As with the Planar 6 and Planar 8 models, the 10 is a serious step up in performance over the model it replaces<br />
<br />
Our 10 is also fitted with the new Apheta3 cartridge. This is not a replacement for the Apheta2, but an new model. The 3 used the 'running gear' of the 2 but has a much better tip profile<br />
<br />
If you would like a demonstration, give us a call ..... but be warned! :-)<br />

We heard these first at the Bristol Hifi Show and were really impressed ... so when Dave from Fyne rang us to see if we would like a closer look ... and listen, we jumped at the chance.<br />
<br />

We listen to the small standmount Fyne 501 and the middle model of the range the F502, priced at £600 and £1200 respectively. Both units have astonishing mid range clarity and really sang on the varied tracks we tried. They have a very 'musical' and engaging chararcter which usually isn't available at the price at all.</div>

<br />
The F502 matched our demonstration room perfectly, but are quite clever designed in this respect having a downward firing port ... this has been done before to great effect, but Fyne also use a diffuser arrangement which controls how these frequencies exit into the room ... and it works well!<br />
<br />
Production versions are expected soon, give us a call to arrange a demonstration<br />

Most of these have been 80s or 90s Rega Planars, partly because they are so robust and partly as there are a lot of them out there!<br />
<br />
Be assured, we have never had to 'write off' a Rega, they are easy and fairly cheap to service... and most repairs are simple and cost effective.<br />
<br />
We supply everything you could need for your Rega right back to the 1973 original.....<br />

The SR L300 Limited is a combination of the L300 headband and ear pads, but with the drivers from the L700. At £645 these are just over half the price of a pair of L700 so are really good value!</span></pre>

The large panels on the walls are too break up sound reflections, normally not needed, but this room has very little furniture in it .<br />
<br />
The small picture frames are 'Art Vinyl' a neat way to display your LPs - these cost £99 for a pack of three<br />

You can make a fairly accurate judgement, taking into account price, company ethos, previous models, before you even listen. Every now and again though a product will come along that takes you totally by surprise ... it doesn't happen often, I can only think of a handful of occasions over the last 30+ years. The AR EB101 turntable in the 80s, the Krell KSA80 power amp also in the 80s...more recently the Tom Evans Groove Phonostage and the reworked Kiseki Purple Heart cartridge.. Each of these was a 'hang on.... do that again' moment, products that had you diving into you record collection. Now we have a new member of the club. The new Energiser from Stax, the SRM T8000 is so far and away better than the previous 'Top of the Line' the SRM007iiKIMIK that at first I didn't actually believe what I was hearing.<br />

Ok, at £4395 this has got to be very good, but even with that in mind this is still an astonishing product.<br />
I've never heard this sort of level of detail and delicacy ever before. Even on a favourite CD of mine. one I picked up at a concert by the support band, Jake Cogan and the Liberty Roses, not an amazing recording, but well written and played. I heard so many new things, texture in the strings, extra layers in harmonies, the acoustic of the studio ... totally enthralling. With other material it became apparent that the 8000 was supplying quite a bit more body to the sound, fuller, but also faster, not an easy trick. There has always been a assumption that as Stax are Electostatic Headphones that they only really suit Classical or simple Folk music, the 8000 certainly puts that to rest, it will happily Rock, and does so effortlessly.<br />

<br />
Also, as we have a lot more space now, we are introducing lots of new brands. We have added Monitor Audio, Ophidian, and Kudos speakers to the range and are looking at increasing our Amplifier and Record Player range..... we may also be stocking records if we don't run out of space<br />

This one will be around 35 years old no is still fitted with a classic A&R P77 cartridge. (A&R evolved into Arcam, but unfortunately no longer make cartridges) A Rega Bias2 is an excellent replacement<br />
<br />
This deck has been unused for a while, but there is unlikely to be any problems. Occasionally there can be speed issues, but this is an easy fix. The only common problem with early Regas is that the R200 tonearm wiring can start to break down...unfortunately Rega don't supply parts for these (as they didn't manufacture them) so problems here may require a new tonearm<br />
