If vinyl sounds better than CD, you need one of these...

Just as it seems I have kicked the bike buying habit, one unhealthy costly hobby replaces the other. Going to pick up some Quad 22L speakers on Wednesday in that pointless quest for a better sound...ho hum.... better than spending the money on drugs I suppose.

Anyone have any experience on these air movers? 50watts should be ok to run them I think but any top tips, place them 30.8569cm from the wall whilst chair is aligned to the north star on a Thursday?

Were they the ones on Gumtree?

22L are alright. Alignment with northstar optional.

Anyone interested in a pair of Mission 731 bookshelf speakers I've had in storage for many years. They are in excellent condition with grilles apart from one lower corner of the plastic front has been chipped while in storage. They come with matching Mission Micrometer stands which fit these and other Mission bookshelf speakers from mid - late 90's. They are quite an unusual design.

I'm away from home at the moment but have found a link to an elapsed ebay auction showing identical stands. (Sold for £69.95!) - http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/190831033100?cmd=VIDESC

Due to the chipped corner I thought £25 for the speakers and stands? Collected from staffs ST13 or am traveling to Cornwall next week.

When I was at quad ( dewin the woooar) the 22's were just coming out. They were probably the last speakers to be built in the UK. Wharfedale had taken over the brand to become IAG.
