My name is Geoff and I have been interested in music and hifi for more than four decades.
Recently, I refurbished one of my bucket-list speakers, the Gale GS401A, with the help of Dave Smith, from VintageGale, and it gave me an introduction into the hobby of redeveloping and restoring audio equipment. Subsequently, I recapped my Yamaha NS1000, rotated the woofers, and replaced the binding posts, and the improvement was absolutely palpable. As a result, I did the same for my friend and his pair of NS1000M.
I have no technical knowledge, just time, patience, a willingness to learn, and some enthusiasm.
I have now picked up a set of Sony SS-5050 Carbocon and will, no doubt, be seeking some advice.

Welcome, Geoff. I recognise your name from UK forums. You'll like it here - I've learnt a huge amount.
PS When you say NW UK do you mean my neck of the woods (western Scotland) or NW England?
