Hi, I have Rega Brio-R, Rega RP6/Exact and Dynaudio X12 speakers. Currently hooked up with chord carnival speaker cable. Would I hear much improvement in quality upgrading to QED XT40, Vandenhul or Audioquest etc? Thanks Gary

After much auditioning I went for Dynaudio Excite X12's which sound great with my Rega combo. However, these have been superseded by the X14's which don't sound as nice in my opinion.

Just back from Record Fair with: Bob Dylan - Slow Train Coming (didn't realise Mark Knopfler plays on this) & Mott The Hooples Greatest Hits

Just received The Smiths ''How Soon is Now'' 12'' single.

Hi This might be worth a try. Hum can be generated from ground loops causes by different components connected to different supply sources (or electrical circuits). Are all your components and equipment connected to the same electrical power circuit and hence the same common earth/ground...

Thanks for the responses. Yeah, problem is they have been superseded by the X14's which IMO don't sound as good. Dynaudio stockist don't seem to have any X12's left.

Hi Does anyone know where I could pick these up in the UK? thanks Gary

I recently heard the DM 2/6, DM 2/7's and X12's with Rega Brio-R. If you want a bit more bass I would suggest the DM2/7's. They sounded very good. My personal favourite however was the X12's.

Just bought the Rega Brio-R, Next purchase will soon be the RP3 TT. Looking for recomendations on interconnects? Thanks.

Listened to: Rega Brio-R, Rega Apollo CDP, Rega RP3 TT with the following speakers: Monitor Audio RX1, Dynaudio DM2/6, Dynaudio DM2/7, Dynaudio Excite X12 My opinion is:MA RX1's, which I have listened to before, are agreat speaker for the price, but sound is a bit loose compared to the...

or buy 'kiln dried' sand from Wickes and bypass this stage.

Running the power cables in a steel conduit or similar will help.

I have the same size room as you, and currently deciding between Monitor Audio RX1's or Dynaudio's DM 2/6, which I recently demo'd along with a few others (CM1's, KEFQ300, BW685). IMO the Dynaudio's stand out, but I'm unsure whether my Marantz PM6003 will get the best out of them, so I may opt...

Any advice on this one? Thanks
