Re: How far apart are your speakers ?
Ok Stu did some measuring today. My Cube 2's are 3m centre to centre apart. 250mm off the rear wall to the centre. My listening seat is 3m exactly on the diagonal to each Cube centre. Both cubes are toed in so I can just see the inside faces and no more. So really a 3m equilateral triangle with my l...

Re: Speaker stands
Those Wharfdale speakers with the matching stands are beautiful to my mind. Very retro 70's look.

Re: Terminitus
Spot on Stu. Never heard a dramatic difference in cables till I tried NVA. I am sure there are good cables out there but often wonder about pricing. Even NVA cables cost a lot when you start to reach the top end of things. Never had the money or the inclination to experiment too much. So I guess my ...

Re: Terminitus
This +1. You should see what cables are used in a recording studio sometimes. Most of us wouldn't put them in the same room as our system never mind connect them up.

Re: New Dac
Yip if I can eventually get the cover off the laser may just need a clean Slinger. Had that problem before with an old transport.

Re: New Dac
Not taken the cover off the CXC yet. Have lost the use of my right hand for the moment. It may just need a laser clean or a blow out with some compressed air.

Re: New Dac
Thanks Slinger will look at these dacs you mention. I hope for a decent improvement over my Rega which is 10 years old now. Dacs seem to be one of the areas in HiFi that are still developing pretty quickly.
