speakers

After finally getting my hands on some Neat SX1s, I sadly feel I have to offer my beloved Royd Doublet speakers (TWO pairs) for sale. Both from the mid / late 1990s, one pair (SN 014332) is cherry veneer finish, the other (SN 012988) is black ash. Both come complete with removable plinths and...

Hello, I'm new here. I have a Naim SN2 / NDX, super nice combo. My room is 2.5m x 2.5m I'm struggling to find cables and speakers to pair with them. I'm currently using Chord Epic X and KEF LS50 Metas, and the sound is being distorted at both the upper and lower end. Not good. Every time I...

Hi all, Wondered what speakers people were using with the above combo, or recommendations for what may be a good match? Also interested in peopel's speaker placement recommendations? It's my own space so no restrictions on what I can do. Wahey! I'm running a Rega Planet, the 8000c and 8000p...

Hope you're all well. Thought I would share these Ditton 66 speakers with you. Found in a skip a couple of months ago, laying in rainwater. Miraculously, all the drivers worked but the sides were completely blown. The glue had failed and the wood had swollen in places. No longer being sealed...

Hi I have the kit listed in the title unused and thought I might set it up in the spare room. I need some speakers though. They need to be small, bookshelf size, as they will need to sit on a bookshelf. Definitely no room for stands or floor-standers. I don’t really want to wall-mount them...

Hi all. I have some 40 year old Sony speakers that need their capacitors replacing - as I don't recall them ever having been. I'm quite technically challenged but opened the speakers up and found a blue capacitor in there 2.2uf 50v. It was a blue one with wires coming out of each end. The...

We have a brand new sealed pair of Quadral's great Platinum M40 speakers in high gloss black, they are absolutely brand new and sealed in their boxes. A big wide open encompassing sound, no grain wonderfully articulate and musical and they can do scale!. Easy on the amplifier as well. Quadral...

After 12 months of elapsed time, I've finally finished my first speaker build. There's a bit of woodwork cheating and a few ideas on design that have gone into it. There's no passive crossover as I've designed the crossover using Linn's digital Exaktbox system and therefore the speaker runs...

Hi! After long discussions all over the world I've decided that the best speakers for me would be Focal aria 906. Now i wanted something more high level, but I will be listening on the rack (with isolation of course) and Aria seems the best for this. Now I have some money for a good integrated...

Did anyone see Brian Cox on the Andrew Marr show today (Sunday)? What was the speaker behind his left shoulder, and do they work properly that close to the back wall? Any other recent TV sightings? The programme will be on iplayer for a week if you missed it. Keep well.

The following audio equipment is due in very shortly, images will be posted after I get through photographing this large amount! We originally supplied this system to our customer just over ten years ago, they have now emigrated to sunnier climes so the following items are for sale Focal...

Hi Everyone, I have a Gato Audio 250s integrated amp (bought on this forum). I was wondering if anyone had heard either of their two floor standers? They have a couple of dealers in Scotland but that's a distance for me to travel from Wales. Best wishes, Peter

Anyone recognise these speakers? Thanks, Karl

Question. I am looking at potentially changing my neat motive sx3 for some floorstanders. My current amp is an elex r with a reasonable amount of power (72 Watts into 8 ohm). My current speakers are 86 dB sensitivity and go to a min 5 ohm impedance. The new ones I am looking at (neat ekstra)...

My son is home from college and brought back the system I gave him to use there. This was then borrowed by my younger son for his house party (the first one after they had completed their GCSEs). He put it in what we call our sun room. We decided to keep in there for the next few months and...
