Thanks. She has been talking about wishing she had bought an R6 for ages - saying she will get less noise in poor light etc. Im not one for expensive meals or trips abroad but felt I had to buy her this tool so she can get more out of her passion for photography - maybe even make money out of it.Hi Stuart
First time I've read this thread, so firstly just wanted to say what a kind and lovely gesture this was.
I'm surprised to read your last comment that she hasn't used it, is she a little unsure of stepping away from the comfort of knowing what she has with the R10? Maybe ask her if she wants to keep it, if not sell it.
Before I met my wife 26 years ago I was heavily into mixing dance music and I had a pair of Technics 1210s in my flat, spent many hours on them, wish I'd kept them.
Then just after I met her in December 2000, I went up North to see my family for Christmas and was due back down here for a party just before New Year, and when my now wife asked if I was coming to hers before the party we were going to, I said 'I just need to go home first and put my decks up' (as I'd taken them with me), later she told me she thought to herself 'Awww Isn't he lovely, wants to go and put his Christmas decorations up first'
I did ask her and she said she does not want to sell. She assures me she has not forgotten about it.
I will get back on this thread when she finally uses it!
Technics 1210 - they fetch a good price used still.
I had a great set up before marriage - valve pre and power amps etc - fab turntable - sold it all to pay for domestic expenses etc. Now I am divorced and getting into it again. I have a Rega 2 which I am happy with.
