I don't mind Jimmy Carr and have seen him live and enjoy 8 out of 10 cats.

Not so sure about his more serious monologues as he's clearly repeating pieces from a lot of self help books he's read. As Simon has pointed out, it's not his own words or beliefs, he's just well read but it doesn't ...

I did see this on their website, tempting....


(There are a few positive comments from people choosing this combo on their website here . Bottom of page. Eg " I’ve been a Ruark fan for many years having owned a vita audio r2 followed by an R4i. I’ve just recently purchased an R410 and a Rs1 ...

Cambridge Audio has been connected to Richer Sounds for quite a long time - Julian Richer bought Cambridge with a partner in 1994, though it's always been a separate company to Richer Sounds. Julian Richer exited Richer Sounds and Cambridge Audio so I suspect they are less connected than they used ...

Nice. I see the Ruark has a dedicated sub output.....

Whilst the specs aren't anything special for a sub, their RS1 is physically pretty small, nicely finished, and not expensive at £350. I suspect it would make a pretty significant difference to the sound though..... :ugeek:


I did see this on ...

Went to Richer Sounds first as I see they stock all three. Sales person was only interested in pushing the Evo One, but I really wanted to hear all three so left undecided.

Whilst on holiday last week in the Cotswolds, we visited Cheltenham and saw a Sevenoaks Sound and Vision, so went for a ...

At 46 there's no way I won't need a pee in the night. Fuck navigating down a rickety ladder at 3am in the dark. Would rather use the 4k saving towards several hotel stays with a en suite.

You need @jimexpl (I can’t add a proper @ as I am on the phone

I think the best all-in-one isn’t actually an all-in-one but a pair of Dynaudio Focus 10.

Might be above the budget though!


Didn't want to spend more than £1300. It's taken me 6 months to get Mrs Holley to agree to change the B ...

I know that for keen audiophiles, the idea of an all in one wireless set-up is heresy. But I just prefer the cleaner look and ease of use. Dare I say it but if it becomes obsolete in 10yrs time, I'll just buy another one :oops:

WAF was always an important acronym on the hifi forums: wife ...

I did go to Richer Sounds in MK and the guy working there recommended the C/A Evo One. To be honest, he didn't suggest anything else (which was annoying as was keen to look at the Naim and R410).

All in ones appeal just one nice(ish) looking box, easy to use. My hearing isn't particularly great, so chasing the final degree of sound quality likely isn't worth pursuing. Got rid of all CD's years ago and no plans to ever buy Vinyl or CD's again, so streaming it is.

I've been using a B&W Z2 ...

Considering a Naim Muso 2, Cambridge Audio Evo one Or Ruark R410.

Anyone got experience with any of these? Any other wireless all in one I should be looking at?

Okay most probably aren't going to spec it to that level. But somewhere between £120k-£125k I would guess would be normal.

Doesn't seem special enough at that level.

Well done Will, that's fantastic. Best get that Vantage as a present to yourself!

Just be prepared for it to have periods where it just stares at you drooling while it talks utter bollocks.

Which they all do on occasion...
