I am interested to know what speakers you like and use.

Yamaha NS1000m's, still going strong.  

Are you sure that's not one of your motorbikes?

I alternate between a pair of Larsen Model 4's on custom plinths and Shahinian Larcs on 24" 4-poster stands. I also still have a pair of trusty Linn Kan2's that get brought out for fun on rare occasions.

Oh, and I should say I have some serious flirtations with Trenner & Friedl Arts and Pharoahs.....

Hmmm, System 1 is active SBL's with a four pack of 135s.  System 2 I alternate between Neat Elite SEs and rebuilt Quad ESL 57s driven by a 250-2.  System 3 is PMC LB1s driven by a Unitiqute.

Totem Sttafs. A constant in my system from the get-go. Various Totem speaker users here - they work great with Naim - but I may be the lone Sttaf-er?

Kudos Super 10 in oak with 172/200.

Naim and Kudos - a perfekt match...

They are awesome speakers! Extremely well regarded and highly sought after in the US, Japan and Asia (and Australia too)

I love the Sttafs and would have bought them if 2nd  hand Ovator 400s hadn't turned up. The Sttafs bass response and articulation are stunning for a speaker their size and price. Did you put lead shot in the base?

I know there are many good speakers out there but I would be curious to know whether anyone had owned or listened to Fostex G1003MG? They are reported to be fast, precise and very well timbered in particular for classical music.

A beautiful pair of Wilson Benesch ACT 6 SEs. Wow!

And then supplemented after a year with a Wilson Benesch Torus Infrasonic Generator. Double Wow!

Now if i was going to use a sub, that's the one that would be top of my shortlist to audition. Do you have plans for a second one?

I have no plans for a second Torus. Aside from the financial strain, for my listening space, one is enough! I can only recommend a demo. It is so subtle and yet unmistakably present in the overall sound image.

Kind regards

Just got some stands for my Elacs

 

My choice was for PMC 20 21 but after a thorough test with other bookshelf speakers like Sonus Faber 2.0 Harbeth P3ESR, Totem Rainmaker including the ELAC BS 403, I was particularly struck by the amazing quality of BS 263.

I had never heard ELAC, was an extraordinary surprise
