Better than new
After 15 years in storage and not working JS repaired and renewed my lovely MF tube CD player, complete with super Russian valves. After such a transformation I had to get the equally old Cyrus 2 and PSX upgraded. The combined effect is astonishing. Great advice, follow up calls, very efficient. Highly recommend!
Awesome transformation KW-550
After years of not being content with my system I let John do the full upgrade of my KW550. Being curious after John I picked it up when it was ready, which was quite a trip living near Amsterdam. But meeting John made it all worth wile. What a nice and knowledgeable guy he is! […]
My X-A100R
What a contrast… I had John upgrade X-A100R amp which has been part of life since 1999… I decided that vintage is the way forward and luckily enough Ebay seller Clifton from Eastcote had a set of near perfect MC-5 speakers up for sale… The upgraded X-A100R and these MC-5 speakers are unreal… Task… How […]
A3 CD awesome upgrade
Some time ago John upgraded my Musical Fidelity XP100 pramp to great affect, this has a great phono stage which is why I have kept it all these years, I told John that the sound through my record deck was better than the sound I get out of my Musical Fidelity A3 CD player, he […]
KW500 transformed
I was hearing eggs frying on one channel of my KW500, so it needed fixing. With so many positive reviews, I opted to go for the full Monty upgrade. That was one year ago, and it just seems to go on getting better and better. I mainly listen to classical music, and my Hi-Fi holy […]
Nu Vista Nirvanna
Nu Vista M3 Intergrated WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I paid MF for an upgrade over 10 years ago; I’m sure I didn’t get my own amp back, and the amp I got back didn’t sound any different. The amp recently had a fault dropping the right channel intermittently. I called John who immediately stated the selector […]
Simply in one word – ‘superlative’…
I have intentionally left leaving a review for a number of months so that I can give an ‘as is/accurate’ type of review; I should add because of my scenario (SCI) that I listen to my music way more than the average listener (sometimes up to 8 hours a day). As the review title says, […]
Upgrades galore!
I have been intending to do a review for ages; so apologies to John for the lateness! Over the last few years he has repaired & or upgraded all my Musical Fidelity kit (F15 amp, M6 Pre amp, M250 mono amp, 550K superchargers) to the point where every listening session or film viewing is transformed […]
NuVista 3D & kW550 revisted
I’ve had these upgraded for quite a time now and what has become more and more apparent is that the hardware responds transparently to any changes you make. I’ve upgraded my speaker cable and interconnects (several interconnects) and the changes are as clear as day. This allows me to fine tune my system to suit […]
Expectations exceeded
Whilst contemplating getting a newer and more expensive integrated amp, I stumbled upon a recommendation for John’s service. After swapping a couple of emails I decided on upgrading my amp, expecting to gain subltle and at best moderate improvements. My expectations have well and truly been exceeded, the NAD is now producing clearer and more […]
