Only four pairs are available to the UK, at standard NP2.0 price.

It may not (quite!) be the world's most expensive speaker cable, but it has a very good claim on being the best. We now have this remarkable speaker cable on demonstration - by appointment only, please.

We had the pleasure of running it in at the recent Northern Sound & Vision Show in Manchester, where, even under reasonably adverse circumstances, it was showing us some things that we have never heard before.

This little device performs some seriously impressive interfacing for i-pod and computer users who have a high quality music or A/V system.

Firstly, it is an i-pod docking station, but with a difference. The digital data on the i-pod is accessed allowing an external high quality D/A converter to decode and output the music to achieve the highest possible quality.

Secondly, a USB connection allows PC / Laptop users to output their music files to their Hi Fi or A/V system in the same way.

The unit comes complete with remote control, and is £150.

The MusicWorks ReVo Table has won the Hi Fi Plus 'Product of the Year' award in the category Stands & TablesLink to Hi Fi Plus Article HERE

Purity of form often comes from the pursuit of purity of function. The beauty in the shape of a Stradivarius violin is the inevitable consequence of making the world's finest sounding violin.

We have been asked which industrial design company came up with the design of the ReVo table. to the questioner's surprise, the answer is none. The ReVo table is the consequence of form following function!

The truism that a well set up modestly priced system can outperform much more expensive kit that is less well set up is easily demonstrated using the ReVo. In fact in a recent Thursday evening listening session, all seven listeners preferred the good £550 CD player on the ReVo to the excellent £4,000+ CD player on our previous reference!

ReVo 100% acrylic 3 tier equipment table £895 (10mm acrylic) £1250 (15mm acrylic).

For a short period, customers who have purchased a Quadraspire / MusicWorks acrylic reference table from us can save 25% on the above prices.

This could easily be the most important Hi Fi product that we have heard in the last 10 yrears.

We now have the Focal Electra 1028Be  and 1008Be on demonstration in the shop. Both of these speakers represent a big improvement in performance on their original counterparts (1027Be and 1007Be). Whereas the old 1007 was clearly behind the old Micro Utopia Be in terms of performance, with the exception of bass extension, we would put the new 1008 clearly ahead in all important areas. So basically more performance than we were getting a year ago for less than two thirds of the price. The Electra 1028 builds substantially on the performance of the 1008 in low frequency extension and ability to scale.

The 1008 is priced at £2,649 for standard finishes, and the 1028 is £4,600.

We will be attending the National Audio Show at Whittlebury Hall, September 26, 27. We will be showing a system featuring the brand new Focal Electra 1008 Be. Despite appearing to be virtually identical to the Electra 1007 Be they replace, these speakers represent a huge step forward, for a very small increase in price.

As usual, we will try and make things interesting by conducting some demonstrations of the effects of 'foundation' components such as power distribution, support and cabling. MusicWorks will be launching at least one new product at the show.

See you there.

In conjunction with Mark at BluTech, our electrical installation guru, and with the experience we have gained in developing MusicWorks products, we are pleased to offer a dedicated mains supply installation service. Using a double screened high current cable, you get the benefit of a dedicated feed to your Hi-Fi system, and a reduction in electromagnetic pollution. The socket, again selected for its audio performance is wired back to your consumer unit on it's own dedicated feed, wired to optimise system performance.

Typically the service will cost around £500, and will easily justify itself in the context of the improvement in performance. For those who wish to obtain a no compromise performance, cryogenically treated cable and sockets are available.

Contact the shop for more information.
