    Have heard that there are some similarities between the bolt-down 250 and my LFD PA2M (SE) it's a Naim amp have always wanted to try.

    In all fairness, if you haven't tried NVA LS6 speaker cable, you've missed an opportunity. It's an excellent performing cable and very good value for money.

    Aah - I've got the latest Talk 3 stuff made by Talk Electronics (Kevin Edwards' team) which for the money is fantastic, also have some V-D Blue but I'm not sure it's a happy electrical match for old Naim. Someone would hopefully be able confirm suitability? It doesn't work well with the Exposure, way too bright.

    Yep, the latest Talk 3 is British Racing Green in colour, and sounds quite different to my ears to previous Talk cables I have heard - a touch warm and smooth but very musically communicative, imo.

    I have some of the new stuff in my ebay box waiting to be paid for....it will have to wait for a while but intend getting it unless something better second hand comes up.

    Richard, did you ever have any quads, and if you did, what cable did you prefer?

    cheers grant

    Hi Grant - never owned any Quad myself, although a couple of my muso mates love the stuff. Nearly pulled the trigger on a fully Net Audio-modded 34/405 last year but chickened out at the last minute.

    In a similar way to owning certain motorcycles over the years, it almost seems a 'right of passage' to own certain hifi brands. Perhaps Quad is in that list?

    I have had a pair of quad 21l s for years a d love them but ha e felt recently the need to liven them up a tad. Thought some better wire may do the trick and am looking for ideas.
    Have heard good things about the new talk stuff but may do better 2nd hand.
    Thanks for taking the time to reply

    Ah - if we're talking speakers I too have had a pair of 21L's. Really liked them but they needed a big amp to wake them up (I had an Exposure IVDR at the time).

    You really cannot go wrong with the Talk 3, at £4/m it's a proper bargain.

    You heard the Cable Talk 3 at my place when you were over Grant . I've been using it for a while now and don't feel the need to replace it .

    was that the old talk3 or the latest green stuff Brian....I cannot remember.....I gues that must have been where the original idea came from, as I likes the liveliness and tightness of response.
