Here are our highlights from the Bristol Hi-Fi Show 2016. We can't believe another year has come and gone since the last one! On the plus side however, this does mean we have a good memory for the show from 2015 and if there are a few things to highlight in comparison, 2016 has to be the year the rooms were most effectively presented. As always, there was a good selection of brand new products being launched at the show, alongside many recent additions to product ranges that were being presented

It's no secret that KEF are one of our all time favourite hi-fi brands. And the higher up the range you go, the better! We've already banged on about the glorious The Reference range until we're blue in the face, but it's not often we get the chance to air our (rather high!) views on the beautiful Blades. Truly some of the most standout speakers in the industry, for many a reason. Both the Blades and the Blade 2s have plenty to offer, more than a short blog would usually allow - so we've put our

You may have noticed that speakers have been something of a hot topic this month. After all, February is the month of love, and nothing says 'I love music!' more so than a lovely pair of speakers. So it's only fitting that we end the month as we started it... with more lovely speakers! Everything we've covered so far has required the use of a full hi-fi system in order to accommodate them, so it seems fitting that this time we give a little love to the speakers that can stand on their own two feet:

As nice as it is to have big statement pieces in your system, sometimes it's nice to have something a little more demure. After all, it's the sound that truly matters. The physical presence of the speaker doesn't have to be loud in order to be proud.
And on that note, meet the latest edition to the glorious ProAc range: the Response DB1s!
These are mini-monitors and mini-marvels! A tiny cabinet certainly doesn't mean tiny sound on any level, but these new speakers take that notion to a whole new

It's time to get excited about speaker stands. Why? Well, there are several reasons why, as with every upgrade you can think of. But in order to keep things brief, I'll give you the biggy: speaker stand upgrades are almost as good as upgrading the speakers. The difference an upgraded set of speaker stands makes to the overall sound and presence of your speakers has to be heard to be believed... and yet so few people actually think to upgrade them before trying out a new set of speakers.

New ranges are always exciting. We're not going to lie. When a new range of anything hits our showroom, it's like all of our Christmasses have come at once. So you can only imagine our joy when a brand new speakers range from one of our favourite brands of all time lands.
This is the range to replace the somewhat iconic Ikon (obvious pun, but true nonetheless!) and therefore has some pretty big shoes to fill, but the range slots in beautifully between the multi-award winning Zensor range which is

Yes, it's February already. And February is the month of love! Love for your romantic partner, love for pancakes (well, we love pancakes!) and... love for your hi-fi! Yeah, we're sure you love your hi-fi all year round, but you often do you actually show it how much you care?
Well, now the madness of Christmas (and the relative misery of January!) is over, there is no better time to take stock of what real life has to offer. If your music and your system are important to you, there is no better
