Not sure if it's heavenly but would be alright

[Guest Muon N']

He advertises no models for the gear apart from the speakers

 

OK, can at least see it is Rega's entry table, the P1.

I think its decent for $1500. He's making his money on the Cambridge stuff.

Phil will give incentives now and then.

[Guest Muon N']

Lets see, the Qacustic 3010i can be had for $499 The newer model to that P1 is $495, the Cambridge amp if it's the AM-10 is $450, the player lets say it's the CD-10 is $450.

 

And includes the speaker stands, component rack, and cables?

 

Yeah, a decent buy there.

See if you can get a discount without the dog. The dog looks like a knock off anyway. 

[ThirdDrawerDown]

Dunno. You still want some bite to the sound. Dog may be a necessary component.

A good buy, however would ‘upgrade’ to the Monitor Audio Bronze 2’s that CAV sell.

 

[usercam]

man I would be all over that if I where local!

[anandpkumar]

Does sound like a bargain. See if all cables (interconnects, speaker cables, power cables) are included. Also whether the speaker stands and equipment rack are included. If everything is included, it's a good deal

 

You must listen to it before buying

[Hydrology]

There is no way the stands and rack are included.

Papillons are known to be voiced for excess treble.

Yeah it looks like a Cambridge Audio AM10 and CD10, Rega P1. Same system that I run in my bedroom except I have Equinox Pluto speakers. Yes it's a good deal, probably $500 off RRP. Try to change to the MA Bronze 2 if they allow.

 

And don't under rate the Cambridge Topaz gear. I've read some negative comments but for entry level gear that only needs to be played at 'normal' levels it's very capible. Same goes for the P1. And a step up to the Bias 2 cart is well worth the investment.

@MM93  even for a small sum the change to the Monitor Audio Bronze 2 would be huge,  Q acoustics (MA)=6ohm (8ohm), 86spl(90spl),65hz-30khz ( 42hz - 30khz), MA are much easier to drive
