After purchasing the Spendor s9e, I figure this is as far as I can realistically take things a good while.. and I couldn't be happier!

Components Toggle details

    • Spendor S9e
    Full 3 way speaker with large 22cm woofer. Finished in beautiful cherry veneer. They are absolutely stunning, the control, depth and air around the sound is shocking.
    • Advantage S101
    Predecessor to the Bladelius Thor MKII. Having heard the Thor, the differences are barely audible! 165w per side, liquid smooth sound, very detailed and well suited to the Spendors.
    • Apple Mac Mini
    Mac Mini running iTunes - some compressed, some uncompressed, but overall I have a digital jukebox of 70,000 tracks. Controlled with Front Row, or wireless mouse & keyboard
    • Edirol FA-66
    Don't be fooled - my Edirol FA-66 is a powerful sound-card and DAC in an exceptionally rugged red box! Connected via firewire to the mac mini, this handles all digital to analogue information with ease. Upsampling to 192khz
    • Chord Odyssey 4 Bi-wire
    Had these for years now, still work great considering I don't believe cables make a huge difference..
    • Samsung R73-40
    I use this as the monitor for the Mac mini - which is great, because it also works as an extremely function DVD player with VLC, as well as a great HD source..
    • Merlin Tarantula
    Mains cable connected to the amp. Never really noticed a difference to be honest..

Nice setup which looks great with the hardwood floors. Very elegant in deed.

Spendor and Advantage sounds like a good match.

Well done.
