Albarry

[trio leo]

Greetings fellow music lovers, I have just heard the new Albarry AP11 pre amp and M608 power amps at the Audio Works in Cheadle, I was amazed how fast,dynamic,articulate and musically involving they were, the red fronts are reminiscent of the legendary M408s we saw in the 80s. The pre amp comes with a MM phono stage for us vinyl lovers and is fantastic value for money at around £1,650, the 60 watt power amps are about £2,550 per pair, this is high end Hi-Fi at it's best, do yourself a musical favour and go to hear them, if you live in the south, Radlett Audio have them, PS there's a lot of new vinyl out there. Enjoy your music fellas, regards Al

Ok, you've heard them and think they're great - I shall do the same next week at RADLETT AUDIO - HiFi dave's place (well, if one person's going to do a plug for their dealer, why not I for an old mate???)

The thing is, when are you going to BUY a set sir? One thing to rave about something, but quite another and better thing to put money where mouth is and purchase some???

The preamp interests me especially, as apparently it's the first preamp of any persuasion that Dave's heard which has no hum with a London Decca...... :)

I have a wide range of musical interests, female vocal, soul, light rock and classical if I'm in the mood. thanks for the interest, enjoy your music. regards Al

Enjoy your music. Regards Al

Hi Alan, welcome to AoS.

Was it your legs or the the ones on the rack that were cryogenically frozen? Sounds interesting/painful, depending on the answer! :lol: Does it really make a difference? (Assuming it was the rack!)

Dave - to be fair, Alan did mention Radlett Audio in his first post... (Does everyone know that as well as from Audio Works in Cheadle you can also get these amplifiers from forum member hifi_dave - owner of Radlett Audio??? ;))

I'm sure you'll enjoy the forum, and sorry for pulling your (cryogenically frozen) leg! I just can't help myself, and I've not even had a drink yet (well apart from half a bottle of meths, but that doesn't count, does it?) :)

Hi Alex, I appreciate a laugh, so far everything that I have heard that has been cryo'd has made a noticeable difference, the black bits get blacker and it appears to significantly reduce background noise and you find you want to turn it up, I have found a similar response using acrylic shelves or even the acrylic stands I have underneath my power supplies for the t/table and the pre amp and under the Music Works mains bloc, I have heard how good the Music Works new Acrylic tables are but I need 2 and they are not cheap, still, bit at a time eh. regards Alan
