One of the oldest systems here!!

Postby Nak-Mad » Tue Feb 01, 2011 10:31 pm

Oki doki,...you guy's like piccies, piccies herewith: vintage audio porn for some..a big guffaw for others... you can almost see the yellowing with age :D , and this will also give you some idea how I got 'so' christened... 8-) ... just part of the harem...

Since moving back from Oz, I lost my Audio room, (big houses in Sydney norwest).. so everything is crammed into the man cave upstairs.. not really a condusive environment but better than nothing. Room also doubles as my photo lab/ modelling room (plastic kits :o )/ and repair bench.. hence the clutter and general disarray.... but short of a beer fridge and a bog..I can stay in there for days.

This is the main rig.......

Wow, that’s unreal Nak - tons of beaut Nakamichi’s and turntables galore.
The large tt in your main rig (far lhs) looks like a Luxman, but I’m not so sure - am I wrong?

Great gear though mate, all that audio jewellery must keep you totally engrossed :D :D

Boy, I was pwned there - guess I should brush up on my Thorens knowledge, after all I did own a TD160MK2 complete with Isotrack arm once upon a time.
Gave it to my oldest brother, heaven knows where it is now :roll:

Very cool! That is a crapload of stuff!

I like the idea of a modelling room.... I have a desk in my office that is my modelling space (when I get the time...)

Predictably WW2 German Armour. I will post a pic when I get home.... Also 70mm figures (like the old Poste Militaire Keith Durham series) and the odd 120mm Verlinden dude as well...

Actually, if you are interested, here is a link to the Military Modelling forum where I posted some pics of a Sturmtiger I built a couple of years or so ago

Another zimmerit addict :lol: ... that Sturmtiger looks cool. Neil, ...so does the Panther.. wish my armour looked that good, but need heaps more practise :oops: .. totally different techniques required vs Plane modelling..


Do you belong to any club, like AMPS?, or still a closet modeller?... (I'd know if you were a member of IPMS :D )

I used to belong to IPMS way back in the early 90's in fact I won the 1991 nationals for Armour and Figures when I was a mere 15 year old sprog! I will post pics of those if you're keen later as well.

I suck at planes.... although I am going to build a Spitfire one of these days!
