My wife assisted in financing the various items I own. I also don't own exotic kit but if I die before she does, she knows that Francois owns what used to be my stuff. Audio Exchange would inherit the stock, and another audiophile will enjoy the good sound that I enjoy presently. You can't take...

^ That's what I would like to know also.

Check the back of the stud to see if the internal wire is soldered on or fastened with a nut, if drilling the hole right through the stud will not upset the connection, use a 4mm drill and the plug will go in to the shoulder QED. The nut type of connection will not be affected by a hole through...

Sorry I see Tannoy is  rated as 1 along with some other speakers ,but still.

Wow  Tannoy in 45th position!  I wonder which Tannoy speakers they were listening to, Must be the  Bottom range of Mercuries.

@ Willem (Valvesound)  I know many people like a good looking piece of kit and I am one of them, but even if you built me a "plankie" version of this preamp, I would buy it , the sound and detail not to forget how good it generates bass is so realistic ,that this is one time that the look makes...

I received this preamp from Francois this afternoon at lunch time ,I arrived home ,connected the Valvesound Revelation 3 preamp to my system and had an absolute ball listening to MUSIC from then until now. It's about 1h00 now and if there ever was a chance to have listeners fatigue ,it would be...

@ Terra    The R650 buys you a set of eight spikes with eight woodcerts and eight stainless steel threaded studs that fit into the woodcerts and that's not all.  You also get eight brass disc tilesaver/floorsavers/carpetsavers. I am assuming that each speaker will need four spikes, so a...

@ CAD The screw in nuts that I use for the speaker spikes, are called "woodserts" and are obtainable at a place called "Acorn Fasteners" in Centurion, Pretoria area, They are a lot less expensive than "T" nuts .

@ CAD,  I buy those "woodserts"at Acorn Fasteners, I think they also call themselves "Boltfast"and they are situated in Centurion ,Pretoria area and they are fairly inexpensive compared to "T" nuts. @ DeonC  I could make you a set like that for R650, which includes the "woodserts" and stainless...

Don't just sit there looking at them... go and install them already.

Sketch us an idea of what you want, with dimensions and must it have inner drawers etc. One mans jewellery box is another mans "parts" box. Must it be lockable with a concealed lock or will a hasp type lock work. Must it have intricate carvings or plain wood. What kind of wood. Am I making...

Ask Francois, of this forum.

@ Rhino,  where are you situated?  If you are in Pretoris Joburg area I can make you the exact screw in and speaker spikes. Wilson Audio calls them "sound diodes" Your picture shows the spikes in aluminium but I can make them in brass ,if you like.

This is a system that very recently rocked me,and it is still available for a sneak listen ,before the Duntech Sovereign speakers go back. I am talking about the Manley Reference 500 monoblock amplifiers linked to the Duntechs with the HP100 Hovland preamp and even a choice of input.  I think...

I think that Francois has a Lampizator DAC

Why all the fuss?. If you can't hear any difference then why buy the expensive "wires"? If you can hear a difference, and you feel that it's worth paying more for the difference in sound, then buy the "wire" that makes YOU happy, why try to justify your expensive purchase to the hard of hearing?
