Pity there are only three line inputs and no record inputs. have to use one input for turntable as no MC input. CD player works ok with the built in DAC but have to use my 28 year old Meridian DAC with our DVD recorders as the optical input picks up interference, sounds like the disk rotating.

Finally he suggested the above phono amp but also the power box. After a few months of trial and error and research by Vaughan we had a system that more than delivered the sound I was looking for. My system is modest compared to a lot of others however it gives me the sound I want and my recently purchased Project X8 Evo Turntables and Audiolab 9000 intergrated amplifier really hum. I'm not only hearing a lot of detail but a fantastic soundstage, The best way I can descibe it is I'm not only hearing the music but the instruments playing the music a real presence in my living room. Again the customer service is second to none, I've been dealing with The Audio-Tailor for well over 10 years and have never regretted a purchase.

As I read in a review elsewhere: their sound is big, bold and open, especially in the highs - but they are also refined and capable of subtlety. They also present a wide and deep sound stage, even in my less than ideal living room. After a short run-in period, they have even started impressing me with the level of bass, although bass isn't their strong point. After living with them for a couple of weeks now, they are still impressing me more every day and bringing a smile to my face. If your current speakers aren't exciting you, or you are looking for a speaker small in size but with a big sound, give these a listen. They will be best paired with good quality amplification (with a decent power output) and source components to achieve their full potential, however.
