Roll up, roll up... your entries for Fantasy Group Test are now being taken.

I don't think that's a direct formal comparison we've done. But I'll put it to the review crew for consideration.

It's certainly something we'll be doing as part of Awards judging.....

Ok how about Leema and Bryston.I have listened to both and i can't decide between them.I tried £2500 bryston bcd1,£3000 b100 sst,£1800 pro-ac D15 against £2500 Leema antila,£3000 tucana,£2200 wilson sq two's.I have done the listening i like them both but cant decide can you at least tell me if it was your choice which kit will you choose.And will the Cyrus 8se be a good match with tucana or bryston.
And lastly which cd player has better sound.

Personally, I think you should listen some more as it's your ears, heart and mind ultimately which should be deciding. The team can only recommend rather than decide for you IMHO.......

Nice budget by the way.

Sorry, but you have to decide - we haven't done that Group Test yet, and simply don't pre-judge outcomes!

What I would do, if I was in your position, is also listen to the Plinius CD-101 (£3000), which IMHO is at least the equal of the Leema. I can't wait to hear those two player up against the Cyrus and Bryston.

It's going to be really hard to compare all of them.

 

[Andrew Everard]

But if I was spending that much on a CD player, I'd try to listen to everything in contention, not just buy something on a magazine's say-so.
