Marantz Model 40n Streaming Amplifier
Lately there has been a slew of amplifiers with streaming capabilities built-in and the Marantz Model 40n is the latest to join the ranks. The idea is that you just add speakers and you have a modern music system with the likes of Spotify, Tidal, AirPlay & Bluetooth included. In this case, because it's Marantz, the built-In streaming is courtesy of their proprietary Heos streaming platform which is also shared with Denon products as Marantz & Denon operate under the same parent company these days.
The Model 40n is for those whose music collection is infinite and online. Connect to your network with Wi-Fi or Ethernet. With HEOS® Built-in, you won't need extra equipment to stream your favourite tunes. Model 40n supports Spotify, AirPlay 2, Apple Music, Bluetooth, Tidal, TuneIn Radio and more services - plus, playback of your own collection via USB-A input or from compatible home servers.
The joy of vinyl playback is both audible and tactile yet requires highly specialized electronics for high performance. The Marantz Musical Phono EQ is built in so you can connect a turntable with MM cartridge directly to the Model 40n. You'll enjoy your favourite records and discover new ones, all without the burden of additional electronics.
The Marantz Model 40n recognises that not every recording is perfect and puts your sound preferences at your fingertips. It allows you to adjust bass and treble to suit your sound or bypass these controls for the purest sound possible.
Model 40n follows a long line of historic Marantz pieces notable for their exquisite design. Every aspect is considered—from premium materials, symmetry, classic porthole display, and even smooth operation of the volume control. Your stereo doesn't need to look like lab equipment. Marantz Model 40n begs to be heard, seen, and touched.

B&W 705 S3 Signature Stand Mount Speakers
The 705 S3 Signature has taken over as B&W's ultimate 700 Series stand mount speaker, a no-holds-barred celebration of excellence able to highlight all the subtle nuances in your music that other speakers miss.
Its Carbon Dome tweeter is housed in a Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top enclosure evolved from the latest generation of 800 Series Diamond. That joins a new and subtly curved baffle endowed with an all-new 'pod' housing for its Continuum Cone bass/midrange driver, ensuring that you hear less of the speaker's cabinet, and more of the music you love.
The 700 Series Signature models employ a series of carefully designed and engineered upgrades designed to deliver the best possible sound and visual presentation.
Aesthetically, the Signature models are finished in lustrous Midnight Blue Metallic paint or Datuk Gloss veneer, with multiple coats of paint or lacquer to deliver a supremely rich and desirable finish. Metal component parts, such as the tweeter body, are finished in Satin Black.
Drive unit pods and tweeter grilles are trimmed with a gold colour diamond cut trim bezel while Tweeter grilles adopt the same advanced design and hole pattern found on the 801 and 805 D4 Signature models. Each unit also features new brass speaker terminal posts for a cleaner signal path along with a Signature logo above the speaker terminal plate designed to highlight its exclusivity.
The Crossover is the main area of significant audio improvement over the standard models and includes a raft of upgrades and improvements

AudioQuest Rocket 33 Factory Terminated Speaker Cable
When Bill Low created AudioQuest in 1980 it was really just a small variation of the audio activities he had started in 1972 when at school. He wanted the best audio sound then and we are pleased to say nothing has changed. It all started with speaker cable and the story continues.
The AudioQuest Rocket 33 cable does not look normal on the outside, and it is not at all normal on the inside. Amazingly clean and effortless performance is made possible by a sophisticated combination of extraordinary materials and extremely refined design.
All six of Rocket 33's conductors are solid. Solid conductors prevent strand interaction, a major source of cable harshness and distortion. Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in a conventional cable is the single greatest source of distortion, often causing a somewhat harsh, dirty and confused sound. Solid conductors are the most important ingredients enabling Rocket 33's very clear sound. Whether a conductor is solid or stranded, skin effect is a prime distortion mechanism in speaker cables. Rocket 33 very simply keeps this effect out of the audio range by using conductor sizes that are below the threshold for audible distortion.
Rocket 33 uses a carefully finessed combination of Long-Grain Copper (LGC) and extremely high-purity Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC). LGC has fewer oxides within the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries and definitively better performance. The astonishingly smooth and pure PSC further eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity.
