Thanks for the response all, It's not really about space but more about budget, in the past I've had a Denon PMA-250SE with Denon CD, DAC Magic 100 and B&W DM601's but had to sell them when I moved in with my girlfriend but we've cleared the spare room and made it into a listening room (and...

Hi All, I’m looking to get a cheap setup (amp and speakers) for my spare room, it’s not that big and have a budget of around £250. I’ve been looking on eBay and wondered if anyone could recommend something, I like the look of the Marantz PM6005 as I need an amp with optical input as I’ll be...

Hi All, I have a set of Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro's (80 ohm) but need a DAC/Amp, problem being I don't want loads of adaptors to make it work with my iPhone & iPad, the only iOS compatable DAC's I've seen are the TEAC & OPPO. I've got a budget of £100-150, are there any good options in that price...

Got a bargain from Richer Sounds, they have MKI Roth's for £99 so went for those, cheers for the replies anyway all :p

Hi all, I'm looking for some bluetooth speakers and I'm struggling to make a decision, basically the three I'm looking at are the Roth OLI POWA 5 MKii, Audio Pro Addon T8 and the Ruark MR1 (at a push), really I'm looking at around £200, the thing I like about the Roth's is the amount of imputs...

Well I got a Cambridge Audio A5 for £36.99, it's boxed and like new so I'll have a listen tomorrow and see if it's any improvement over the Denon, if not I'll get rid, for £36.99 I couldn't turn it down :clap:

Oh I like the sound of that, there is one on eBay at the moment, there is also a Cambridge Audio A5 going for £30 and it's only 15 miles away, worth a look?

Anyone? They only have an hour left on bidding so could do with a reply :(

I'd go for a set of B&W DM601's, I've had two pair (when they first came out and 2nd hand pair last year), you can get them off ebay for about £60-70, you can pick up some good amps for around £100 on eBay and then get a DAC for around £130

I've seen people sugesting the NAD C320 BEE in the past, would they be worth looking at, what sort of sound so they give?

I play music from my Macbook Pro (Spotify & iTunes), I've had an Airport Express connected to my Denon amp for 18 months or so but wasn't happy with the sound so I bought a Cambridge Audio Dacmagic 100 (£199) on Friday which is connected to my Macbook Pro via USB and it sounds a hell of a lot...

Hi All, I've found a pair of these quite local, has anyone heard these in action, wondered if they're any good? Thanks Paul

Hi all, I bought a cheap setup to get back into hifi last year, i currently have a Denon PMA-250SE amp, B&W DM601, Chord Carnival Silverscreen cable and Cambridge Audio Dacmagic 100 DAC and steaming via USB from my MacBook Pro, I like the sound but sometime it can be a little harsh and bright...

Where can you buy 192/24 & 96/24 music from apart from hdtracks.com as they only seem to have weird music I've never heard of before?

Oh cool, so I don't need a DAC with USB just optical out from my Macbook to toslink into the DAC and RCA from DAC to Amp (as I haven't got a toslink on my amp)? I've only got about £100 for a DAC so I've been looking at the CYP AU-D150
