Thanks Pete... I got here ;) They sound better and better everyday.. even more so now we've decorated, lol! Really enjoying listening to all my old music and some new.. With the Oppo I can now play SACD and I have to say it sounds awesome... shame it's where it is. Gonna have to make a...

I'm beginning to realise that.. Just bought a clearance Denon RCD-M38 for the bedroom and returned my Wharfedale Force 2080's to service..

Sorry I've been off task for a couple of weeks.. I finally made decisions and spent cash .. Whilst rereading this I realise that PistolPete had his demo day at HIFIX, where I ended up one sunny Tuesday a couple of weeks back. Great store, really great - everything I was wanting under one...

Thanks Mediavanman,do you own the SR7007? I think I may be convincing myself into having a third zone, can't afford the 7007 though.. refurb 7005 maybe. I wish the denon AVR 3312/13 had multichannel audio input! Having a medium sized lounge I need bigger speakers for the front than the A10...

Thanks Pete. You are right they only had one set of cables.. I found your review very interesting and it has lead me to seek more info on the KEF Q range. I've spent some time today reading up on the range and am now even more resolute on giving the pair another listen. I had a visit from my...

We actually had an issue with that knob on the listen, the tweeter wasn't working on one of the pair to start with. I will be asking for some bi amping as I plan to bi amp at home. As to detail, I crave it! We almost moved my studio monitors into the living room during our session, time ran...

Thanks Kaledi it looks likely to be the 6007 now as my budget is being eaten by more expensive speakers ;) It's good to hear the 7005 sounds as good though.. I could still find a refurb. Pistolpete it was completely unexpected. I used Kef reference speakers in a studio environment in the...

Oops .. you're right that was the price of the gloss, however I heard a rumour they were going to go up ;) Who know's if it's true or not. I'm going to include Tannoy DC6T's in my third round too...

I'm in the same boat! I'm heading towards a Marantz AV however.. or possibly Denon. I have auditioned both sets the 2050i's and the bx5's.. They both have an expansive soundstage and good depth of tone. I would say the MA's had a clearer top end with more clarity in the lower mid, definately...

Thanks Kingston, that's another vote for Marantz and B&W... I tried to audition some 684's last week but the store was out of stock.. Instead I listened to Kef Q500 and the fabulous yet small Monitor Audio BX5's. The BX5's sounded great, nice big soundstage with a tighter midrange compared to...

Thanks Keith, that's good to hear.. and you're right.... A wholly handsome swine indeed. I'm glad you say it's you rate it's stereo performance, that's where my current system is woefully inadequate. I loaned a PM6004 last night to compare with my Onkyo and get a feel fo the Marantz sound in...

Any users of the above receiver? What are they like? What speakers are you using...
