Linn LK85 |

I have two LK 140’s but I love my LK 85 equally. It sounds great, especially with one of my 3 Kolektor pre-amp (I have 3 Linn systems) and the small chassis is my style. It also runs amazingly cool. Highly recommended. They sell quickly and people hang on to them since the Linn build quality is a long term gamer.

I came across these kind of by mistake, bought them and wow what a great set of speakers. I think too many high end speakers are all about middle, these have everything and it's no wonder What HiFi gave them a 5 star rating back in 1997, they kind of set a standard.
One word of warning is they need stands, they also need padding between the speaker and the stand and if you don't have carpet, padding below the stands, the bass can make a room vib...

Wat een bijzondere review hieronder, ook ik moet reageren.
Deze versterker, een trouw stuk degelijk techniek waarvan het gewicht niet uitmaakt omdat ik deze, zoals vele, nooit optil is geen versterker om mee te nemen of rack model met handvaten, hoeken maken dus totaal niet uit, zeker niet als het uit ‘91 komt. Hoeken waren heel gewoon.
Wat wel bijzonder is, is dat de SU610 na 30 jaar nog steeds prima presteert!.
Ja, als klasse A zuipt deze ...
Translation: A faithful piece of technology with still atmospheric sound after 30 years. What a special review below, I also have to respond. This amplifier, a faithful piece of solid technology, the weight of which does not matter because, like many, I never lift it, it is not an amplifier to take with you or a rack model with handles, so angles do not matter at all, especially if it comes from '91. Corners were common. What is special is that ... More |

I’ve owned a pair from new and they still sound fantastic. I was first really impressed with how they performed with solo classical piano - Howard Shelly playing Rachmaninov. Now its how with home cinema you don’t need a separate sub-woofer even with action movies.

Harman Kardon TD4800 |

I just purchased one of these, refurbished by the seller.
There are probably better decks out there but I haven't had the pleasure of hearing them.
I tested the recording and playback sound quality as soon as I could after receiving it.
When using the TD4800 I cannot hear any difference between a cassette or a CD. None.
BTW, the cassette I tested with? It's about 40 years old and this is the first time it's been played in about 26 years....

Bought my first pair in 1985 in England after listening to various other quality brands and they still please me a lot. So I bought a second pair as surrounds secondhand and repaired one foam ring. Will replace the capacitors in the crossover soon to regain that open, detached from the speaker stereo image. Bass is sufficient in my view but you can always ad a sub. For surround I added a Mission 70C1 as center speaker.
Because I like to listen t...

During the Brexit, plenty of things were discounted on eBay from there, so I got it very cheap in mint condition.
It's surprisingly good for a cheap stereo amplifier. Nowadays, you can go with some Chinese things that quality, but this looks way better, has channel selector and very tactile. At this price point, I assume this as an added value.
It is excellent as headphones amplifier.

Tannoy Little Red Monitors LRM |

I own these speakers since November 2022. Great British classic from mid 80s. Powered with Quad 520f and NAD 3020 as preamplifier they sound natural, woody and the vocals are present. Very detailed, but not too much to call them fatiguing. I vote 8 out of 10 because: for its size I expected more low end bass; the LRM have slight lift around 2kHz - 2.5kHz and that makes it a little annoying on poor recorded punk rock guitars.
Overall amazing s...

For this price, it sounds very good! Like a lot more expensive machines! Mechanism is tank-built, has a wide, 3mm belt, and a hefty flywheel.
There is no manual bias setting. It is pre set throug tape position. Mind that some tapes are branded as "position high" ,but are stil not CrO2, although they seem like they are, so for those you stil use "normal" position. It will give nice high end.
Again, very good, workhorse machine!
