Hi all, the Kirishima are mine, and yea they are monoliths! I use them with my 10 watt amp, and that is plenty. Probably going to pack them away tomorrow if no keen interest. Would also swap for other hifi stuff. But you would need a v large estate or small van to transport.

Hi, I don't have a passive pre, but could knock up a short plug/wire to test, yes?

Hi, I have a Croft series 5c power amp that has a low level hum in left channel only. Removed everything else from the chain, pre amp etc. With only the power amp and speakers connected, turn on power amp, wait 10 seconds, and in comes the hum. I have swapped all valves, even buying 4 new...

Perfect thanks.

Hi, I have a sumiko premier mmt arm with the stock headshell. I have another cart coming and would like to buy another headshell. Apart from the obvious, will pretty much any headshell fit the arm. I don't want to spend a fortune (genuine sumikos or jelcos are quite pricey) So can I use a...
