| best vintage stereo receiver I have what some people call High End, but was totally shocked by how good a Yamaha receiver, that I bought a couple of years ago, sounds.Its a CR-800 driving a pair of Celestion 5000 Ribbon speakers (also underrated)The sound is smooth and detail... | |
| B&W DM70's - top end lacking Update:I finally put in refurbished energiser units into my DM70’s.I fact I was lucky enough to buy a spare pare of DM70’s for £200 that needed new foams for the bass.The energiser units from these ’new’ speakers have now had all their diodes repl... | |

| B&W DM70's - top end lacking For checking the frequency response I have been using:http://onlinetonegenerator.com/frequency-sweep-generator.htmlandhttp://onlinetonegenerator.com/to generate all the frequencies that I need.I only have a basic sound level meter (£15 from Amazon... | |
| B&W DM70's - top end lacking I may have a go myself with new surrounds if I can sort out the ’pinging’ in one of the bass units.Now I bought a sound level Meter and have been checking the frequency response.There is quite a hump at 112Hz of about 8db.Perhaps I could try adjus... | |

| B&W DM70's - top end lacking Hi Martin Have you changed your drivers over to eliminate the crossover?Have you changed the speakers overs to eliminate the amp outputs? So far I have made no changes to the crossover(s).I only changed the drivers because my original bass units a... | |
| B&W DM70's - top end lacking Just to make it clear, I am not pushing One Thing, but I know of no one else in the UK with DM70 expertise.There is a chap in Germany, but he is expensive.I did see the speaker surrounds being offered as a kit for £35, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/B... | |

| B&W DM70's - top end lacking Hi Martin I have the adapter plate with the EMI bass driver. I have ordered a pair of foams from the Netherlands that were the closest match I could find. I do hope that the foams are the correct size, as most are for 12 inch and not 13 inch sp... | |
| B&W DM70's - top end lacking I suspect that the energiser units needs some caps replacing. dylanthecat:After speaking to One Thing Audio, they suggested that it is normally the diodes in the energiser units that go.They will, of course, do this work for you if you need.The ... | |
| B&W DM70's - top end lacking One pair sounded a bit dull but the other pair had lovely extended treble so it really depends on their condition.I think that either my energiser units need an overhaul of the panels need redoing.First I will get the energiser units serviced and ... | |
| Review: Conrad Johnson PV-9 Tube preamp I have the PV9a and think it just sounds 'right'.The phono stage is excellent and works brilliantly with all the MM's and high output Demon DL160. (Why has Demon stopped this model?)My only comment is that the output is a bit high and I use Rothwe... | |
