Yep . I am the elderly guy who looks like he may be sitting down but is, in fact, standing up.
It was genuinely great meeting struts001 and he has been very generous in his comments about my system ( as had @all2ofme before). I mean 6+ from a scale that ends at a platonic ideal of 7 ( Classical music tips - #36 by struts001) !
For the record the cables are Audio Envy with wordclock cables from Van Damme Pulsar. The preamp is an EAR Yoshino PL 868 using Tungsram PC88s. Speakers are the domestic version of the ATCs. The same as the professional ones except there is no blanking plate to move the tweeters for horizontal positioning. And a lovely wood finish.
BTW, the thing poking out of my left shoulder is a Room Lens ( sadly no longer made).
