    Will A85 drive Mission 753s?

    I haven't heard the Freedoms or the 752's so I can't really coment on them, however I am an owner of the 753's & I think they were a great purchase. No regrets.

    Cartridge required to reveal more detail from my vinyl

    I had the phono stage going into the Line in on the A400 amplifier, reason being is that I thought/was told the phono stage in on the amp wasn't very good. Anyway took the phono stage out of the loop and plugged it directly into the amp, I would say it sound pretty much the same and a tad...

    Kef LS50 VS Kef R100

    I have had the pleasure to listen to both speakers you mention on a demo although with a Audiolab8200A amplifier. I was very impressed with the R100's and out of the two I prefered them. To my ears I liked the detail I got from the R100's over the Ls50's. For the price I thought they offered...

    All I want to listen to Jazz FM and LBC mainly & a bit of Talksport but I can only listen to the former online as I don't have a DAB tuner & I don't really want to get one as I am not impressed with the SQ. I can get LBC on my anologue tuner but not on from my freeview box. Is there a simple...

    cartridge for a rega planner 3 with rega rb300

    I am using the Goldring 2100 on the same deck. My range of music is quiet extreme to say the least! & the cart seems to work with everything I throw at it, not literally! Its easy to mount, no Hum & money well spent. I could have gone with the usual suspects but I am glad I never.
