Thabks for the extensive speaker list, plenty of reading and research to do there. With a bit of luck I’ll win the Spendor A4’s up for grabs in the WHF competition that’s running the moment!

Well I bit the bullet and opted for the A39 which I picked up yesterday. It's certainly a marked improvement on the A29. The biggest improvement I've seen is the increase in control over the whole sound, bass it more defined, agile, high's are that bit sweeter, and all the elements seem to fit...
