Marten Duke 2 and Luxman L-590AXII

PC8100/9700 are great. Warm, liquid and powerful bass. I've spent a fortune on these cords and they are not going anywhere.

Thanks! I need to find time to update the system as the Harbeth speakers have been replaced by Grahams, and the addition of several Acrolink and Wireworld cables about 2 years ago.

There isn't any brand for the speaker stands as they are custom-made. Cheers.

Do you still have the Ceraball? Would appreciate if you can comment on the benefits they brought to the system when placed below components. Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words.Believe it or not the Harbeths have been moved more than 100 times in the room. The speakers are now placed wider apart and not close together. The presentation is...

I'm surprised the Nait 5i can push The One's. Great system you've got there.

Thanks Gadmanrdh and Daveyf. The Harbeth does sound great with the Naim to my ears and listening preference. I am sure your Guarneri Homage would sound equally awesome or even better. Cheer...

It is true that the potential of the system is not fully tapped in the current room especially in the bass since the room is not dedicated. Hence, your plan of sticking with the speakers(and system...

Your system has certainly evolved. From the modest B&W 9NTs in 2007 to the Dynaudio S3.4s and now the classy French speakers. The Nova Utopia Be's are in a different league from the Contour series,...

Hi Noncondition, thank you for your prompt response. It was much appreciated. The reason I ask this question is because I have a Spider rack and may try the Ceraballs. Cheers.

Hi, may I ask if the Ceraballs managed to improve upon other components apart from the transport? Are the Ceraballs supported on a Finite Elemente Spider rack? Thanks in advance.
