Well, we are now in
our Residential Hi-Fi Facility and very pleasant it is
too. No more struggling through the traffic and ducking
the Traffic Wardens in St.Albans, our customers park
right outside and watch the Ducks on the pond. So much
more relaxing. And a big thank you to all our old customers
who have taken the trouble to visit us. You are always
welcome.

Albarry - the legend
returns.
Many of you will remember with affection the legendary Albarry mono block power-amps
from back in the 80's. Renowned for their wonderful sound quality and utter reliability,
they were sorely missed when the manufacturer decided to take an extended sabbatical.
Fear not, the newly introduced M608 mono block amps build on the quality of the
previous model, whilst providing a minimum of 60 watts into 8 ohms.
These amps are now on demonstration and have been well received by all who have
had the chance to audition. They are dynamic, tactile, solid and completely fatigue
free and appear unstoppable into even difficult speakers. They are truly superb and will soon be joined by a pre, passive
pre and phono stage.

Harbeth speakers have rapidly established themselves
as our number one best selling speaker. BBC heritage,
superb build and stunning sound make a very persuasive
package and the prices are very reasonable too.
Their latest little miracle is the tiny P3ESR,
a two-way mini monitor with a huge sound guaranteed
to bring a smile to your face. Such is the popularity
of this mighty little box that there is now a short
waiting list but it's worth it. We have all the
domestic Harbeth's including the mighty M40.1 on permanent demonstration.
The very best stands to put your Harbeth speakers
on are made by Something Solid. Hand made to order
from your dimensions, they are constructed from
1/2 inch section steel bar. Unobtrusive and elegant,
they are by far the best speaker stands I know
of. Whatever your speaker, we can have stands made
to suit.

Croft Acoustics are back with
the start of a very exciting new range of tube/hybrid
amplifiers. For those with a long memory, we have
the Micro 25 pre-amp, featuring an excellent MM
phono stage and their trademark dual volume controls.
The hybrid Series 7 power-amp is around 45 watts
with drive aplenty for difficult loads. I was expecting
great things from this combo but they have exceeded
my expectations by being amongst the very best
amps I have used and at £700 apiece, what
more can I add?
Except that Croft now have a Micro Basic pre which
includes a truly excellent MM phono stage all for £400.
Incredible !!! How does he do it ? Why does he
do it ? I've heard many far worse pre's at £2K
and above. The bargain of the decade.
Amazingly, Glenn has introduced 3 new Integrated amps. As you would expect, they sound superb and are exceptionally good value. Contact us for more info. |
