I have Mk.1 Obelisks and don’t think a sugden is going to cut it to be honest. I was pondering something like this: https://pinkfishmedia.net/forum/threads/gamut-di150-integrated-amp-%C2%A33450.256792/

Just to add a little to my earlier post regarding the LS80s; these cables continued to impress as the system settled down. The cables had the effect of making the amp seem to be more powerful, delivering more poise and control to the speakers. The LS80s released more detail from the music...

Will add some further thoughts on the LS80s tonight. It strikes me I need to be posting these cracking cables on to the next lucky PFM-er. @ABCaudio who is next?

This is sad news- i’ve loved his work and Pentimento vols 1 & 2 released in the last few years were absolutely intoxicating

I’ve moved from a serviced HX75 (100w) to an unserviced HX1.2 (mk.I) after years if Naim power anp ownership. both Dynavectors are great amps…. HX1.2 I found to be slightly less warm than the HX75 but adds more control, depth and transparency. Neither seems particularly finicky to set up and...

LS80s arrived with me this afternoon in super-quick time. The system has been powered down for a couple of days due to thunderstorms on the south coast so its still coming on song. Great packaging with a quality feel, chunky cables, perhaps 25mm across. Z-plugs a very tight fit and the thicker...

Great stuff Alan and Colin, thanks for doing this- looking forward to trying the LS80 and would love to give theM50 and MCS-5 a go

Roksan Xercheese?

You are in for a treat! Letus know how you get on

Never seen this before... looks interesting, anyone know anything else about it? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284236734249?mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5338728743&toolid=20001&mkevt=1

When i was more of a regular Richer Sounds and cash converter sort of customer i did find going into Audio T rather intimidating- this was more to do with it being my first encounter with mid to high end systems and prices! now i am older and have a little more disposable income, despite the...

Looks great - no idea on the mixing desk thingy. Turntable perhaps needs levelling a tad

‘Live at Ronnie Scotts’is relatively recent LP reissue and terrific

Thanks @ABCaudio, helpful info and understand your position re risk! As I posted previously about the 40s these are phenomenal cables so not my intention to damn with faint praise but, given the uplift in performance they give to try and decide which EWA to go for!

@CliffB and @ex brickie thanks for your write ups and comparisons between the 40 and the 80. My experience with the LS40 was extremely positive but i felt i lost out only a little to my current cable (WH Phantoms) in terms of openness, possibly because the overall balance of my system enhanced...
