Adrian - Sales Consultant: Joined Audio T in 2002
First job: Technical Assistant to a Civil Engineer
Musical tastes: The Cult and The Cure to start with; too much dance, ambient and rock to list in the middle and more recently, Ben Harper, Goldfrapp, Kings of Leon and The Black Keys. I also enjoy funk, classical and jazz (though not the modern stuff, or Steely Dan, or Cleo Laine.)
Favourite gig: Goldfrapp at Somerset House
Favourite film: too close to call between The Usual Suspects, Twelve Angry Men (original version) and the Lord of the Rings director’s cut trilogy
First system: Well, after the inherited Sharp "music centre" and the Matsui ghetto blaster I bought a Systemdek IIX, Linn Basik arm, Goldring cart, Rotel RA840 amp and Celestion DL6 speakers from this very store.
Current system: Primare hi-fi and home cinema electronics with Focal Profile loudspeakers.
Dream system: Rega Naia with Aura phono stage, Linn streamer with Chord Electronics Dave and M-scaler, Chord pre/power with ATCSCM100 speakers.


Andy - Sales Consultant: Joined Audio T in 2022
First job: Stockroom assistant in Shoe Shop
Musical tastes: Tough question. I've got the much used phrase "eclectic tastes". But the one constant since my teenage years would be The Smiths.
First gig: The Jam, Nov. 82 at the Afan Lido, Port Talbot.
Favourite film:  Again tough question, far too many to list, but having seen it recently again, "The Third Man".
First system: Inherited from my Dad. AR 77XB turntable with a Shure 75 cartridge, Sansui Amplifier and Kef speakers. I thought it sounded amazing! I was 11.
Current system:  Had a Linn Lp12/Lingo/Ekos/Koetsu Urushi but sold it as I thought the Rega 10/Aphelion was now a better combination than it. However the Rega Naia has been now been announced/introduced..... In the meantime I've a Naim CDi, Michell Delphini Dual Mono phono stage (when I decide which TT to have!), Conrad Johnson PV10B pre-amp, Art Audio Concerto power amp, Sonus Faber Grand Piano loudspeakers. Soon to be joined by a Bluesound Node.
Dream system: Rega Naiad, Esoteric Grandiose Cd transport, Auralic Aries G3 streaming transport, Chord Electronics Dave/Upsampler,  Conrad Johnson Art phono stage/Pre/Mono Amps, Sonus Faber Stradivarius loudspeakers.
