    Nightingale LS3/5A Prototypes

    Malcolm Jones certainly would remember these. Back in the day, Falcon bought up LS3/5A cabinets from the bankrupt RAM speaker company in Norwich. I bought a pair of those cabinets from Falcon and (with Malcolm's guidance) built them up using Focal double-coil 5" mid/bass drivers, Scanspeak...

    Nottingham Analogue Dais

    Actual geometry probably matters very little in terms of what's audible, particularly with a longer tonearm, but if your listening consists of a lot of classical with highly dynamic finales etc, then Stevenson does have some advantages regarding end of side distortion, but at the expense of...

    Ortofon spu.

    Ortofon don't refurbish as such - they replace entire old cartridge generators with new ones. A good service, but you don't get a sympathetically restored classic back, but instead a new cartridge in old clothes.

    Technics announce new SL-1200GR2 & SL-1210GR2 Turntable

    I do prefer the sound of my GR with torque set to 'low' - it just sounds more cultured, natural and unforced compared to higher torque settings. Interestingly, the GR motor has a self-calibration feature and running that seemed (to my ears at least) to improve its sound quality, delivering a...

    Technics announce new SL-1200GR2 & SL-1210GR2 Turntable

    Yes, a clear uplift in resolution and particularly tonal colour and bass depth. I don't sell anything like this, but I use one myself with a GR and the deck sounds very dull and mechanical with its stock PSU.

    Denafrips Arce Streamer

    The name is maybe marketing genius, possibly accidental genius. That aside, I am struggling to see its relevance in the marketplace if it only works with Roon.

    The cartridge looks like an Aidas, certainly not a Lyra. It's entirely possible that the Primary Control arm and cartridge are set up perfectly at this angle.
