    Picked up a pair of Jamo E 530 speakers as new on ebay - collected them just now - no idea if they are any good, (anyone know anything about them? Couldn't find much info on the web) but for £15 I can hardly complain! They are destined to be used in my 4th system in the summerhouse so I didn't want to spend a lot. I'll hook them up later and see how they sound.

    Jamo were Europe's biggest speaker maker for some years and I don't think the ones you've bought will be at all bad, in fact quite the opposite if memory serves.

    For £15 and in Ipswich too - bloomin' ell, you lucky beggar
    I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
    I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?

    4th system! Is that so no matter how inebriated you are, you are close to one music making system or another?

    Jamo are a well respected Danish (?) speaker manufacturer. They are used in recording studios.

    I use a pair of even cheaper (they were free) Eltax speakers in my 'audio-visual' system. Eltax are/were, I believe, a division of Jamo.

    Those Tannoys are rather epic. They would require some serious furniture re-arrangements though.

    What about some JBL's -

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/JBL-4312A-CONT...item53e3b0f209

    I nearly bought a pair of these blind as I loved the 4310mk2 that were sold for a short while by Harman UK. the little ATC actives came along at a bargain price instead, but for £500 you've got a Tannoy-esque immediacy but tamed over the 70's 4312 versions..

    Thanks chaps... Yes Barry, I have too much clutter, really, and I just enjoy trying different things, and systems just keep appearing with the bargains I find! All harmless fun, there's far worse things I could spend my money on, like wine, oh, um, well drugs then!
