The differences here would be VERY easily measurable, both in response and dispersion. Valves are a no-no for any speaker with crossovers really (they make wonderful hidden graphic equalisers you...

Revel Salon 2's? FFS Pharos :D



I have SHL5's which offer almost exactly the opposite tone to the Tannoys as I remember selling them three quarters of a lifetime ago nearly - YIKES!!!... The 5+...

Best wishes to you Dave and the Missus from all here. Hope the current sunshine will help lift your spirits a little...

Very late reply macca - sorry...

I'd be terrified to have the Krell in such a confined space - remember the main reason why I sold you your first one? ;) Can't post an image, but seriously, there...

I bought an early D-150 to 'augment' my inherited bridged D-60's as bridging them, makes the sound a touch 'looser' into the porty boxes I use and the 150 (as does my stereo 60 as you've bought)...

Hope the new D-60 owner likes this little amp - it really is seriously good if 50WPC typical is enough and was pretty much state of the art when I started out at one of the three only domestic...

I've known the Klout since launch and have heard various samples in different systems until it was discontinued.

I'm going to say that this amp, together with late issue LK280's, tends to suffer...

Watch the body and don't flex it! The internal coil wires break very easily as did mine. The original styli were horribly made but a VDH one should do wonders if well set up.

Thanks for greets. I'm weaning myself off forums now but it's damned hard and is taking time. My ears aren't what they were (understatement) and objective tests mean more than ever to me, but this...

Don, have you tried Harbeth themselves? Spendor's Terry Miles is now working alongside Alan there and as Terry was the 'wizz' who could properly restore BC1 bass drivers (bear with me), he or Harbeth...

Dudley Harwood's very first HL speaker also had a large upper mid dip (something to do with his religious beliefs and not listening to reproduced human voice - or summat?), but this was quickly...

Generally accepted by whom may I ask? Alan Shaw who had competing boxes to sell and who was annoyed the beeb went over to Dynaudio actives for general noise-box use (and some Genelecs I believe for...

The BBC designed for THEMSELVES, knew what they wanted and the5/8 and 5/9 were NOT flawed in quite the way you put it. They're positively neutral compared to your average Pro-Ac, PMC (both with very...

If a Croft sounds 'Meh' then it's either tired valves or a very badly matched system in my experience. Apart from some of the slightly softer toned original 80's stuff (Series 4 power amps usually)...

Also on the German Lowbeats site (apologies if I've posted this before)

NOOOOOO!!!! It's my experience when setting these things up for a living that too much effing damping KILLS this arm, slugging the bass and making the whole thing tuneless - tried on several decks...

No idea if this is true, but around seventeen or eighteen years ago, the silver fronted Exposure amps were reported to have been designed by Talk Electronics' Kevin Edwards. No idea at all, but the...

FFS fellas - the whole point of the LP12 design WAS the single point bearing in an oil-bath design, the rest 'borrowed' a lot from the TD150 ime.

The two platters weren't ever matched pairs I...

Re the Eroika... Don't you chaps have handling issues with 'microphonics' with these? maybe I have the wrong model, but I do think you can get far better these days. Just my opinion of course.

I...

NOS DACs can put out loads of ultrasonic rubbish and according to info measured here and there, it's not low in level either, so be warned. May cause distortion at audio frequencies, thereby adding...

Notts Analogue Spacemat! Way better than the felt mat on pre-Cirkus LP12's but less good with the Cirkus decks and it's only twenty quid or so retail. Current LP12's are a rather different animal...

Something Solid do arguably the best 'sounding' ones for all P3 types (check exact size first), but the current fashion followers go for wooden types which cost two or three times the amount. Harbeth...

So now with all the bits left over, you can re-construct the old Rega deck as it was originally?

All these bling changes and the motor for ages was still fed from the very basic Planar 2 120V cap...

Tony, most people here will only think of Spendor as the makers of the BC1 and 'everything else' that came after - not all of it being very good if the mid period slush-boxes (or squeak boxes if the...

The S6e isn't as forward as a D7 can be (I'm not saying this as any criticism, just a comment on where Spendor biggies are at away from the old classic stuff) and Ollie, you might find them too laid...
