Teac Reference 380 Review?

[admin_exported]

Having just picked up the latest copy of what hifi, I was sad to see the new Teac reference getting a very average review. Has anyone heard this system in person? I have not had the chance as yet, but hope to soon. Looking to get a mini system in the next couple of months, and the new reference was topping the list, but no so sure now? ;-) I know Marantz has a new micro system coming soon (The name escapes me, but think its styled on the Arcam Solo min)

Short list so far

Cambridge Audio One

Teac Reference 380??

Arcam Solo Mini (If i can raise the extra cash)

They didn't like it very much, but you might love it. Reviews are personal opinions, after all. See if you can find a local dealer and arrange an audition.

The Cambridge Audio One should be reviewed in the May issue if all goes according to plan. The Marantz (which I think is the CR-502) will be reviewed as soon as Marantz can produce one in the UK spec.

As Tractorboy said, you should try to hear the TEAC if it's convenient. I'd be interested to hear what you think.
