PM sentSo what British kit did you buy/have?
Hi all. Does anyone know how the later Obelisk 100 stacks up against the shoebox versions?
I’m after an integrated amp and there is an Obelisk 100 available nearby. I used to have a 3x with X-pac, and I wondered how the newer one compares?
Even if not quite as good out of the box I’d consider some mods to improve it, or is it just a better bet to go with a newer Heed version?
I see the sellers also got the matching FMT 1 Tuner. They must be extremely rare, especially in the condition these appear to be in. Seriously tempted myself but my wallet can't stand anymore battering at the moment!Very nice looking Ion Obelisk 3X and X-Pak 1 on the Bay at the moment for £395.
Can someone please buy this before I am tempted!
One of our customers sent us a link to this and we thought we'd share it here just in case anyone wants to take on a real challenge of getting a full active Linn/Nytech/Isobarik PMS system up and running again.

We can service the Nytech stuff and with the help of Falcon Acoustics, the Bariks. Not so sure about the other stuff though anything is possible for those that want it enough
Happy listening and keep safe all!
So did anyone on here buy the Obelisk 3X and X-Pak 1?
Happy it went, it was calling to me!

I was very tempted by this auction but eventually missed the end, someone has now got a peach of a system.
Still seriously tempted, unfortunately the recent purchase of the Quad34/306 plus imminent purchase of LS3/5as has more than offset the money I've made selling other bits of kit.
Sadly my Obelisk 3 appears to have developed a fault, the output is down on the LH channel. Noticed it last weekend but turning it on yesterday it was more obvious. Checked all the usual, connections/swapping cables etc.
Would appreciate it if anyone could explain where to check & how to adjust the bias.
Not having much luck lately, my A&R A60 stopped working last week as well. Haven't got round to investigating that one yet.

Sold for £1300. the speakers must be worth that alone.
As predicted. Broken up into separate lots & listed on eBay. He’s put the speakers up for sale at almost the cost of what he paid for the whole system. And selling the speakers separate from their matching stands. GRRRRWonder when that lot will all appear on eBay?
Bit cynical I know and I certainly hope not, I can count on my fingers the number of EXO’s I’ve seen and I think that was the first one with a Linn PMS board in it, so the amps speakers & x-over deserve to stay together at least.
