B&W 801 D4 +Humboldt

u-sound said:
greystoke, the d4 801 is said to be very powerhungry, i dont think it is an ideal partner for the humboldt.
shortwave audio has an alexia2 for 26k pounds. in england, so no tax for you.

That looks like a GREAT match- I wish such things happened DownUnder!
I have Magic A5s, and I thought the Humboldt had JUST enough power to run them well.
But then I changed my speaker cables from high-resistance foil-type cables to some Espirit Kappa- it gave me like 3dB of extra headroom- the things really rock now, sounding sensational and so controlled. Bass is tight-as and I'm loving the whole presentation.
 
wow, a cable can make this much of a difference powerwise?
i wish to hear that humboldt / a5 combo.

humboldt with alexia2 is outstanding. and 26k pounds is the lowest price i have seen so far in europe.
 
all the prices are great there (so is the equipment advertised), is too good to be true at first glance.
 
too good to be true, you two are right.
just checked back at audiomarkt and saw everything from him got deleted
