    PMC... are they that good?

    Been demoing quite a few speakers recently and took time out to listen to the Spendor a7, so highly rated by what hifi, using a Naim Unity Nova and a Hagel H400 as the source - swapped the kit around a bit - and found the top end on the Spendor to be out of control on some tracks, for example...

    PMC... are they that good?

    Recently demoed some PMC Twenty5 23i - £4.5k and thought they were awful, listening to them against the new Prodigy 5 at £2k there was less detail, but they were far more listenable. Both were absolutely blown out of the water by the Neat Mystique Classic at £2.4k - literally half the price of...

    Cyrus Speaker pairings

    Thanks for all the input, I was looking at B&W again and some good prices on older models, but would def want to audition, eg: https://petertyson.co.uk/bowers-wilkins-704-s2-floorstanding-speakers?SGS&gclid=CjwKCAiA3pugBhAwEiwAWFzwdbFjsjb1-8RV83svpTTN-dm7oin-NeTEMPwXgsw-AIJHKRu8_B2bQxoCJDsQAvD_BwE

    Cyrus Speaker pairings

    Never really got on with them, seem a bit light in the bass, replaced a set of B&W DM603s with them and it's just never been the sound I wanted. They were a £1k speaker back in the day, but there just seemed something lacking overall. Just never enjoyed the sound as much as the B&Ws.

    NAS where to start..?

    Hi, I'm looking to get a NAS device (current thinking is a Synology DS214play) to store all my music on (which is mainly stored in 320kb MP3) and is accessed/indexed via itunes on my PC currently, so I need to migrate the library onto the NAS - but I've got that covered. So next step is to be...
