Thank you for advice, just it’s too general. I guess all major manufacturers had plenty models in various ranges, some very average, some excellent..
Thank you. May I ask what Aiwa model replaced the JVC? What was better on JVC?
I have searched and D55 model is out of my range, more like £250-300, but one available is serviced. There is also A55...

Thus I went for Denon DR-M22 at the end.
The deck is not in bad shape for 38 year machine, some scratches on top and sides.
Front panel is clean including door glass, and as far I could see,...
Yes, my mistake..
Thank you, will think about it..
Yes, hard to find anything serviced for that price. The servicing adds roughly £100-200 more to unserviced decks, in this case less then that. I guess I need to go with unserviced one, and if I will...
Yes, the people say they are good. I just have a little inner prejudice based on other middle/ lower range of Yamaha other components like CD players and amplifiers.. from what I had chance to listen...
Thank you, yes, I did some research, from price point, the humble Denon DR-M10 might be sufficient for me. Probably not many people have experience with direct comparison of it and let’s say higher...
Yes, that’s why it should be too expensive. That it can be replaced..
Hi guys.
After exploring this topic I am still undecided to what deck should I go with from present choices on SH market.
This is my temporary selection, but I am open to other advices.
Denon...
Quite interesting info, thank you.
The both MA silver 50 and silver 100 have brighter signature, yes, the 100s sounding bigger cause of 8” driver, but at the same time somehow similar (but even...
Perhaps you are right, the R100s are calmer and fuller sounding despite smaller boxes and smaller drivers. I will try to run them for a while..
Thank you for the answer.
The difference between the R100 and Q350 trebles extension is not clear to me from that though. Both CA851A and Sony have very probably some reserves touching power supply...
Hi everyone, recently bought these speakers in nice condition and curious about opinion of others who had an opportunity to listen to them.
Specifically interested in:
-are they easy or hard to...
Hi Everyone,
looking for tonearm Alphason HR-100S or Jelco SA-750D.
Is there some for sale here?
Thank you.
Yes, already with me, feedback left.
Pity I can not upload picture from my mobile here. The kit is in Eltax Liberty 3 enclosures and they sound lovely.
Thank you!

+1 to Logitech Harmony remote controls
For £35 one can get cheap 350 model to control 4 devices I think.
I can’t see good reason (false peace of mind) to hunt for original remotes sometimes for not...
KEF R300 or LS50 would be also interesting choices if standmounts.
Basically yes, just noticed mine has model number 728III on front panel instead of 728A. More like on hifi exquis web site:...
And the last, for now I am happy with it as it is, so no urge to change the valves 😎
Also I didn’t notice any bass or other boost when tone controls disabled, seems the sound has the same signature and strength with tone controls engaged in 0 position as with direct signal path....
Running it about week- two weeks, not sure how many hours, wanted to reach first 100 hours for tubes to open, but even now it is transparent sounding preamp, I have to say I am happy with what I...
