Forum : Other Products : What other hifi equipment sounds good with your Quad hifi? Have you tried other CD players with your Quad speakers? Do you have recommendations? (Just added) http://www.hifi-forums.co.uk/ Paired my 2905's with dCS Puccini connected directly into a Halcro MC20 Power amp using the built in Pre of the Puccini.Originally I was using Crystalconnect balanced with Crystal Piccolo speaker cable.I then tried Anticable speaker cables and the system came to life completely, bass extension unbelievable and more attack than I thought was possible from an ESL. Now have changed balanced interconnect to Anticable too, more detail, more bass.Could not be a happier Quad user. http://www.hifi-forums.co.uk/messages.cfm?messageid=D3E6F24F-3048-839B-A2713D291CC06E9A&r=1 2008-05-10T17:35:38--01:00 My 2905's are singing Paired my 2905's with dCS Puccini connected directly into a Halcro MC20 Power amp using the built in Pre of the Puccini.Originally I was using Crystalconnect balanced with Crystal Piccolo speaker cable.I then tried Anticable speaker cables and the system came to life completely, bass extension unbelievable and more attack than I thought was possible from an ESL.

I was originally usin CrystalConnect interconnect and speaker cables and the speakers were OK, I ordered some Anticable speaker cables as a experiment and I was blown away,the speakers came to life. Suddenly base was extended far beyond anything I had heard from them before, also a real unexpected plus was the amount of musicality AND attack I am now experiencing.I cannot believe the incredible sound quality. http://www.hifi-forums.co.uk/messages.cfm?messageid=D27FFB79-3048-839B-A2B5A2925DCF3094&r=4 2008-05-10T11:03:33--01:00 My 2905's are singing I am using a dCS Puccini connected balanced into a Halcro MC20.

CD player is a Thorens TCD2000 with Cambridge Audio interconnects between CD and pre and custom made Audioquest from pre to the 2 power amps. I have to say it works very well for me! Even better now it is used in 2 rooms rather than 4 speakers in one! Sadly my 34 is poorly and has a cooking transformer! http://www.hifi-forums.co.uk/messages.cfm?messageid=C5D76316-3048-8D61-F89A61A63BDF5E28&r=6 2008-05-08T00:03:57--01:00 A fairly unique set up Hi all,I use a Quad 34 pre with 306 and 405 power amps powering B&W CDM2 and CDM7s respectively.
