Hi all,

My Names Dan Barwell I’m a 26yo Senior Composites Engineer for a electric vehicle manufacturer.

I’m based in Banbury Oxfordshire.

Currently have a bit of an oddball hifi/AV system essentially comprising of two systems running into a common power amp for my front speakers, system is listed below.

Denon AVR-X4300H surround sound processor.
Cambridge Audio CXUHD UHD Blu-Ray player
Sony TA-n55es power amp
Rotel RSP-1068 multi channel pre amp (makes a very nice stereo pre-amp on bypass, much better than the denon)
Cambridge Audio Azur 551p phono Pre Amp
Rega rp2 turn table (tango spinner plastic sub bearing, RB250 with steel stub and weight, Rega Carbon cart)
Custom 12v twin input trigger for power amp switching
Audi quest Pearl HDMI’s
Qed performance Graphite interconnects
Qed Anniversary XT Bi-Wire
Beresford TC-7240 to witch between pre-amps into power amp.
Antimode 8033

Speakers:
Fronts are Mordaunt-Short Performance 6’s
Center is Mordaunt Short Mezzo 5C
Rears are Mordaunt Short Mezzo 6’s
Sub is a BK Monolith Plus

Upgrades to come:
New front power amp (Nord 3ch or Cambridge Azure 851w)
6ch or 7ch Power amp (for surround and atmos)
4x Atmos height’s
Another BK Sub
Morduant short Performance 5C center if I can find one.
Proper stereo pure amp/streamer

Don’t have any photos really as it’s all boxed up pending a house move, and this photo doesn’t scale correctly on my phone for some reason.

Hi all, thanks for the welcome.

Speakers are quite big and heavy they are 40kg each, the clarity and sound stage is phenomenal when powered with a decent Amp.
