Merry Christmas! And all that holiday mumbo jumbo. No tree this year, so I stacked the Altecs I restored on top of each other. There's ornaments, candy canes, tinsel and a star on top!

xo, Biggles

audio tree

I guess you know when you're a true audiophile when you make a Christmas Tree out of your speakers.
Ain't it great?

It is great and we're enjoying the glow immensely. My boys think I'm nuts, but are not surprised. My wife understands and thinks it's pretty funny, so far.

I like it, no needle cleanup (except maybe the TT, lol) and no watering necessary.

OH man, yer killin' me! Nice shootin' Tex.

Yes, wife is very understanding. We just celebrated our 2 year anniversary. So, this whole speaker junkie thing is new to her and hasn't begun to annoy her, yet.

looks great! Too bad you don't have the lights dance to the music too.

Not to derail your Christmas post, but what are the two pictures on the right? The green one and yellow one below it?

Hey! Very good idea Mr. Biggles, very good indeed. Looks very cozy. I'm going down to the cellar in a little bit to bring up the tree and decorations. I'll have to look and see if there are a few extra strings of lights...

Cheers,
James

his masters voice

All you need now is your favorite reindeer sitting in front of the speakers listening for his masters voice.

There's those and a few more, they're old band posters I found on telephone polls in about '79 to '81. I can remember finding them in Berkeley and taking them home, saved 'em all these years. A few years ago purchased some inexpensive frames and put them up on the wall over my audio stuff.

You can see Flipper, Ramones, Stranglers, Berlin, X, Sparks, and the green one is a big one for Bonnie Hayes and the Wild Combo. I've also got one from when Billy Idol played The Berkeley Square. Oh, and there's a blue one with Paul Collins Beat and Eric Blakely and the Blame. I still have one of Eric's 45's.

That's what that's all about.
