Ha! Just picked up a beautiful pair of AE1s for a smaller room and they are singing - that old adage about the room being the third instrument with your system/ music, so true. They were used a lot in studios in the early 90s, and I think that’s why the AE2s didn’t work there - the timing...

Get some heavy ones - my ae1 stands are 63 cm high and very heavy

If I could, I’d have all my music at radio three broadcast to me and played back via my fm aerial and sweet rogers t100 tuner. Otherwise, I think all the formats are good, if the music is. I am still surprised how much I love vinyl’s widescreen warmth on my gyrodec too.

Brilliant - thanks all so much. I’m getting lots of classical vinyl from an old friend’s estate next week - Tony L’s label guide on the classical page was illuminating and very helpful. What a great resource this site is ☺️

Interesting- I’m thinking about a 1200g later in the year, for system 2. Listened late to the gyrodec last night. The soundstage is so wide and beguiling. Very immersive. What was it like going from that to the technics ? And budget for phono stage - probably under £2K Thanks for all the...

I love Hamelin - his piano rags are so great

I'm thinking of trying a new phono stage - I've had the same naim stage line for 15 years, with hi-cap, fed by my gyro SE. Cartridge is an MC OrtofonBronze Cadenza. Amp is a Moonriver 404 Reference. Any recommendations gratefully received. I seem to be listening to a lot of classical right...

I’ve always wanted to hear the AE2s - my studio friends said it wasn’t as good as AE1s for work, something to do with timing I think, but still…. I’ve got 2 pairs of AE1s, an old pair and a classic pair they reintroduced 10 years (?) or so ago. Sadly with blown drivers from studio work :( But...

I've used them for years in the studio, and now love them at home. I"ve been told you can't get the bass speakers any more tho, sadly.

I've just got a pair, and they sound good ( don't know what the originals were like !) They don't have the Fink Team Kim's resolution ( but at a fraction of the price ), but I think they DO have the Fink DNA, charm and dynamics. Lots of bass and more of a loud ' party ' speaker than my Kims...

I’ve bought another Rotel cd 11 tribute for my second system - it’s a very unobtrusive, pleasing listen. I’m very happy with it.
