No doubt will also sound really good but I really like the looks of the new Modwright amps

Lovely looking things. But… Ambrose ? Not a good name at all​:roll_eyes:. “Here is my 10K amp and preamp. They are called Ambrose.” Sounds great doesn’t it? Maybe he’ll bring out a phono stage called Chester, or a DAC called Myron to round out the set. Always a good idea to pick names that maximise full pride of ownership.
Maybe speakers called Winston
Or Bernard. I would quite like a large pair of Bernards in the listening room…
Saintly
yes i have been watching the ambrose developments on the modwright forum

My speakers are called Tony and Barbara
Always wanted one of these, love the look.
Rather stupidly sold a set of the below Primare, what an idiot.
They’d be worth a small fortune by now if you had hung on to them
To be fair, I got good money for them, it’s just they would be worth more now in a nice shiny rack
I am NOT selling these however.
I remember drooling over those in Hifi Choice many many years ago
iirc the Hovland kit has a fairly disastrous rep for reliability - hence why they no longer exist
Love the look of the Primare stuff

Cable lifters are what’s really making the difference there Bob

Those kinds of systems never do anything for me at shows. Highly impressive at certain aspects but always come over as a synthetic version of how music sounds to my ears
