| What are the top 3 dream speakers you wanna buy next regardless of price? I really wanted the tannoy Arden Legacy and then I went and got them ...... organic music I wanted ..... makes me hanker for Westminsters but would need the stately home to match them properly. | |
| Who makes great active preamps ? Tube or solid state or hybrid. Relatively cheap compared to most mentioned CROFT 25R .... Valve input MOSFET out | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in +1 croft pre ..... I had one madewith single volume pot .... but no remote just deliscious sound rich | |
| Monitor Speaker pairing for Leben 300 I have falcon LS3/5a speakers which are 15ohm - impedance works differently on valve amps..... I also used it / Tested it in my main rig with Tannoy Legacy Ardens (15 inch dual drive 93db and 8ohms) and it was nearly as good as my croft ATC combo. | |
| OMG OMG OMG Harbeth M30.1 INCOMING!!!A Few Questions For Owners If using power Quad QSP is a great budget choice - runs a power for 30w then AB up to 140 in current dumping goodness ..... only just bettered by ATC P1 for a splash (pool) more cash. 30.1 deffo need a bit more power I wouldn’t go less than 70w fr... | |
| Tannoy Legacy Ardens - which amp suggestions for 15 big ass babies Thanks for response - I’m actually running VdH 352 cables at moment and a croft 7r is tempting .... might have to see if I can get one on demo. Will wait for break in and then do some interconnect swapping to see what changes happen ..... rich | |

| When do you turn off the tubes? Same as most - off when done and 20min before to warm up ...... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like This was an interesting review .... despite having separate pre and power in main system - this review made me lust after simpler things. Speakers / integrated / streamer / deckhttp://www.stevehuffphoto.com/2018/11/25/hi-fi-review-luxman-590-axii-... | |
| People That Have Upgraded From Harbeth 30.1s.... Just replaced with Tannoy Legacy Ardens - well when I say replaced I should say I just ordered the tannoy so Harbeth 30.1s May just move to second system (but then what about falcon ls3??? ..... dang) | |
| Any experience with Tannoy loudspeakers? I just ordered the new legacy tannoy Ardens...... can’t wait. Have a 3 week holiday coming up so will leave them playing when I’m away- few hundred hours should do it. |
