Keep meaning to post this. I have a subscription to collect these gold-plated coins with famous steam locomotives. £40 a month I'm paying, but don't want to stop because I want to fill this tray, and I'll also get a free display case at the end. How's that for a frivolous purchase?
They'll really complement your Elvis Dambusters Tutankhamen clock.

My OH did some dusting over the weekend and just had to clean the Mission sub-woofer with the grill off handily putting her thumb through the rubber cone mount. The whole surround system ran off of this.

All the excuse I needed to get the Naim Mu-so I was after. smile

How does it sound?
Heard mixed reviews about them, some not that good.
I've not got mine yet but almost all the reviews I've read have been positive. No point judging it on the sound in a department store as acoustics would be all different.

I don't expect it to compete with a full separates system but I need something compact at the moment.

Wasn't there a thread along these lines?

From memory, the winged horse of chav tat, or something along those lines.

That Fuggler is great! Where do you get it, and how much was it? I can only see an etsy link.

Looks like an impressive device, though lack of SD card expansion always puts me off

Not sure exactly why I felt I needed this last night... If I'd had more than the one beer it wouldn't need explaining in the same way.

I've lived with 16Gb of storage for a good while, 64 is luxury!

The only real Fugglers are from Mrs McGettericks fuggler emporium on ETSY, she also has a facebook page too.
My wife has one sat next the bed that I bought her for christmas. Her reaction went from WTF to loving it very quickly.

I'm strangely drawn to that, so trigger, as they say on the lease thread, has now been pulled. I need more clutter in my life...
