Re: Royd A7s

The drivers aren't original by the looks of things . Tweeters are original . I have cut ( botched (-: )the cabinets to size and lined some parts with ceramic tiles . Unfortunately my joinery skills are very much lacking )-: More to do tomorrow . What do I use to dope the speakers Doc . Sorry I forgo...

Re: Royd A7s

Thanks Peter , I had a couple of pairs of Minstrels a while back and if I remember correctly , yes the drivers were doped . I'm going into the loft in a minute and can check the A7s .

Royd A7s

The crossovers for these are like hens teeth so I was wondering if they would be suitable for turning...

Re: NVA Reviews (THIS THREAD IS ONLY FOR STASHING REVIEWS)

I've owned the P20 / A20 starter system for a few months now and thought it was time that I posted a review . This little starter system has been a bit of a revelation to me over the last few months and every time I listen to music it seems to sound better than the last time . The best compliment I ...

Re: Quad ESL 63

Quad ESL 63

I'm currently using an A20 and P20 starter system and will probably upgrade to A40 monoblocks before the year is out . Can anyone tell me if the A20 , or the A40s , will drive a pair of Quad ESL 63s .
