    Default Heybrook Prima Speakers

    Seems like these have just landed in the smith towers Seem very well made and quite heavy i think i'll have some fun later on...not much on the net about them they were miss advertised but knew they were heybrooks when i saw the photo...gave a decent but cheap price for them....

    I also bought an Empire 2000X cartridge too

    Things are getting out of control....... Im overstocked and have no room...

    Serves you right!

    Now you know how it feels to be like the rest of us!!


    (the Empire cartridge should be pretty decent, I'll reserve judgement on the Heybrooks, as I'm not a fan of that tweeter)
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Too confirm these are an excellent match with Quadies 33 & 303

    Just running them up after another month in their boxes

    For the price this is a system....
