This weeks system will be :-

[Firebottle]

I've got my sub crossed over very low for the frequency setting, about 38Hz, but there are limited pieces of music with any real content that low.

The beauty of the REL approach (a copy actually - you didn't think I'd buy one surely ) is that everything is adjustable.

Current Main System with Castle Tyne MK1 Speakers - Pleasantly Surprised

And systems 2 and 3 also

[Audio Al]

Slight change this week , the Yamaha pre and power now substituted for my Audio Innovations 500 integrated valve amp , see how the Ruark's perform with valve power up them

[337alant]

I love Ruark speakers they are very good indeed
They sound very natural and have great bass, they sounded fab on the end of my Hackernap amp at one of the NEBOs (Talismans I think)

My spearers are Ruark Templar 2 , may try them with my Technics and Shelter 5000 MC cartridge . I agree they do sound rather good

Time for change , But before I swop out this TT , Thought I would show a few images of the arm
Different way of attaching the head shell

Well This Week:

Kenwood BE9 Pre - Power Amps
Tannoy DC 1000 Speakers
Realistic Phono Preamp to Rega Planer 2 - Orto - Super 10 ,
Pioneer PDS 505 Precision

Second System Same

Testing Cambridge P40 Amp

[walpurgis]

Those DC1000 Tannoys are ridiculously easy to drive. I used to get monstrous loudness out of mine even with 8 watt valve amps.

They are indeed Geoff they will be in the collection for a long time yet they are very capable speakers reaching excess volume with ease i'm sure these are also going up in value.
