About
Currently gradually selling two generations worth of china and glass and a large train set. When I m not doing that I love Hifi and music and am really into making my system sound as good as possible.

Immediate
PM6004, a step up from the PM6003 (less abrupt volume control for one) but without the complexity of the DAC in the 6005 and above. Punches well above its weight and has a musicality and insight that bigger amps don't have. Instantaneous in its amplification. I prefer this to my £8k pre power combo!

Great CDP.
This is a very good Cd player, the cdm12.1 drive is very fast to read a cd. The sound quality is fast and dynamic using a top quality very underrated tda1545 continuous calibration DAC which Phillips have labelled bitcheck. Don't let the captive cables put you off they actually mean one less connection.

A huge slice of high end hifi.
Best heard on stands, any stands, I'm using second hand Atacamas. I did have them on a bookshelf and was a bit meh, but put them on stands and suddenly there's imaging, accuracy, and tonality. Vocals are like they are in the room. Listening to the TV through them I find myself wondering what's going on outside the house, before realising it's on the TV.
They present a very accurate soundstage, can really hear separation and imaging to such an extent my other more expensive and bigger speakers have been put away.
The concepts have some technologies that are beyond other speakers, such as the aluminium front plate with bitumen strips behind so the sound from the drivers is not being towed by the cabinet, the terminals are non ferrous(magnetic) except for the nut, and the tweeter is de-coupled. Also of course there is the cabinet within cabinet construction.
These were £450 originally and are now available at ~£200, I guess the concept 30 is the replacement at £800+ would love to hear those.
Bass - they have all the bass it goes very low and is tuneful, it's just not the loudest, if you want loads of bass the concept 40 floor stander might be better.
Cables do matter, look at the insulation, ptfe insulation is worthwhile eg QED xtube .
