Clean, Controlled & Focused. Ideal for getting the best out of your Movies!

/

The Pioneer SC-LX56 AV Receiver does just that & more. Revealing subtleties & creating space in even the busiest  movie scenes, this is just one of the great strengths of Pioneer. Batman : The Dark Knight was a real treat with a Open, Unforced & Fast presentation. Movies shine and are somewhat Airy & Spacious in character. The Pioneer SC-LX56 is one of the most exciting AV Amps we've heard at this price point.

Onkyo TX-NR818

/

The first thing that strikes you as you unbox the Onkyo 818 is how big it is, but the front is clean and rather smart compared to other AV receivers. The remote is typically full of buttons, but the few buttons you are likely to use are in intuitive places and labelled logically. The amp is furnished with every feature you are likely to expect at this price point although you do need an optional dongle to connect to the internet wirelessly. A decent quick start guide is provided and the rest of the manual in on a disc.

Once you have connected all the speakers you can start the auto set-up process. The set-up process is one of things that they have improved over the older model. It attempts to guide you through the set-up with better explanations and pictures, and it is a lot better than than previous models, but it still isn't perfect. There are areas where a little more information would be useful.

The sound from the 818 is excellent in both home cinema and stereo, detailed and open, but not fatiguing. We used the KEF Q700 as the front speakers and were impressed with the overall performance. One thing we weren't so impressed with is the Onkyo remote app, which is awkward to set-up and use, but the internet features are reasonably easy to use when viewed through the TV if a little sluggish to react to commands.

Conclusion: Great sound and features with only a couple of minor gripes.

The importance of a good demonstration

/

At Audio T we want you to see and hear the best from your system and we want to ensure you get the best system for your money. The best way to do this is to experience the system you require in store with a full demonstration.

 

The performance of different equipment and accessories can bring significant changes to the sound and enjoyment of a Music System. There are many occasions when a customer has been surprised and said "I didn't think I would be able to tell the difference". They then become enthused and enjoy the demonstration, making a better choice of equipment, and hence enjoy their music to a greater extent.


We provide comfortable areas within our stores in order for you to make a better choice, as we truly believe in the demonstration process. So, feel free to bring along some music that you are familiar with, and come and listen. Let us open your ears to what we can do for you.


You cannot beat a good demonstration.

The Kefs are here plus more goodies

Just come into stock today are the brand new Anniversary Edition KEF LS50's, with a pair in our stereo demonstration room sounding awesome. These small speakers seem to defy logic by delivering a performance of detail and warmth more akin to much larger and more expensive speakers. Beautifully designed and finished in a gloss black cabinet and a rose gold driver array, these little speakers both look and sound fantastic and are definitely worth serious consideration. Phone us to arrange a demonstration, a must hear the next time you pop in.

Also arrived today is the new Naim Uniti 2 in our stereo demonstration room and not disappointing, delivering all that we are used to Naim products delivering with the finesse that we have come to expect from this UK based company.

KEF LS50 Loudspeakers NOW IN STOCK!

KEF LS50

KEF is marking its 50th anniversary year with the release of a special edition LS50 mini monitor speaker derived from the legendary LS3/5a used by the BBC in the 1960s.

Designed to bring the "professional studio monitor concept into the home", the KEF LS50 Anniversary will sell for £800 a pair.

They incorporate technology from KEF's flagship Blade speaker and use a KEF Uni-Q drive array.

The cabinet features constrained layer damping to reduce resonances, while the baffe shape has been optimised for smooth on- and off-axis dispersion. And the Uni-Q driver uses a damped Mg/Al alloy metal low/mid frequency cone and a rear-vented high frequency unit.

KEF says its R&D team was given a free hand to build the best small enclosure it could, regardless of the usual industrial design constraints. The KEF LS50 Anniversary model is finished in gloss black with a rose gold Uni-Q driver. It's available now.

Projection based complete Home Cinema for less than a price of a TV?

/

Q. Is it possible to have a complete projection based Home Cinema experience without breaking the bank?

A. Yes it is and we can show you how!

Mention a projector to people and they think about dim grainy images they might have seen in the local pub or boardroom. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Projectors have come on leaps and bounds in recent years and with prices falling, a high quality High Definition home cinema projector is now something which many people can afford. Most people don't realise that an 8ft wide 92" diagonal image is available for less than £2000 which includes a projector AND electric screen. Try getting that size image with a flat panel TV and you could expect to pay more than twice that price.

In fact, it is now possible to have a projection based Home Cinema system - complete with a 3D Projector, 7ft wide Electric drop down screen,  AV Amplifier, 5.1 Surround sound speaker package, 3D Blu-Ray player, 50m of speaker cable and HDMI cable, all for less than £4000!

So for less than £4k, you could have a fully fledged Home Cinema system or just a single 65'' 'telly' for the same money.

Many of our customers go for both options. A smaller high quality TV for normal casual viewing and a projector for big sports events and movies.

Please call us on 01277 264730 with your requirements and we will show you what can be achieved within your budget. Or better still, come in and we will show you what can be achieved. You may be VERY suprised...
