    indeed , i always get my son to test various bits of kit , even took him to speaker demo`s as its good to have a young pair of ears . and he soon tells me if they are trash or not !! a recent pai of speakers i had nearly got thrown out of the window by him as he hated them so much !!!
    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    They worked really well with my solid state amps and the wee fella reckons they work really well with the Crofts.

    A wee visit planned at MikieBs next week so will take mine across with some other wires and see how they get on with his big tannoys and a proper valve set up.
    When you going Tony?
    Wouldnt mind tagging along and saying Hi to Mikey.

    Had this cable in for a few hours now and WOW!!!
    I cannot believe the difference one cable has made to my system.
    I put it between my Phono and Pre, straight away more detail bigger sound stage and beautiful clean bass.
    I was using Atlas Intengra and these blow them off the planet.
    I seem to be feeling more emotion comin from the music, Placebo's Unplugged had me open mouthed at times.
    I can't had much more to what's already been said about these Spotfire cables but you need to have a demo!!!
    Massive change for me
    I'm ordering!!!
