They make a huge sound, hard to imagine they're tiny boxes. I've tried a few other speakers, many from Audio Note, but I just prefer the Larcs. Mike

I've made notes! Thanks to you both. Mike.

Well it's not worked and I'm at a loss to know why. Help please.

Hope this works, I've not posted pics before. Sorry if it fails! https://www.dropbox.com/s/2do90ycscyfbw2l/1-DSCN0007.JPG?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/ck91y6k5p40241y/2-DSCN0009.JPG?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/ayk3rq5i1is20tg/3-DSCN0011.JPG?dl=0...

Anyone heard these speakers or even bought them? They have a very fine review in Hifi Critic at the moment. Mike

Great advice, I'll give it a go. Hope mine's not flat! Using it by the way on an Audio Note TT2, Arm 3 and IQ3.

Planning to use this cleaner again, after being half lost for many years. It's the vibrating one. I've just bought some AT cleaning fluid to go on the vibrating bristles. Does anyone else still use one? Does the stylus just sit on the bristles, or should the brush be pulled along the stylus from...

I thought the two Absolute Sounds "ticketed" rooms sounded fantastic, as they should of course. Wilson Sabrinas at £1500 were excellent, powered by some expensive ARC kit. Magico Q7s powered by Constellation amps in the other. Again very impressive, but maybe a bit sterile for me. A big...

I've been waiting for an announcement at the end of July for how Hifi News subscribers can get their discounted tickets for this years' show. Have I missed it or has nothing been said. Mike

Think I'll try a Rega one first, but a home made jobby sounds quite appealing. I can have a few attempts at getting it round! Is the Rega one for a specific model? I see the one for the 9/10 is different.

I've been trying some different mats on my turntable, an Audio Note TT2, and found a really thin felt mat sounds the best. Trouble is, I think it might have been given away with Practical Hifi in the 70's. It's about 11 inches across and certainly not round. Does anyone know where I might be...

Hi, I've recently bought a TT2 with an Arm3 and IQ3 cartridge. Still giving it fine tune fiddles, but I've become aware I prefer it's sound when using a felt mat. Anyone who has one knows the disc sits on top of a nude plastic platter. Instruments just sound more real and less edgy with a mat...

Oh, PS. Can't say strongly enough about an audition, my love of the Larcs might be someone else's tinnie box. They are not a desktop system for me, they're in a dedicated music room. I can see them being superb with the music you like to listen too. My musical tastes have widened too, I now...

Hi there, I think the Larcs are utterly fabulous. I had an active Naim system, with SL2s, my current set up is hugely better, at a fraction of the cost. I paid £2500 for mine, the price has come down to £2000, which is somewhat annoying. I've heard them against other Shahinian speakers, which...

Hi Bob. I have a pair of Larcs, which I totally love. I've heard some, not all of their bigger models, and although there are aspects of them that are very good, the only speakers I loved of theirs, were the super elves, they'd stopped making them unfortunately. The speakers I had before the...
