    Just spotted this SUT. I wouldn't give a tenner for it. I had one a while back and it was dull and thick sounding.

    And these ATs are little better.

    But this Fidelity Research unit is a cracker. I've had a couple.

    Ah haha! At least snake oil can be a good bearing lubricant. I thought Analogue Seduction was a serious hifi dealer? Perhaps they are being serious but in the industry too long that everything makes a positive difference now - analitical fatigue.

    The Maxims are well overpriced crap anyway. I've owned them. Usually I paid about £8 a pair at boot sales and they're not very good.
    I see these are still for sale. I do hope nobody is daft enough to buy them.

    A pair of these arrived today.

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3015066710...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    Rather nice felted paper pulp cones with a good degree of self damping from what I can tell by tapping the cone. I may even dope them.

    Ordered a pair of these to go with them.

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2912477329...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    All very cheap & cheerful, just for a bit of fun.
