He says if any fellow audiophiles are ever in the vicinity to get in touch so they can pay him a visit and listen to his system. That must be a once in a lifetime opportunity. The hardest part must be deciding which record to take with you to listen to.
That’s exactly what I’ve been doing, I’ve been going through mostly acoustic or live albums that I haven’t played for a while because they all just sound so much fuller and more immersive.
Absolutely! Very challenging thing with audio equipment, the only way to be 100% sure is to trial it in your system and see how it integrates with your individual setup. Luckily Buchardt do a 60 day open return from the date of receiving them so that you can do just that and they cover the return shipment costs if you do find they aren’t suitable which is extremely generous of them and shows their confidence in their products.

I need to play this now!!!
This is a Limited Edition UK reissue from 2004 which was for the 20th Anniversary. On yellow vinyl which is a nice touch.
Very good Buchardt give a 60-day open return and cover return shipping, that’s reassuring and like you say shows what confidence they have in their products. Those ISOAcoustics Aperta desk isolation stands look really impressive. Please post photos of your speakers on them when you get them and how they affect the sound.That’s exactly what I’ve been doing, I’ve been going through mostly acoustic or live albums that I haven’t played for a while because they all just sound so much fuller and more immersive.

I’m extremely satisfied with them though, and will definitely be keeping them.
Next month I’ll be getting some ISOAcoustics Aperta desk isolation stands which should firm up the bass a little and generally tighten the sound:
Aperta Series
Discover the Aperta Series speaker isolation stands, designed to manage the energy of the speaker and reduce vibrations resonating through the supporting surface to eliminate dissonant sounds in the listening area or joining rooms.
I've got some ISOAcoustics Orea Bronze isolator feet replacing the stock feet on my record deck, so have some experience with their stuff, it's expensive, but the finish is really high quality so it becomes a piece rather than simply adding function without form which I appreciate, and the results are very worthwhile:Very good Buchardt give a 60-day open return and cover return shipping, that’s reassuring and like you say shows what confidence they have in their products.

It's amazing, hasn't grown old at all for me, I love it, real pick me up song.I have this on vinyl from when I was a kid
I have to admit I love playing it, it's a classic. I have to show it to anyone who hasn't heard it when they come round.
I don’t have that one actually.Have you got Stop the Cavalry to hand? I can't help but think that would sound epic through a good system on Vinyl. No idea why that sprung into my head but I can just imagine the brass coming alive
It is illegal to mention Christmas in August. The penalties are severe!Christmas Song = Christmas Present
Hiya, I'm not sure I have noticed a difference really with burn in, they just generally sound excellent.
Just additionally to this, my set up is by no means optimal, it's currently in a tiny room and using the speakers nearfield on the desk, and very close to the window and curtains behind. They're really good for that use as far as 2 way bookshelves go, but they'd be far far better properly setup on stands spaced to each end of the room and brought out a little to give space behind.
