    Using single core mains cable for speakers?

    Whether it's system dependant I don't know, but I tried 4ft lengths from mono-blocs to speakers and it was awful, just confused sound, no music. cheers Al

    RIP Neil Burnett Albarry Music amplifiers

    Thank you for your lovely thoughts chaps, I remember the days of Bespoke Audio Stockport, our reference system back then was a Trio L07D direct drive t/table, EMT cartridge hand built by Mr Van den Hul, Trio L07C pre amp, Trio Lo5m Monoblocs and Allison 1 speakers, we thought that was the best...

    RIP Neil Burnett Albarry Music amplifiers

    It feels unreal to be posting this, many of you may own or have owned in the past or maybe heard at HiFi shows the beautifully entertaining music from Albarry amplifiers.

    Sonic benifits of dedicated hi fi equiment isolation tables?

    I heard a demo of an all acrylic ReVo HiFi stand vs a wooden shelved/metal legged table, the chap just lifted the CD player from one stand to the other, same track, same volume, it was a no brainer, by comparison the ReVo just sprung the music into life and the wooden table made the music sound...

    How many watts from your main amplifier?

    My Albarry M1108 Mono-blocs are 110 Watts into 8 Ohms, my speakers are Allison 3 corner speakers, 4 Ohm, IIRC 93db effeiciency, I believe the 1108's are 180 Watts in to 4 Ohms, although they deliver over a Kw on peak delivery, all electronic gobbledygook to me, but they sound fantastic. cheers Al

    To leave on or not to leave on!!!

    My Albarry amps are designed to be left switched on permanently and only use 8 Watts when in "standby mode", but if yours consume more power or you're not sure, then I would say switch off after use, warm up to a listenable level is usually 20-30 minutes tbf. cheers Al

    facebook group

    I didn't want to mention it until I had passed it by TonyL, now it's ok it's just an appreciation group for HiFi enthusiasts than have or have had in the past any products that are hand built by Neil Burnett at Albarry, I think his amps are among the best in the World, but I din't want to...

    Speakers that can work well close to a wall

    I have a pair of Allison 6 cube stand mounted speakers and a pair of Allison 3 corner speakers, Allison's are designed to be within 3" of a wall and are what is known as room coupled, mine are over 30 years old, but they still sound fantastic to me and as far as I am aware there is a pair of 3's...

    Thorens td 124 mk2

    If you put the 124 in a heavy, dense plinth the bass tightens up. IME, I use a Jim Campbell solid ply plinth and it seems to work fine. cheers Al

    Does vinyl drive you nuts?

    I use a Lyra Delos with an Albarry head amp and it sings beautifully, however, it does expose the quality of some recordings, thankfully most are fine, but I do have one or two that sounded ok with a lesser cartridge, but are lacking in involvement now. maybe you are hearing the same quality...
