Nice old pair of Leak 600 speakers in Somerset. Ends tomorrow, may go cheap.

Oooh... Those look very interesting indeed - possible 'giant-killers' there, me thinks!

Isonoe feet & boots. Ortofon RS-212D tonearm with Denon DL-103GL, in a Denon PCL-300 headshell, fitted with Funk Firm Houdini and Kondo SL-115 pure-silver cartridge leads.

Other Cartridges: Nippon Columbia (NOS 1987) Denon DL-103. USA-made Shure SC35C with NOS stylus. Goldring G820 with NOS stylus. Shure M55E with NOS stylus.
CD Player: Audiocom-modified Sony X-777ES/DAS-R1 DAC.

Preamps: Heavily-modified Croft Charisma-X. Power Amps: Tube Distinctions Copper Amp, fitted with Tungsol KT-150s. Quad 306.
Cables & Sundries: Mark Grant HDX1 interconnects and digital coaxial cable, plus Mark Grant 6mm UP-LCOFC Van Damme speaker cable. MCRU 'Ultimate' mains leads. Lehmann clone headphone amp with vintage Koss PRO-4AAA headphones.
Tube Distinctions digital noise filter. VPI HW16.5 record cleaning machine.
Speakers: Tannoy 15MGs in Lockwood cabinets with modified crossovers. 1967 Celestion Ditton 15.
I'm not keen on the frequency spectrum being divided five ways, but they may sound brilliant for all that.
The B&O speaker to watch out for is the Beovox 5702. All Celestion drivers, basically a Ditton 66 with 10" bass driver and ABR, amazing! Check it out.

Nice, but they're not tempting me away from my beloved MS150s!

Vintage Goodmans Maxim speakers in Margate. Watch the bidding go silly on these. I used to buy them from boot sales for about a fiver (that's about all they're really worth).
