Along with either Monitor audio Bronze b2 or B&W 601s coupled with a REL Quake (for movies and when i want to turn it up) The appleal for matching components and the smaller speakers is my wifes EYE! BUT, when she goes out i also like to be able to turn it up!! Lastly a word on value for money interconnects and speaker cable .......... PHEW! Thanx all. |

You will be hard pressed to find better prices. Failing that then ask them if they will let you take home the electronics you listed, a set at a time, although you will have to source your speakers elswhere as they don't run the Monitor Audio or B&W lines of speakers. I would suggest you decide on your speakers first then the electronics. Sevenoaks run both MA and B&W and they will price match if you ask nicely. Very helpful and knowledgeable people. |

New member Username: ValeemPost Number: 41 Registered: 12-2003 | Cambridge Audio only use Richers for their distribution. Also I see Sevenoaks don't run the NAD line, but Richers do. If you decide on the NAD cd player Richers will beat any price by £10, so you will be able to get one for £160. and http://www.hispek.com both sell for £170. Just supply your Richers with the info (Tel no.) Another tip if you buy a complete system most retailers will give you a discount. |
