enlarge)
