Infinity BETA 40	16 December 2025
By: Cody Berg
"Infinity Beta 40 Review"
I purchased a pair of Beta 40's about 6 months ago and I have to say these tower speakers are pretty sweet! All genres of music sound great coming from these speakers, I listen to almost everything, including classical and honestly I've never heard so much bass produced from 6.5" woofers. These speakers have made me take a liking to Infinity audio. It's unfortunate they no longer make home audio equipment.. (Full Review)

Tangent Clarity 4	25 November 2025
By: Joe W
"Bookshelf speaker review"
I purchased the Tangent Clarify4 bookshelf speaker pair some 17 years after their initial release. I found them to be superior to the Sony SS CS5 speakers that many thought, redefined the affordable entery into the HIFI experience. A gloss white cabinet, made of some sort composit material, gives this speaker pair a progressively modern appearance. I've used them as a desktop system as well as in a 2.1 system for my tv sound system. If you can fi... (Full Review)

Philips FT561	11 November 2025
By: Tjerk
"Worthy entry-level tuner"
Typical entry level tuner. No frills but good performance. Lacking signal level meter and MPX filtering. Eight FM presets but the display will only show 1-4 or 5-8. Will over the years deteriorate, I had one in for repair with a detuned discriminator coil set. A quick tweak restored nominal operation. (Full Review)

Celestion 7	19 October 2025
By: Lyman_Zerga
"Celestion 7 Mk II"
I had these in the mid 90's, driven by a Pioneer A300 amp fed by a Marantz CD player. I used these on stands in a few medium sized rooms and one small room. The Celestions lacked bottom-end heft - perhaps not surprising given the closed box design and the dimensions and size of the woofer - but everything else was great. They were pretty big bookshelf speakers and they could play loud, cleanly and with great composure. Their real selling point, f... (Full Review)

Sherwood AX-4050R	12 October 2025
By: Simon Ferre
"Great that it has lasted this long without any issues"
I bought this amp from Richer Sounds back in the later half of the 1990s. I have kept it going all this time, albeit with periods of no use where it has been kept out of harm's way, and it still works without any grumbling. Paired with the original speakers I bought at the time, the Wharfedale Diamond Pro, a Cambridge Audio CD4, Sherwood turntable, Teac radio tuner and Aiwa twin cassette player, it has performed well for all these years, and I...

Monitor Audio Silver 5i	10 October 2025
By: Vasco Barreto
"Monitor Audio Silver 5i"
They are by no means easy speakers to drive. They perform best with low-distortion amplifiers delivering over 150 watts per channel. The cabinets need to be filled with iron filings or sand to reduce resonance, and they require solid stands underneath. They only truly shine when given the very best equipment you can offer. If you have the right room for them, they’ll give everything they’ve got. Compared to current models, the bass is very... (Full Review)

Tannoy J95 Series 90	07 October 2025
By: JOHN NOEL
"Tremendous Speed And Slam In The Bass Region"
I had a pair of these in the early 1990s at the end of a system comprising a Linn LP12 motor unit, Linn Ittok tonearm, Linn Asaka mc cartridge, Michell Iso mc phono stage, and Pioneer A400 amplifier. I have not heard a pair of speakers with speed and slam in the bass as these can reproduce to this date. I never knew that loudpeakers could reproduce a kick drum with such speed and slam as a live drum kit until I heard these(!) Whoever designed ... (Full Review)

Tannoy 615	03 September 2025
By: Graham Hutton
"20 Years"
I have a recording studio, have owned many hi-fi systems since 1979 when had Quad 22s and a Linn turntable with Quad electrostatics. Since I've had up to 3 systems in my house and studio at any one time and the longest serving component of any has been the 615's. I have tried to get something that looks better and sounds at least as good for under £3,000 but nothing so far has. They have 'something' They are detailed but not overly critically ...

MJ Acoustics Subliminal S1R	01 September 2025
By: Rod
"Wonderfully open"
These single Jordan JX92 drivers (without a crossover) sound wonderful and reach further into the lower frequencies than you would imagine. They cost £2000.00 a pair in the year 2000. Grab a pair - if you can find them. (Full Review)

Cambridge Audio CD200	28 July 2025
By: Paul Dolton
"Soundstage"
I'm giving this player a top score because although it's a basic player paired with the right amp and speakers it's got a lovely sounds stage and clarity I'm using with Musical fidelity ref 2 speakers and a denon 355r receiver and I've got to say it's gives an Incredibly good sound obviously the Dac is the reason and is used by some top hifi names Naim being one (Full Review)
