    Just get a Monarchy Audio SM-70 Pro. Mine sounds astonishing through the Tannoys.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    A quick Google image search show its looks nice & simple inside... Mosfet outputs, class a, extremely low component count, massive power supply.... Looks like something Nelson Pass would design

    Have you heard any Pass designs Geoff ?

    What the ferk are these? 12" Tannoy HPDs with tweeters and midrange units added. Why? Makes you wonder if the compression horns in the main drivers are working.

    Here's one for Ditton 15XR fans. The UL8 2, the final development of the 8" driver + ABR design from Celestion. These are pretty rare.

    Rare, Riadho Emilie S-Centric speakers. Not heard these, but they are reputed to be superb.

    Well I did have a Forte Model 2 pre-amp, which was remarkably good. I sold it reluctantly once I got my current Ming Da TVC pre (which drives the Monarchy Audio power amp). I also recall listening to an early Aleph power amp in a system, but don't remember what it sounded like. I'd like to try the Aleph 3, quite similar in concept to the SM-70 Pro.

    Says he had them re-coned by Tannoy so you would think they are working but maybe deliberately disconnected. I'd give them a go at £250 but collection only from somewhere I have never heard of so it won't be nearby. The WAF on them is down through the floor.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
