    Aye it was a good and bad day for me, i took the Monitor Audios, a Firebottle OTP3 and my turn turntable, unfortunately i damaged the arm in transit so i was a bit pissed off to say the least.

    Some of the highlights for me were the little Sony bookshelf speakers Alan brought, the Radford (obviously) and that beast of a Naim CD player. The room's a bit tight to get everyone in but it's more than made up by the food, drink and great folks that attend NEBO.......bring on 11!!!!!

    Nope. DSP is set for 200hz 2nd order crossover, just runs flat down to 20hz. Amp has 3000w to play with, no trouble getting the cones moving. :-)

    Did sound a little bass light in that room, at home the bass can be almost frightening at times.

    It still did it’s OB thang, tight and fast. Wasn’t poor by any means, there’s just a fair bit more of it at home.

    There's a Derek Trucks Band.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Yes Derek Trucks, sounded good.

    Shane, the 555 sounded superb, definitely the best cd Ive ever heard.
