DeVore O/babies? Look great, how does the sound compare to your resting 606s?
I have no idea of the 606s’ sound, but it all looks so cozy, elegant and the speakers are so cute that I’d sell the 606s straight away…
A very elegant salon indeed!
Chag -
Looks like “Oberon” to me?
I don’t post very often but read every day.
Some brilliant pictures on this thread, I’ve been mucking about with my home made cabinets and supports inc. speaker plinths since I last posted a pic. Its all in colour but a bit black and white
Yes, I think so. we bought it from a local antiques shop that specialises in Moorcroft.
Your picture made me tempt to explore those speakers. They look fabulous.
Nice Terry! Looks from your profile like you’re running a 72/hc/250. What’s the other olive box?
I would say that they sound even better. I have been to a number of open day sessions at the local dealer where he has had these and the larger O/96s running and they are two of the most impressive speakers I have heard - others have provided similar feedback which is quite impressive since the dealer also runs Wilsons, Focal, PMC, Fyne. See if you can get to take a listen - warning though, if like me, you will find them addictive (still not been able to get a pair though!).
Thank you for your valuable feedback Paul. Much appreciated. I actually checked with the local dealer today after I saw @Marq ’s photo. Unfortunately they haven’t imported some O/baby yet but they are going to do. I’m in no rush since I have my house being redecorated. It should take about 6-9 months. Start saving some funds to listen to them though.
Hi snarfy, the 250 was replaced by 135’s, last year. I’ve wanted that amp system since I first heard similar many years ago but I thought as I’m now an OAP I’d better crack on if I was going to do it. Tried to update my system on my profile but don’t seem to be able to find how to do it.
Just tried to update mine: click on profile logo, then logo again, then preferences, then profile. Hope that this works.
Ta.
Oh yeah, To be fair, that’d take some working out(well, clearly I couldn’t)
I’ve a pair of NAP135s for over thirty years now, which I would never change - they’re long overdue a return to Salisbury for service and recap.
Outstanding. Glad you were able to reach the promised land!
Colnago…nice. Looking at C68 currently but it may be a little too much to spent on a bike, could get a small car for the money…
I dont belive in Zwift, dics brakes, Rapha…but I’m using Trainer Roads in winter for over 10 yrs now…
What about those “old ladies” (the matrix 805) pairing the nait 50, are you still happy with setup, still have it ?
Really curious because as changing my leaving location, i’m also taking the opportunity to think/look about potential change in my current system (Nova/Rega Aura/Rega Rp10/Proac 10s) to something a bit more “root” that can shine and make my vinyl journey more pleasant.
Have currently the following on my demo list to compete my Nova …specifically on vinyl because really good for the streaming part (and not willing to go back to separate for pre/power path i had before 282/250.2) :
- Nait 50
- Naim SN3
- Rega Aetos
- Rega Osiris
As initially though about keeping my Proac 10s, i’m even more curious about your setup because still have 4 Matrix 805 and one 805 HTM im currently using as Home Theater speakers
For the streaming part was also looking on Wattson Audio.
Thx for your inputs
