    Hello,

    Does anyone have experience dealing with Converted Into Sound based in Swindon?

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    Nothing on a google search, lots of expensive kit and no address on the website I could find. I would leave well alone unless others know it to be sound.

    There was a similar thread a couple of weeks ago. Not sure if it was the same company/person ?

    I would say it’s pretty obviously a con website. There are a number of suspicious qualities to the website - but the single most suspicious is that there are only a handful of dealers in the UK that can carry equipment like this and none of them have that range of speakers (all photographed in different settings too).

    ——-

    I googled the copy for the Avalon Isis - the picture is not from the UK (you can see the mains sockets on the wall between the speakers) and the same picture and description is used on a number of foreign e
    Websites - like here https://www.hifionline.cz/hifibazar/...ence-speakers/

    This is 100% certain a con.

    Sorry Con Artist. We had them on the Wam. The Stradivarius speaker's image is from a sold item on Choice Hifi. Do NOT waste any money. Wilson Alexias at £12,500 when the RRP is >£50K.

    The website is appallingly cheap and clunky. It's been created via a diy website builder program ( wix.com) offering a potentially free service. Nothing wrong with that per se , but not in the context of hi-fi of this value.
