    B&W Speaker help with Amp

    Hello again Ashley Apologies for the late reply, I've been rather busy. Here's some pictures of the speakers after my restoration. As you can see, I did some aesthetic changes because I felt the cloth covered tops looked rather dowdy. I did some internet research and came across these special...

    B&W Speaker help with Amp

    Hi Ashley, I bought and fully restored a pair of these exact speakers the year before last.

Those bolts are made...

    Audiophile witch hunt or basic common sense?

    If you're interested you can Google it and get some sort of an explanation. It You probably looked at this, but it might help. Obviously it's for the super talented DJs that do scratching and whatever else they, to enable them to do their thing. (Reference; Wikipedia)

    Greetings! New joiner here

    Great, that sounds interesting, I had to Google "what's a flea powered preamp." I didn't exactly get an answer but I assume it's just a very low powered and simple type of preamp made with a very minimal circuit?

    Where does one post what's spinning on a CD player on the site. Is there such a thread on What Hi-Fi?

    Which standmounts to demo ?

    I really didn't mean to appear offended. That was all tongue in cheek. You mistook my dry sense of humour. Offended? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Absolutely not my friend.

    Which standmounts to demo ?

    Sorry to break it to you, but KEF doesn't "Rule". The King rules and you are one of his many subjects. I know you didn't quite mean it like that , but seriously KEF? How about some of the many other manufacturers of superb speakers. Harbeth, B&W, Tannoy, Wharfedale, JBL, Q Acoustics, PMC, etc...
