Well remember the monthly trip to get the hifi bible HFA in WH Smiths as a school kid. By 14 I had a decent rig RD80/A75/HB2, for my 18th and for getting into Uni I was taken to a dealer in Leeds to get the holy grail, an LP12. I listened to LP12/Nait/Kans, the dealer was an arrogant arse and it sounded horrible. Off to another dealer to carry out plan B - Meridian Pro CD, perfect sound forever, it was awful, same dealer suggested we hear a PT/Magnum/ProAc system, sounded ace, couldn’t afford the lot but traded the RD80 for the PT then and there, later on went back to hear Magnum vs 8000A, traded the A75 for the Magnum. Few years later got the ProAc Studio.
Funny, I used to have Magnum amps with ProAc speakers - a great combination
