Took me a while to get from registering to having my account activated but it's live now :)

Currently in the midst of selling one system (Cyrus 8vs2 and B&W CM5's) to make way for an active speaker system to be fed via iTunes etc...

Also looking for another amp to make a 2nd system just for me upstairs away from SWMBO and it total P&Q :D

Looks a good forum so cant wait to get nattering ;)

Hi Dan,
Welcome to AoS.
So what will your new system consist of - or are you still working that out?

Well my main system is a Cyrus StreamXP, Cyrus XPower power amp, x2 PSX-R's and Monitor Audio GX100's (could soon be looking to get some B&W 805's though and Cyrus mono's...

2nd system will revolve around my ever lasting Acoustic Energy AE109's :D

Thinking along the lines of a decent Arcam integrated and music via iTunes/Apple TV2 and a DAC...

Hi Dan, welcome to the forum from me to :) Go active, you know you want to :D

I'd never consider going back to a passive set of speakers in my main setup again :nono: But that's just me, I don't dislike passive speakers as I use them in other setups, but they don't get used very often ;)


Hope you enjoy your stay here :cool:

Hi

Yeah tempted by active but not just yet...

Only heard the ADM9.1's and in all honesty; didn't like them. Bass shy and a bit plain :scratch:

Can't say I have ever heard any ADM models, quite a few active ATCs though :)

My speakers were originally passive & completely different to what they are now enclosure wise & driver complement.

Loves a bit of DIY myself :eyebrows:

Ah you see I'm not that brave! Well I'm ok with cars but not when it comes to speakers etc...

I'm better at breaking/bending things rather than fixing them/modifying them!

I did initially think about the EPOZ Aktimate speakers but I didnt think they'd cater for the sound and bass-depth I like but I'm sure better can be had for a few more hundred £££!
