    My TD150 MKii Rebuild

    Yeah, I have been doing loads of research. No point in adding isolation feet to the the Thorens. This actually suits my design better as I do not need to make provision for mounting them. I have found some speaker spikes which will go in each corner of the plinth and then I managed to get some...

    Took me a long time to find the stands, they were old discontinued stock lying in a storeroom somewhere. My go-to sound guy found them for me, then we took them to Roy, who obliged us by putting inserts into the base of the speakers so that we could mount them. I then mounted the stand on the...

    pic of front end Due to the layout of my lounge, the equipment is off centre to keep it away from the fireplace. Getting those Clareo's onto the wall mount stands (from Sound Structures) was a proper mission, as they weigh in at just a tad over 15KG each.

    I have been contemplating for a few days now whether or not to share details of my set-up, mainly because I feel rather amateurish looking at some of the kits on this thread. Anyway here goes: Yamaha Aventage RX2080 Receiver /Amp Yamaha Aventage BD -A1080 DVD/Blue ray Isotek aquarius Evo 3...

    My TD150 MKii Rebuild

    progress on the plinth. Slowly taking shape, some adjustments and changes to be done, then comes the sanding and sealing. Still looking for options on isolation feet, I may have a solution in the pipeline, but not certain yet, so any leads will be appreciated.

    My TD150 MKii Rebuild

    could someone point me in the right direction to get some decent, yet affordable (i.e. I have a budget of about R1500 or less) isolation feet for the plinth?

    What makes Sonor Audio speakers special!, the first in a series of videos narrated by the man himself Roy Witelson.

    I recently (almost 2 years now) changed my front B&W 685 bookshelves for the Clareo 6.1's. The Clareo 6.1 is an amazing speaker. I wish i had the space to get the floor standers, but these are impressive none-the-less and I am very very happy with them. They quite literally handle anything I...
