No HOTAS? - the horror, the horror. Must be fun landing. ;)

... and flying, and combat, and ...



Logitech gamepad :D

Double analogue mushroom sticks work perfectly. I never have any issues when it comes to flying the ship. Using a mouse and a keyboard is just playing the game on insane difficulty hehe

Nothing really special, especially since I don't really have room for the HOTAS, but here goes...

This is my largest issue at the moment! Stupid teensy little second-hand desk. LOL.

It is a bit of a classic and fairly rare. It's a 1971 NAD (New Audio Dimension before they changed it to NAD) Model 160 thats been restored and is in mint condition.

I use it as a headphone amp only, you can see a pair of HiFiMan HE-500 next to it. Sounds amazing :twisted:

It's a hobby of mine, I also have a Yamaha CR-1020, circa 1978, on my main headphone rig that I restored myself. It's a good and cheap way to get great sounding kit that can easily beat stuff that costs thousands. :mrgreen:

Mine is a classic Flight Sim place, not seen are the G430 headset, Saitek Pro pedals, Saitek Yoke and Thrustmaster T16000M joystick.
I have to unplug the Saitek quadrant for Elite as the levers conflict with joystick axes.

Left of the main monitor is my co-pilot Jojo the bear and on the right my HP laptop I use with Elite Commander's Log (and the cushion is for the cat...)

Sweet. Is it a wooden case?

I had a few NAD's in my time. I started with the 3020. I've currently got an Onkyo TX-SR604 surround receiver which I bought second hand for 50 pounds, as I wanted the hdmi sockets for true surround from my pc. Couldn't find a NAD at that price point. ;) But I'm actually quite pleased with it. It's got a bit of that warmth and presence that most NAD's have. I had a Denon once. Played excellently, but was too sterile. :)

Just finished setting up the monitors last night. Working on getting the wires all in some split wire loom at the moment for a cleaner look. LOVE it so far. Now I just need some more internal upgrades.. it never ends lol.
