Audiolab 6000CDT replacing skipping CD5Si. Brand new, under £300 and a great sound through ND5XS2!

Another Piega owner, yepee

I was thinking of buying the 9000 CDT but in the end I may just move over 100% to streaming and rip all my CDs. It’s a shame that the ND5 XS2 is not possible to upgrade with an XPS2 like the ND5 XS. I wonder why that is not the case

Piega are so underrepresented ( is that a word?) in UK but the Premium 701s with their wonderful ribbon tweeter and extruded aluminium housing are superb.

I fell in love with a pair of Coax 611 earlier this year.

Not much changes in my second home system (yet…), but since my youngest daughter will get her own apartment soon and expressed a need for a “System” I got her a pair of Spendor classic 3/1 and a Moon ACE, I felt the need to compare the Spendors with my Harbeth 30.2 (sorry for long sentence).

Spendor cheaper and smaller. Harbeth a bit more bass and better slightly better tone. Spendor more drive and detail on modern material. Conclusion: the Harbeth stays but my daughter will be very happy!

Has also bought a Ramar Record brush. A must for pampered vinyl connoisseurs.

Two times Rel T5/x running off of two times HiCap DR’s are definitely under strong consideration at the moment.
One Rel T5/x is a minimum certainty, but conversations around the pair will be high on the agenda when Tony (Basically Sound) gets back from holiday.
Maybe a third HiCap DR for my wife’s system will see the job done barring Carts etc as necessary :wink:

Thank you. That and folding table are now 37 years old!!! Unlikely to ever get rid of them.
