    Arcam Delta 290 2nd hand upgrade

    Have just got a 2nd hand Arcam Delta 290 to use as a preamp, this replaces my Rotel RC 870bx. The difference is ridiculous, though the Rotel sounds good it has always been bass light and has quite a mid sound to it. Whereas the Arcam has bass that I dreamt of, I knew the Roksan speakers were...

    (Old) Arcam & B&W setup upgrade...suggestions?

    Stick with what you've got, Arcam and B&W are good gear, you don't need to get sucked into the money pit!

    Do speakers loose properties over time

    Me Roksans still sound great after 20+ years, the casing has a few marks but the speakers and tweeters are still going strong.

    Roksan Ojan 3subs

    Should say hard to get hold of but the combination of my stupid phone and this lacklustre forum it won't let me edit

    Roksan Ojan 3subs

    I have a pair of black Roksan Ojan 3 speakers, was wondering if anyone has heard these set up with the Ojan Subs? Though they seem very he'd to get hold of.

    Old new stuff

    Arcam Delta 250 transport arrived. Looks like bloody new and sounds awesome. The synch lock facility does seem to give a much bigger sound with greater separation. Then again nothing makes any difference apparently. So I'll just sit back and enjoy this delusion.

    Old new stuff

    We grew up with an 8track, reel to reel, then a Binatone system. So glad times have changed. Yes the Alpha is a great player, had it about 25 years.

    Old new stuff

    Am excited just bought an Arcam Delta 250 CD transport to go with my Black Box 50. I was using a Rotel RCD02 for a while which was a bit dry sounding when I compared it to my old Arcam Alpha CD, unfortunately my Alpha has developed an electrical buzz. So I can't wait to hear my old new to me...

    Rotel Mono-blocks for 6 ohm speakers

    Nice, I have a pair of 980BX power amps with an 870 pre amp. They sound great.

    Seating position

    It's not going to be for a good while as our daughter is still very young. If we move the couch and things are worse I can always resume the central position. It's tricky as it's just our front room, we don't have a big enough house to have a designated listening room.

    Yes, that's the plan.

    Seating position

    I tried the pillow thing, but wasn't as good as resuming my floor position. I'll see how things sound when we rearrange the room in the future. Maybe one day i'll upgrade the speakers to some taller floor standers, but I love the Roksans, have had them for roughly 20years now and they are great...
