Thanks. I can save £2 if I get them off ebay. That £2 might come in handy.

Hi Spendorman,
I used the DM2 speakers with my little KEL84 amp, stunning sounds, these are still great sounding speakers, pleased they have gone to a good home.
Still have 2 pairs left!!!

I have about 5 pairs DM2 / DM2a, 4 double double stacked per channel.
Stacked sounds rather good. I think I'll need a bigger house, though. From what I understand there should be some foam behind the grills in front of the drivers. If so, will some thin(ish) foam from the likes of Wilmslow Audio do the trick?
Can't wait to get my Leak hooked up. I might go splashing the cash at Maplins and get the £2 connectors tomorrow.
Hope the tuner is okay V-spinner, and survived being almost run over.
Hi Mark,
Good to meet you yesterday, listening to the tuner at the moment, sounds fine.
Glad you are pleased with the speakers, would you like a copy of the manual etc?
Also I must add that your £55 system sounded great and just shows that you don't need to spend a lot to get a nice sound, bedsit students take note!!

It's very old now (the Stereo 70), but back in the early 80's we had a Stereo 70 as a loan amp. This thing was around ten to twelve years old then and compared well with a NAD 3020, itself a class leader at the time and still a great bargain today if you can find a good one..Quote:

Well done on the system, a fantastic result for fifty-five quid! Totally proved that the theory behind the challenge is sound (ahem...) - for less than the price of an ipod dock speaker system you CAN get proper hifi results! :)
Bring on your 2012 system!
My Delta 70 is from 82. I'm looking forward to hearing it with the B&W's.
Nigel I may be interested in one of the other pairs you have. Mostly as a set of spare drivers. Thanks for your comments about my system. I was quite happy with it once a few people were in the room to act as absorption. I got positive comments about it all day, except from a dick that popped in to tell me how much he disliked Linn speakers.
With the Leak and the B&W's I think I can better it. Just need to find the right source.
Alex, I joined the forums at different times, and for some dumb reason used different names.
The 2012 system will be pretty special. I'm determined to get a decent vinyl setup.
I'll make sure I get a better room, though. When I first got shown my room it had a massage table and all the oils n stuff in. I was thinking I'd got the wrong show. I might take a selection of soft furnishings as well next year. A small pair of curtains didn't quite do the trick. I thought the system sounded best with all 24 cans of beer on the rack.

Are we confusing Leak and Arcam delta products?Quote:
