First Bits Arrive at the Velvet Mill

Posted byDavid CopePosted inUncategorized
DeVore Fidelity O/96, accompanied by Luna Red speaker cable, have landed.
Shindo Laboratory Cortese F2A is in the house. Its partner, the Monbrison, arrived after this photo was taken. Perhaps I should bring a rack over. 😁
Chord Electronics’ DAVE beamed over, along with AcousticPlan’s DigiMaster CD transport, Innuos Zen MkIII server and a LOT of Luna Cables.

There’s also a chair, so listening is now possible. Today I’ll get the first concrete idea of how this space sounds. An area rug, couch and wall unit will improve things, but at least I’ll have a base line established.

Soo much more to come, and just me and my CRV to get ‘er done. Fortunately AND unfortunately, there’s no rush.

After 15 years doing audio shows and marketing for Audio Note, UK, I took a year off, intending to establish a recording studio dedicated to making natural, minimally processed recordings of acoustic instruments playing jazz, folk, blues, bluegrass and classical music. Somewhere along the way I borrowed a pair of Auditorium 755 speakers and a Shindo pre-amp and power amp from Jonathan Halpern of Tone Imports. Quick as you can say, "Bob's your uncle!", I had become an audio retailer, using Old Forge Studio as a dual purpose space. It's all very exciting and more than a bit crazy . . .
