I recognise that description only too well!
My dealer has the same, called naughty Iain ??
A good outcome in the end Tim and well done! Enjoy Peter
Thanks Peter. Pete and I have agreed that there is no room for an S1 here but I am very pleased that it seems to be working very well for you, and no doubt with the space and funds I would appreciate one too!
Well well Tim, as we know there is always ‘more’ over the horizon in this mad old game! Enjoy Peter
Great news Tim and as you say hopefully you can get then installed before Christmas.
Thanks, Michael - and thank you also for your comments further up re your 808s. It was good to have some input from people who actually have 808s
It’s very charitable of you Tim to take in an unloved 500 before Christmas and give it a new home…it will reward you with it’s love for music😉
552/500 into 808’s is perfect. No need to go active imo…well done and enjoy your new system over the holidays
all heart, me
Norah Jones sounding rather excellent at the moment
(Not looking forward to having to start at zero hours on the new pair though. First world problems, eh?)
Well done Tim! Walnut too😎
Congratulations Tim, the Titans are a very rewarding pair of speakers. Mine are getting close to two years old now and they are getting better with time so you have more to come
I’d be quite pleased if Iain were a bit naughtier, just occasionally!
Please post some photos when the new walnut 808s arrive. It would be great to see the new full set up.
Will do! I will take some before and after photos, which I think will really show the neatness of the rearranged system.
The left speaker is really too close to the racks now (once they are moved Pete is planning on moving it an inch or so to the left) but the new arrangement will sort that out nicely
Thanks, Nigel
Clive, I actually ordered a NDX2 from Andrew but we were discussing the upgrade route and he suggested a home demo of the 555ps on my original NDX so a home demo was duly arranged.
Iain turned up with the 555ps I thought it rather strange as he brought two boxes into the house. Iain set up the 555ps and we had a listen he then casually mentioned that he also brought a ND555 and would I like to listen to that for a few days well I thought it would be rude not to.
When he collected the units a few days later I had a lift back to the shop and placed an order for a ND555 and 555ps the £6 I saved on the bus fare helped with the purchase !!
Tim, glad you have resolved the issues in positioning the T808s and hope you enjoy your new ones as much as I am enjoying my baby Titans.
A pair of new 808s and possibly a 500 will this put a new slant on the Greenhouse upgrade.
Kew Gardens oopnorth maybe ??
Enjoy.
Nice one, Tim.
Enjoy the new 808s (and 500).
