    Aftermarket/audiophile power cables. Surely they make a difference??

    Next someone will be telling me that they used one to boil there kettle and there cuppa tasted better, I say each to their own, its your money and if it works for you all well and good, its not for me, simplez :)

    KEF LS50, Monitor Audio Silver 8, Tannoy XT6F

    Does not always work like that, if only, in theory the tannoys should work ok against the wall, but there are still so many variables within the room, and same can be said for your hifi equipment too, this is why i never recommend anything other that a demo, followed by a home demo, i have had...

    KEF LS50, Monitor Audio Silver 8, Tannoy XT6F

    Thats not the speaker, thats the effects of poor positioning and/or the dynamics of the room, that's why home demo is essential with speakers, ;)

    Dynaudio emit 20 vs Excite 18

    LOL, save your money, and dont waste it on fairytales, £175 on a power lead will do nothing for your system one way or the other

    Chord Speaker Cable: Factory Termination Worth It?

    And this is why i thank my lucky stars that i cant hear a difference from one bannana plugs to the other, and is quite happy to use Fisual Easy Fix Banana Plugs (Pack Of 4) @£4.99 a go, does the job, cant see them once the are plugged in, so who care what the look like, :)

    How to switch between USB 1 and 2?

    You may need a firmware update to make this work, you need to go to the cambrige website and fill the request form out if thats the case. https://techsupport.cambridgeaudio.com/hc/en-us

    Will a DAC help improve my set up?

    I would say if you can get a loan or demo it would be worth a try, there will be a difference, how much i cant say, for better or worse cant say, but dont dismiss it without trying, worth spending more if you can, maybe buy online as you have 14 days to send it back if you don’t like, or if...

    Power amp for Audiolab 8200CDQ

    Do you mean the 8200P (stereo power amp) as opposed to 8200M (mono power amp) which mean you will need two? either way given the power of the K2 i dont really see much to gain, or if you would indeed notice much difference, sure might be a different nature to the sound, but for better or worse...

    Tannoy Revolution DC6T Floor standing Speakers £175 or save for xt 6f

    Had these in the SE variant, great value, great sound and build, and a third of the price of the XT6F’s (£600) but maybe get a demo of them both before you buy, just to be sure

    What is good hi fi for you

    Yes there is, and it did not cost you anything, they are called ears, and they are your only true bench mark, or reference to sound, so what makes good hifi? its your ears, it will either sound good to you or it wont, and opinions count for nothing, if you cant hear it yourself, it personal, its...

    Bass better on the Q acoustics 2000 ?

    Well i would suggest changing then for some Dali Zenors 3's, great speaker for the money, bigger woofer which is easier drive, and will provide excellent bass at lower volumes, as much as i love the Q Acoustics, smaller surface area requires more power, and thats why they sound better when you...
