My motorcyclist ...Hello from another Vancouverite.<br /><br />My motorcyclist friend in HK intrigued me with his love of valve amplifiers. When he played Forgotten Times on one of his units, that gave me quite some shivers.<br /><br />Turned out, my spouse has a high-school classmate who's married to a family that manufactures and sells such units on Apliu Street, although it's not Audio Space where the Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09967701111471284741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4781727111866727703.post-5624255867380090972019-04-23T16:00:31.796-07:002019-04-23T16:00:31.796-07:00Hi Archimago, I got given a copy of Tsai Chin Clas...Hi Archimago, I got given a copy of Tsai Chin Classical LP and it has forgotten time on it but do you know if there is a LP pressing of the version which featured in the movie?

Bizarre that the "LPCD" is even more expensive given the fact that it's just a CD... Would have thought it would be the other way around.<br /><br />I'll certainly flag that show as something to keep an eye out for in the years ahead if I'm out Archimagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08642574001287787545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4781727111866727703.post-27159098347228380982016-09-04T10:01:24.120-07:002016-09-04T10:01:24.120-07:00Yes I am still living in Hong Kong.

And you can find a very nice shop / showroom is at Central (Hong Kong side) at Li Dong Building, 9 Li Yuen St E.

It was really hot throughout the time we were there, but at least the last couple days in Beijing cooled down a bit and was actually quite comfortable with blue skies.

I was a lot of work but I do still enjoy what I am doing, had also a good amount of fun and have done some hiking in the mountains (sweating like hell but at the end of the day, felt always happy) and met again some nice HiFi and Music fans that makes my journey a pleasure.<br />谢谢, 再见<br />PS: 我讲一些普通话,但没有粤语JR_Audiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547557948411188806noreply@blogger.com
