Hearing some superb sounds from the Acoustic Research AR20b's Speakers & Denon PMA 350SE & Arcam Alpha 7SE



Happy Listening

Trancelucent 2000 CD

Yeah, some of the old AR speakers are remarkably good. Glad the PMA-350SE is doing the biz. They are really nice sounding amps.

Cheers mate

Got a few bits coming in in the next few weeks including a Rogers Ravensbrook & Marantz 2225

I have just bought a Sony ST S 730 ES tuner for £15 from a charity working very well sounds awesome

[walpurgis]

Really nice little amp the Ravensbrook. I had one paired with AR4Xa speakers and that was a lovely sounding combo. I actually prefered the Ravensbrook to my Sugden A21 and it was nicer sounding than the Rogers Ravensbourne.

Bear that in mind with my A&R's really enjoying them they rarely get used as have a lot of gear about but they are giving fantastic results with extensive listening...

Nice Pioneer SX 440 just in even has 4 of the rare as hens teeth speaker plugs...

Working...Sounds very sweet

[dantheman91]

The Pioneer is a very sweet sounding unit and is in good working order i put the Celestion A1 Compacts on i blew me away with the Quality fantastic....

Back to Benchmark BM1 Speakers i am sure they are a custom order as they do sound astonishing i am using the Denon 350SE to drive them 4 Ohm amp & 4 Ohm speakers just listening to vinyl and i have never heard a speaker this clear and live sounding as these very happy they are far to good for this so they are going in my collection of weird and wonderful speakers weigh a ton made of wood but made to look like metal has that coating on them wish i could find out more on them...

Happy Listening - Listening to - Mr Mister - Welcome to The Real World Vinyl

Bargain Alert purchased another pair of speakers in the name of a lovely pair of Monitor Audio MA16's they were £10 - tested and sound wonderful

Very Happy....

Not heard those Dan. Monitor Audio have made some nice speakers. £10 was a bargain!
