AudioGremlin's System
http://www.lurcher.org/ukra/mike_g/mike_g.html will give you a good idea however that site is now a bit outdated. The Source turntable is now a Sota Sapphire III, SP11 is now Manley Steelhead and the Lumley 120's are now Manley Neo-Classic 250's. The Koetsu was recently rebuilt. The system is presently dismantled for room decorating and recarpeting, should be back again in a few weeks (I'm missing it).

Great system. Love the Infinity´s. My first loudspeakers were the Kappa 5.
Best regards AM |

Hi Timbre,
The Kappa's are excellent too. I started out with RS2b's driven my Nestorovik Alpha 1's, a great combination until I heard the 1b's and had to have them. Then the Nestoroviks wouldn't drive them properly without red hot anodes the Lumley 120's were better but the Manlay NC250's easily drive them and sound very good too. |

Those speakers never fail to impress on looks alone! Unfortunately, I've never heard them I must rely on the legendary stories I hear about them instead.
Congrats on what must be an amazing system. |

The bass amplifier (NRG 401S) for my Infinity RS1b speakers died last night along with smoke from the right channel heatsink area Can't really complain as it managed twentyone years of excellent trouble free service. Not interested in a repair as I feel reliability due to age could be an issue.
Web searches for a suitable replacement not surprisingly date back many years, that set me wondering if anyone here could suggest a replacement? Anyone still using RS1b's I'd very much appreciate your opinion. |

Are you thinking of selling on the NRG...?

Its a possibility. I still have the original packing plus the large wooden shipping crate, the operating manual plus a zerox copy of the service manual that NRG sent me prior to their closing.
Absolutely brilliant amplifier, huge current delivery - bass tuneful, tight and very powerful. |

I'd appreciate any suggestions on a modern bass amplifier for my Infinity RS1b speakers. Most high wattage amplifiers nowadays have balanced outputs that I don't believe are suitable. I thought about the Bryston 4BSst2 though don't think it had enough power to match the Manley 250's I use for the mid/top. Any suggestions very gratefully received.

I remember see those speakers a way back and thought they were the holy grail they use to cost a bomb.
Nice one |
