But Audiostore is buying British from a retail POV.
A slight difference in price though.
I bought directly from Uptone too. Arrived 2 days after from US. But later I received a bill from FedEx ( or UPS, donāt remember) to pay 50 euros taxes. Should be the same for you?
Over here Fedex give it to royal mail, and they then charge vat and duty based on cost plus shipping, should be about Ā£100. Still cheaper than audiostore.
Yes, clearly.
But if what you really want is a pair of 505s, then resisting the temptation to fiddle now with a ātuning deviceā and LPS saves Ā£1.5k towards the speakers.
Thatās the first step towards a real transformation in sound quality.
My next speakers would be the end game so are unlikely to be 505s.
Previous forum member J.N. had a pair of Titans from further up the range, but then changed them for the 505s and is very happy (AFAIK) with the 505s, which suit his room better.
Might be worth giving the 505s an auditionā¦?
Maybe more 606?
So fun to spend someone money
Frenchā¦to day I got to try Ethernet Chord signuture instead my own Melco cable going from N10 to Ee switch and itās much betterā¦ Iām getting deeper bass everything sound quieter as one pieceā¦remind you my main Ethernet cable toNd555 is Sarum t ā¦now both cables are Chordā¦expensive but very hard to go backā¦ the only problem Iām not sure I can afford It
I realized now that both Ethernet cables from Melco are imported the same
Strewth! Has Jimās account been hacked ?
Yes, possibly by the Kudos sales team! They know I have a Kudos sickness!
Anyway I digressā¦
Ah yes. Titan cravings. A common and well understood problem
I think you can get lotion for it these daysā¦ā¦
And a cold shower always helps.
Hi Gazza,
If you feel that you will be fully tempted to buy a second ER in the future, like Michael, Midnightrambler, and Steve, better look directly at ps with 2 rails.
Then the Uptone Js2 can save you a bit money, if itās shipped with your ER. Itās a very very good linear ps, highly rated on forums, among the best.
I had one in the past and unfortunately sold it. Sold it 2 years after for 85% of its new cost, because you hardly find it second hand. At that time I didnāt know It would be useful in the future.
If you donāt mind itās silver. ( 1k, with quality dc cables).
Because even with new speakers, youāll hear the effects of cleaning up the network. Maybe even more so! Get the back end down, and then that can transfer invert anything one does with the front end. My opinion.
Thanks FR, interesting bit of kit
And then what music do we play?
It never ends!
PS: Donāt forget Shahinian. Great for jazz!
āProcrastinating towards the end gameā
A possible slogan for the forum??
Please post on how you find the wave stream cables bluesfan as they and m scaler are on my list
