I am glad most people enjoyed the weekend, it took some organizing all on my own!
MCRU have 2 permanent demo rooms here in Huddersfield, for the fest we organized a 3rd room so 3 systems were on dem. It may surprise people to know we have demo rooms but yes we do!
A few pictures to share of the systems we listened to………………….
The Clearaudio Master Innovation
More of an engineering masterpiece than a turntable, we had 3 arms fitted and it sounded good but needed better amplification to do it justice, we were using IsoTek’s Primare amplifier.
IsoTeks demo system consisted of Primare CD player and amplifier, quite good actually, mains equipment was the polaris mains block (we all heard a distinct improvement even with that in and its only £250)
followed by the Aquarius mains conditioner and then the Super Titan and Genesis.
This is where I do most of my personal listening as it also doubles as a workshop, I have Canor amp, music server, Nicks new dac, Nicks phono stage, IsoTek Vision and currently a Lenco GL75
NWA special edition which I am selling due to lack of space. My trusty Snells sound wonderful, they will be going soon too!
The full main system
Below is the 3rd system we had on demo, Clearaudio Performance DC turntable powered with a Nick special psu, Canor phono stage, cd and amp and my Techy fitted with MN
bearing, nicks psu, vantage platter, isonoe feet, sme 309/kontrapunkt B cartridge and 2 sets of colins speakers which everyone remarked were sounding as wonderful as ever,
all running through an isotek aquarius, the 2 spare techies are both sold to customers awaiting their up-grades!
