SUMMER SOUNDS

Today your music collection is mobile: with the increase in technology you can take your collection wherever you go! This is great – it means on those summer days (which we seem to be getting a lot of at the time of writing this) you can sit in the park or garden and enjoy your favourite tracks. This said sound that comes from a phone or portable device is very often inadequate and lack lustre: due to the size of the device etc speakers capable of doing anything of merit cannot be fitted

This year Naim celebrate their 40th anniversary – no mean feat for a Hi-Fi manufacturer - there are only a handful of other manufactures that have or will reach this milestone!

Julian Vereker officially incorporated Naim Audio in 1973. Vereker, an entrepreneur and forward thinker, was unhappy with the professional recording equipment of the time and decided to design his own power amplifier. Prior to this, in 1969, he had already designed a sound to light box capable of switching 30kW of lighting

The long debated argument about cables has been batted around for an eternity, do they make any difference and does price reflect performance? All questions we are asked on a daily basis. We at AA believe that cables can make an improvement on your system when quality is used. Merely the mention of the words “quality” and “cables” in the same sentence causes one to think of a particular brand synonymous with this: The Chord Company.

Formed in 1985 Chord have been doing things right for nearly years,

To coincide with the new Stream Xa, Cyrus will be offering summer deals on their existing Streaming products! Streaming is hot property at the moment, and many companies are jumping on the bandwagon, although few do it as well as Cyrus. We see increasing numbers of our customers looking at streaming as on option - the ease of having all your music stored in one place for easy access is great a prospect.

Streamline 2

The fantastic Streamline 2, offering 24bit/192kHz playback, is a sublime all-in-one

You may have already seen our blog regarding the AK120 and AK100 - these are fantastic portable music players offering the highest level of fidelity available today. Given that technology advances eons in minutes (overstatement!),  knowing that adequate support is available from the manufacture is essential. Take Apple devices for example – you have the one device and this lasts you a long time, but you are not stuck with this, constant firmware updates improve, refine and augment the function

The sub-£1000 loudspeaker price bracket has been a hotly contested one in recent years, as manufacturers battle to stake their claim to the more popular, consumer end of hi-fi and home audio. Here at Audio Affair, we appreciate that narrowing down the vast range of speakers available at this price can seem a very daunting task. Worry no more! This blog will help you filter through the range, and hopefully illuminate a couple of standout choices in your search for the perfect budget bookshelf loudspeaker.

If like me you’re into Hi-Fi, then I imagine you have great admiration for all kit - the way it looks, the style, and most importantly of all the sound! There are certain names synonymous with high end products: Quad, Spendor and Naim for example, all of whom made fantastic kit then and now. With this is mind, and being huge audio fans, we are always open to buying second hand gear and taking in part-exchange items. This said, the kit we buy undergoes stringent examination by myself – I have personally

The Quest For Portable Perfection!

Let’s start with a little background on portable music players - starting with the Walkman, probably the most popular portable stereo. This was ground-breaking at the time and offered the user the ability to enjoy their music wherever, whenever! As with most things in this arena technology moves quickly; I could spend hours on this but basically: Tape to HDD/SD – that is as far as I want to go, you know the rest! Given the popularity of portable players there is

Choosing the right direction

Wherever you look people can be seen using Headphones and Earphones: train, bus even in cars? Not 100% why on the last one but each to there own! What I am basically trying to say is that music on the move is massive at the moment and looks set to continue – I personally would not be seen on the train or bus without my trusty headphones. This popularity raises problems however every manufacture is jumping on the bandwagon and as I am sure you can appreciate this often
