For some reason, David's (of FrankHarvey) post was deleted together with my triple post. David, I would appreciate if you could post again your comment. Any suggestions on AR Reference 2? Or larger Spendors (A9) or even classic Spendors (SP1/2R2) ? Thxs, postup

Sorry guys. This seems to have slipped away, somehow *********** Hello. Just acquired the set new at a price I could not allow to pass. Demoed them with B&W 802D, way beyond my budget. Presently the speakers are AE 109E which will go to my study. Budget 2000-2500 GBP (max 3000 for something...

Thanks, Thaiman, Mitch: I discovered KW 250s while auditioning a Yamaha set-up (A/CD 1000 + Soavo 3); recently started auditioning equipment in the Uniti price range (one or several boxes). My interest in KW250s came after listenting recently to MF A1008/power supply + CD1008 (alternated with...

Recently was offered by MF dealer (1 year old ex-demo, full warranty) this incredible all-in-one (250 wpc, CD, etc, DAC, tuner). Looks like Uniti on steroids, fewer bells and whistles though. Fills all the needs and then some. Pricewise, it is approx. 3200 pounds (new was around 6000 pounds)...

Check Audio Affair http://www.audioaffair.co.uk/index.php?searchStr=audiolab&restrictCat=&act=viewCat Been interested in this myself, especially CD-preamp + stereo power amp. Waiting to see prices and demo locally. postup

On several occassions participants mentioned a possibility of upgrading Naim Unity, either by bi-amping and/or adding Naim power supplies. As Naim is now locally slightly more expensive than in UK (as well as Spendor, Proac, PMC and Neat) and meets most of my requirements: What would be the max...

Thanks for your suggestions. Checked ebay, nice deals are UK only, S/H from EU countries often comes more expensive than new in Croatia , and much higher than new in UK ... S/H in UK are quite similar to special offers on new items ...... Tempted to take the "standard" route, i.e...

Hi everybody: Recently saw good deals on above combo (http://www.audioaffair.co.uk/index.php?searchStr=audiolab&restrictCat=&act=viewCat) approx. 860 GBP. Local dealer also has some competitive offers on Audiolabs. Those should drive my present speakers (AE 109) well for some time and be a...

Hi d_a_n, just for curiosity's sake, what was your amplification and CD while you had them 109s? What would be your preferences today, if you stll had them, but needed amp/CD? Some time I posted here asking advice on CD/amp for 10 year-old AE 109s, got some useful replies, but still have't...

Hello TRC! Just posted the same thread locally, and the first reply posted proposed - 2nd hand McIntosh MA6500 amplifier, some 2600 GBP + Rega Apollo. To further the coincidence, that guy most certainly comes from the area you visited in 2005 (the beautiful south of Croatia) ... So far I was...

Thanks TRC; only the 800's series, not the 8000's... Unfortunately, shopping for HiFi in Scotland is a not an option (for the time being), I'l have to chose from those available over here (macintosh is similarly priced here, though). Postup.

Thanks one-off. There is an ex-demo Electrocompaniet PI-2 for approx. 1,400 GBP, full warranty, through a local Electrocompaniet dealer. Would you consider it a good deal? Rega is available over here, however, at a serious mark-up above UK prices (Saturn will retail for 1,500 GBP + ...

ANYBODY? AE 109 onwers, HELP!!! You of all will know how difficult it is to carry those around (as retailers over here are not keen on lending kit for home demo). From previous threads on this forum, AE 109s are described ad warm, good midrange (too) powerful bass ... Does it mean that the...

Thanks Tony. You confirmed my idea that it was the amp ....... The speakers are in good condition, I would keep them. Could you, or anybody else, suggest good CDP/amp combo that would match AEs nicely and be a good source for later speaker upgrade (as I said, Spendor, Proac, PMC, in the 1.000...
