Just got my Vintage Ted Su strap...tell me what you think. I personally love it. It has so much character...pics don't do it justice. A couple of pics in different lighting.

Motors T is a stunning piece.

I've always wanted a 6.75 but I think the Motors T just might have the edge with the brushed finish.

Yeah the brushed finish really does set it off, especially with the TT bracelet. I wasn't sure about the bezel at first because it wasn't the traditional one but now i wouldn't have it any other way.

Ahhh...i see i got another audio nut on the boards with me...lol

Well i just sold my MCD205 with the C45 pre and gonna try the MCD301 with the tube pre C2300. As of right now i'm using my upstairs CD, the Rotel RCD1072. Not a bad little performer just nowhere near the Mcintosh.

Oh yes, an audio nut here! One of my friends in Scotland owns this place,

Since I took up living basically and moving about a bit I have missed having a decent system.

Rotel make some fine stuff, I have owned several of their CD players, a really natural sound I think.
I love Mcintosh though, I have always been impressed with the sound they make. I love the sound they make through Sonus Fabers!

It's a lovely looking strap, but personally I think it's a little too "informal" for a Bentley. :wink:

Oh just one other thing - go careful with your watch on the top of those speakers. They'll have some pretty hefty magnets in them which will not be very good for your watch movement. When you think that mechanical watches can become magnetised just by being left on nightstand next to a mobile phone, you can imagine the potential for problems on a whopping great speaker.
