Finally! I've threatened to put up something of "better" quality on YouTube for awhile, and finally got around to it!

This was just done, the system is in better shape than the first posted efforts, and the recording procedure was more carefully carried out.
The microphone is now in a "correct" position - centred in front of the speakers - so the sound more directly matches the ambience of the actual recording, and, of course the level of the raw capture was significantly higher - only 3dB of gain was needed to bring the peak level to within 1dB of the maximum. The playback system overall was not in a fully optimised state, I just wanted to get this recording out of the way, but it does give a decent sense of what the current status of the, A More Ambitious Upgrade (NAD based), system is.
