For the record, the Revolver's are great. Wide 3D soundstage, deep enough bass & sweet mids. Good match for my valve amplifier and able to partner with both rock & classical music. Highly recommended.

The sub can wait for the moment as I have just pushed the button on some Revolver 3s. Although, I favoured the Kilpsch, there just didn't seem to be enough universal love of them and there were some comments about the quality of their build. The Revolvers on the otherhand had great write ups...

I would like some advice please.I have a Fatman 202 Tube Amp Single Ended Class A with 20W Output which is paired with Mission 701 speakers.I have upgraded all of the Chinese Tubes to NOS GE 6550A and WE396 and I am really enjoying the sound but with high volumes and bass guitar, I get the...

Thank you to all for your advice. I have now had a chance to compare the Sony to the Marantz and to listen to the Close to the Edge SACD and a few others that I have now purchased. The Sony seems to be brighter and provide greater clarity than the Marantz which has a deeper warmer sound. Maybe...

Both the SACD player & CTTE are from Amazon UK. I can't help you as regards postage but I think you can go online & check Nigel

I have the the Rhino remastered version, which i think is the Bill Inglot one, and the more recent SHM editions and then saw the newSACD edition that has just been remastered by Audio Fidelity. It is on the back of this release that I have purchased the Sony - making the CD effectively a £170...

Thanks to all for the very helpful replies. I have decided against a universal player as not surprisingly (and as an admitted very general comment) they don't all seem to play CD/SACDs as easily as a CD player - they seem to be issues on start up times, noise, display or even selection of...

Hi Tthanks yo everyone for their comments. I need to keep to £200 or so, as I have just bought a Graham Slee Voyager -:) yesterday. Like the idea of the Arcam 135 but haven't found one yet, and also the Denon, but both seem a little prone to wear & tear issues. I have been looking at reviews...

I sort of knew all of that and my question was about a Player not the SACDs themselves -:) Any advice on players or comments on the Fatman please?

Can I have some advice please. I have seen a new SACD coming out from my favourite band and have decided to buy a SACD player and ditch my unused Marantz SE 52. I have no other SACDs ........ But will now start to buy some. i have a Fatman 202 Valve Amp, which I bought last year and which I...
