They say ….. Like the S Series, which launched in 2015 to widespread acclaim, the new range combines advanced Kevlar-coned bass and midrange drivers with a specially designed ribbon tweeter. The Z Series takes this fundamental design to a whole new level, however, re-engineering the drive units, crossovers and cabinets to provide the perfect bridge […]
I have recently acquired a Meridian home theatre system as a result of a house move. I’m more into audio than movies so thinking of replacing this with a Naim-centric system making use of my existing UnitiServe. The main stereo speakers are DSP5500s which although having a tremendous sense of power and control are a […]
I’m looking for an tube integrated amp to drive a pair of Compact 7ES-3 speakers. These are both on my short list. Has anyone tried either of them with Harbeths – any thoughts at all? Dip in and out HERE
“Scuse my ignorance, but given the fact that Hi Fi is all about gains and losses in an endless spiral of compromises and ‘more of this means less of that’, can the Wam-gurus please explain what the benefits of low-sensitivity speakers are over high-sensitivity models? The benefits of high sensitivity over low is obvious, […]
Meyer Lansky writes … I have been reading an interesting article regarding integrating bass with horn loaded speakers. www.6moons.com/industryfeatures/grandecastine/1.html ( i know its 6 moons – but sometimes in a pile of xxxx is a nugget!) Where for the sub 50Hz content a planar dipole system was utilised. Nothing new you may say – the […]
“After 9 years with my Proac Response 3s, I recently decided to change speakers. As you can tell, I’m not an upgrade fever patient. I want something I can live with for years & I think the best advice I’m gonna get will be from those who have & are still living with their speakers […]

From their User Group: We’ve all been tempted. The idea of saving a few pounds by buying something from someone/somewhere that we know shouldn’t be selling it. But, be warned – there are serious repercussions which could turn the idea into a nightmare. Do not purchase Harbeth speakers without serial numbers! Please read this carefully: […]

“I am giving serious thought to changing my little ATC SCM7s for something with a bit more scale having moved into a house with a much larger listening space than in the old one. Various comments and threads on here have got me interested in the gentleman’s speaker choice; Tannoy. How pronounced are the sonic […]
Ok, so there I am minding my own business browsing the fresh listings on eBay as usual, then BANG! I’ve bought a radiogram for 130 of my finest UK pounds. That was five days ago, I’ve spent the time since then thinking ‘no, they can’t be can they… I mean it’s worth the asking price […]
Ever wonder why speaker manufacturers don’t list distortion as one of their measured parameters? Me too. To my knowledge, there’s not even a standard by which to suggest acceptable distortion.
