If you have to nail your speakers to the wall, as I did. Consider B+W CT7.3 (LRCS). Front ported and good value. Maybe a bit bright for some but, the more you turn the up the volume, the better they get. Mine are mounted way up high, 1 meter from the ceiling, (it's complicated)! Not perfect...

My NAD 320bee. It's under my bed, It's not for sale.

Is there a P.T. branch in the South East?

Yes DO buy another DSOTM, on SACD, You won't regret it.

The Marantz SA-10 is metal, I don't have a magnet, but I would not head butt it.

When I purchased said SA-10, it was £4,000 (peter tyson). This is more than my old Merc. I first heard it in Dullwych, when a mate played Animals for me to comment. And before I started to annoy you here.

Is the Marantz SA-10 SACD too pricey to be included? You proberbly know my view on this, but if you don't. It is THE most splendid upgrade, I have ever encountered. Nuff said. IAN.

How did you find out about us 5 policemen, we keep a low profile.

Oh yes, in the future soup will turn into water. Well not if I am a customer. And I'm not alone.

For me, THD is the most important measure, in making an "informed" decision. Am I now being told that it is all "reletive"?

I did not want to start an argument, I respect you all. And I am privileged to talk to you. You know my plan, and I will respond in time, how I am getting along. Who knows, I may be tearing my hair out, and screaming. Or I may tell you, that you should do this too! It's all in the ears, or...

Some people buy high end speakers, with a dozen drivers. That reach from the floor up to the ceiling. And some folk dream of sitting there bombarded by sound, like it was meant to be this way. Now imagine finding space in a small flat with room for bookshelf speakers, one peeping over the T.V...

My speakers are B+W CT7.3 LCRS. They are a little bright. The amp is also a little bright. I really would like some more punch. The medium plan is to power the B+W's with my old NAD 3200 bee. And power the NEAT's with the Yamaha. And run them similtaniously. It is rather complicated, but if you...

Thanks for your input, time is on my side. Your new advice is certainly welcome. I am notorious at planning ahead for every item. In 5 years I will have a tube pre-amp and a pair of ss mono blocks. And I am honestly checking out the waters these days. Like I always say the future is promising, I...

Thank you gentlemen. How about A+B speakers when one pair is 8ohms, and the other is 4 ohms? I'm not trying to wind you up, I really need to know, before I make a purchase. Thanking you. IAN.
