Hello! Im looking to get some new headphones and i think noise cancellation would be nice. Despite 6 individual tweets to AKG, i cant seem to find any place that has the N-60 NC headphones for demo. Can anyone advise on the sounds? i listened to the 451 and the Y50 and was amazed at the...

im also considering the connect amp and the 2020i speakers. im sure this combo would be much better than the play:5? I listened to the play:5 and I wasnt really that impressed tbh

Its a shame but seems like what hifi is just full of adverts now and makes me not really want to pay attention to any of the reviews now. There is a massive ad at the top of the screen which is way bigger than a normal size. also the ones on the side seem a bit much. is what hi fi now a sell...

I thought I would update this thread. SO i ended up keeping the AS500. i was dissapointed with the Roksan but the cyrus was lovely. so detailed and if i had silkj tweeters I would have taken the cyrus. The as500 really is a fantastic amp for the price. No wonder its won so many awards!

Hey just to update this thread I tried the cyrus 6a and the Roksan k2 and althogh the amps sounded a bit better it was not enough for me to part with my cash. Done home demos for a few days. Cyrus was very detailed and lovely and Roksan had good bass but detail was lacking. Of course they...

Hi i cancelled my subscription back in April and I still got charged £25 for another 6 months of mags and deposited sending several emails to hay market they keep sending me the mags which I haven't opened yet. Who do I need I speak to about getting this cancelled and a £25 refund?

Hey i have the 684's in a room 3x 6 approx but I have them on the long wall so I'm even closer to them and I don't feel the are too big for the room. I like my music loud and close to me. I have mine 30cm away from the wall and they sound great. Have you heard the q500? They sound completely...

Hey, Ive had my B and W hooked to an AS500 for about 18 months and it sounds very good. thought I could do better regarding amps so rediced to home demo the roksan and cyrus 6a. All i can say is that the as500 is FANTASTIC considering the price! the cyrus gets very fatiguing to listen to...

Hi i currently have the As500 amp linked to my bowers and wilkins 684. I'm thinking of changing the amplifier and listened to the Cyrus 6a and Roksan K2 connected to tannoy dc6 bookshelfs. The detail in the Cyrus was immense. Really liked it. Then I heard the Roksan and the control on the...

as mentioned above, floor standers would be ideal since they have been designed to hit lower end notes and it should sound a lot better than trying to match bookshelf speakers and a sub (allbeit the sub can get even lower) i would strongly recommend q acoustic 2050i speakers. In my home cinema...

Hey just wondering on what day of the month the new magazine is released? i wanted to start a subscription but ive already bought the magazine for this month (dont know which month it is since we are on like april edition!) thats another thing- why wen its january are the magazines written...

Hey jist wondering how your getting on with your rotel and 684? im looking to upgrade my amp and I haven't heard any auditions yet but thinking rotel 1520,K2 or Cyrus 6a. Its been 18 months and wondering if it still sounds good??

I imagine it would sound good. I have the 2050i and they are fantastic speakers with an AS500 and Yamaha AV amp so with a £600 Cyrus im sure it would make them sound even better. Im actually thinking of a cyrus amp with my Bowers and Wilkins 684. Just now they are powered by an AS500 which...

I dont rate the tannoy v4 speakers at all. in my audition they were out almost instantly! if your budget can stretch to it, the Q Acoustics 2050i are perfect for the as500 and for the muc=sic you want to listen to. the cabinets are big and the bass is fantastic. really powerful and enjoyable...

Apologies. I put down bowers and wilkins 683 when I meant 684 so the first two replies- are they still valid with the 684 spear? also my budget is under £700 so going pre and power separate isn't going to be possible I'm afraid. Looking for an integrated amp
