No idea on the stands just picked up cheap from St Somewhere but perfect for the MA's...
When I say old English white I am referring to cream version with the grey transformer caps and the only colour I've seen along with the light blue.

Lovely system!
I love the fact that it is quite compact and very tidy...
Quite the opposite to mine...

Integrating large and small components gives rise to the art of Ying and Yang... The concept of dualism when seemingly opposite or contrary forces can actually be complementary....I love the fact that it is quite compact and very tidy...
Would love to audition those compact Triangle speakers you have especially as I heard they are quite sensitive.

Very nice set up, some lovely kit there.
“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

I used to have their bigger brothers the ANTAL ES. And I drove them with an Icon Audio 40. The result was Ok, but it never gave me total satisfaction.Originally Posted by Miller
On the other hand these diminutive Comete ES are very much suited to my tiny room (3,25 m x 3.40m). The bass is not earth shattering but it is clean and dynamic, never overbloated. And the rest of the spectrum is beautifully integrated in my view.
One can have these for almost beer money, so I would say entirely worth a punt with even flea powered OTO (12W more or less).

Here is a pic of the 103 which has a steel SME spacer to get the required height within the headshell and add mass.Could we see a nice close-up please of your EMT? Particularly also one of the arm/headshell and how you've mounted the 103
Will post up some more pictures hopefully today.
