No I haven't. £43,000pr is my current limit so far (PMC Fact Fenestria's) and it's twenty five years now since I heard the pro-market ATC SCM200A's. Not in the slightest designed for domestic use, but they and their pro relatives to me are in a different plane of existence to the crap we usually all use at home atcloudspeakers.co.uk/professional/loudspeakers/scm200asl-pro/I even measured up for a pair once before I met my wife and my priorities changed Those KEFs join a select arena in audio male jewellery daftness and being KEF, I expect they sell well in the far east where status is everything.

Alex bought them from you and still has and uses them - I heard them a few weeks ago and they're very Harbeth like - warm and refined rather than up-front and in yer face. Have you still got the Zero 100?
I was too harsh with the 'crap at home' comment so apologies. It's just that decent pro speakers do seem to have a sonic edge on so many domestic speakers, at least in the medium past and that kind of sonic spotlit quality suits me fine although taken to the extreme as some Dynaudio's do, it can be tiring in its over analysis of a recording.

I've heard em. Although it was only at a show, we were under whelmed, probably because they needed to be set up better and in a very large room. We have been impressed with the Blade and Blade 2 though.

Have you still got the Zero 100? Yes, still sat in the bottom of a cupboard, one of only four turntables I've got now.

I need to begin to move my stash on as I have accumulated rather a lot now. My Zero 100 is surprisingly good with the new-Ortofon-stylus VMS10E II fitted and, after a bloody good overhaul, it's quiet in terms of drive noise too. Beautiful looking thing in operation if not corroded with age and neglect, but lots to check underneath to ensure good running

Speakers like muons and big metal magical live in a rarefied atmosphere. The metal work on the muons is incredible. One single piece of super plastic alloy. Has to be 10k per chassis at cost. Makes Wilson's look cheap in comparison, which they are as they're just glued flat panels of plastic.
