    What is the best speakers my needs, dali,kef,rega,or wharfedale

    The guy doesn’t know what he wants, so why not nudge him toward perhaps the best system his money can buy? He wants bass? I delivered—compact, punchy, small-form-factor bass. The trade-off: minimal legacy connectivity. He wants to drop 2K on speakers paired with a Wimp Pro? Fine, I handed him...

    Hi Fi Dealers in 2026

    Funny enough, I use HiFi Corner and usually speak to the guys in Falkirk. I’ve never actually been into the shop since I live in Suffolk, but they’re generally very helpful and often send things down for me to try out. It’s a similar situation with cycling shops. If I walk into a local bike...

    Room correction- mainly analogue setup

    These days it’s a bit of a rabbit hole I don’t have much interest in anymore, but there’s definitely a lot to learn, and when it’s done right the results can be great. Just keep in mind that more expensive doesn’t automatically mean better. What really matters is how everything works together...

    Room correction- mainly analogue setup

    In my experience with room correction, it’s best thought of as a cherry on top rather than a problem-solver. The improvements tend to be subtle at best. Another thing to consider is that most people have no real way to verify whether the corrections being applied are actually correct. Without...

    Naim Nait 50 Anniversary

    Yeah the price is/was way ahead of inflation, but wages are alot different as well material costs, I dont pretend to know there full costs of manufacture but it does feel that someone in a board room just picked a price from thin air. I think it was little too on the nose, 1400 and I think they...
