Astonishingly Good System

Thought you would all like to see Nick's system he had in use at the weekend just gone's Whittlebury show. I have to say it was the best hotel room sound I have ever heard. The room was treated and it sounded gob smackingly good. Hope others who went in agree! http://i622.photobucket.com/albums/tt30...

Re: Apple Music

I hate apple, this is another load of nonsense, no mention of sound quality is there? At least Tidal state CD quality.

To existing Apple fans its a no brainer if you like i-tunes and crappy sound quality, I prefer TIDAL and Spotify.

Valve Dampening Rings

I now have extensive stocks of these valve dampening rings to suit almost every valve going. If you have no measuring tackle and fancy trying some just consult this rather excellent valve database to get the outside diameter of your valves. http://tubedata.milbert.com/ Let me know the sizes or valve...

The No. 101 uses a 4" driver, 4" is 101mm (well actually 101.6mm but hey)

The No. 127 uses a 5" driver, 5" is 127mm

The last in the range is 6.5" driver (I hope) which is 165mm or (thereabouts)

Most of the things I sell under my own brand are numbered (well mains leads and other cables are) like the No.5 mains lead. Its fairly easy to guess where 127 came from if you can multiply without a calculator? :D

Credit where it's due!

Well its been a while, from the very first time I sat in Colins lounge and after 30 seconds of listening to the Edingdales I bought a pair. Fast forward a year or so and I asked Colin and Scott to design me 3 speakers for selling as my own brand, with input from Mr Gorham as well we ended up with th...
