    Wall mounted speakers/supports for CR603

    Thanks for the suggestion :) . These were one set of speakers I had looked at. Given my budget is around £100 more though, I would also be interested in others too.

    Wall mounted speakers/supports for CR603

    Hi, I am planning on buying a Marantz CR603 for my kitcken/dining area since I spend an awful lot of time in there :) Due to lack of space, the speakers will need to be wall mounted at one end of the room. Can anyone recommend a suitable set of speakers for wall-mounting and supports for...

    Thanks for all your advice. I think I'll try and audition the Audiolab before I buy one. I like the sound of the Harman Kardon HD990 player too, although that's going to be difficult to audition given it seem to be stocked by many hi-fi retailers! I think I'll be putting some money aside to...

    Alternatives to the Arcam wireless rdac

    Alternatives to the Arcam wireless rdac

    Thanks for the interesting suggestion, i assume this means you connect the airport express to the dac via usb. Is this correct? If this is the case, I guess you can use the airport express to connect to any dac with a usb input?

    Alternatives to the Arcam wireless rdac

    I have a budget system I bought 20 years ago. I'm looking to get a wireless DAC to stream music from my ipod. I listen to the radio, iplayer and music through this. I'm also planning on subscribing to something like spotify too. The Arcam wireless rdac (with rwand for the ipod) seems ideal for...
