This is the new top spec drive belt from Rega. These reduce WOW or flutter in the rotation of the platter because they are made to an exacting standard with no impurities whatsoever.

These belts now come as standard with the Planar 8 and Planar 10 but are highly recommended with the Planar 3 and Planar 6 especially if you have the Neo TT PSU.

It can be a nice upgrade, however, for any Rega Turntable.

Every now and then Loewe bring out a television product that throws down the gauntlet for design and performance so as to let the other television manufacturers know who really is the boss.

When your newest model television has evolved to minimalist thin screen how do you actually make it beautiful and something special?

An alien species coming to visit would conclude that most of the human race is in religious servitude to mysterious black rectangles that transmit controlling information for several hours a day.

Well this Loewe TV made in a piece of stone is a graven image to which all other Televisions are subservient.

This will be available in two sizes, being the 55 inch for $12,999 and the 65 inch for $15,999 ... there will be slate grey and clay white finishes and very limited quantities.

The Loewe iconic has been awarded the Gold medal for design by the IFF 2023

Indigo: Eliminates parasitic vibrations, and providing greater sound clarity and focus. The Indigo’s are ideal for amplifiers, DAC’s, CD Players, Speakers and Turntables. Made of machined stainless steel, the Indigo’s have a low-profile design to minimize any increase in height.

Each Indigo will hold up to 16lbs (7.2kg) and have a coloured ring on the bottom isolator that denotes the model and weight capacity. The OREA series are packaged individually to allow greater flexibility when determining the number of units to use. We recommend a minimum of 3 units under each component, depending on weight.

Bluesound describe this as another compact speaker. It is however bigger than the Pulse Flex2i and therefore offers more grunt and volume for listeners. Deeper bass notes and more sound in general terms.

For many family entertaining areas having good for movies and the occcaisional big screen gaming is important but they're not willing to spend thousands on an amplifier to deliver the very best. 

This is where the AVR-X1800 is perfect. It has the flexibility to do either one room with 7 channels (two channels of dolby atmos!) or a traditional 5 channel system with a zone 2 on some outside speakers or set up in another room.

All this with the power to run even some quite challenging loads. Ie. inefficient speakers!

Music streaming is built-in and ready to go along with Bluetooth and a plethora of other features. For a full feature list see the official Denon website here

All the family fun without a hefty pricetag!

I've been waiting years for this amplifier. Even before there was a tantilising rumour that Rega had started designing the elusive amp that sits between the Elicit R ($3799) and the Osiris ($13,995), it was a near constant lament from customers - 'but why doesn't Rega make an amp at the $5K - $7K range. I love the Osiris but it's out of budget and I need something more than the Elicit R'. 

Well it has arrived and it is beautiful. A newly designed casing that is solid and industrial but with some sexy curves that form cutouts to reveal the bulky heat sinks underneath.

And how does it sound...well...it grips and it dictates yet its smoothness is alluring. Detail, tightness and extension in the bass is all there but there's also the lusciousness and enveloping blanket of sound that you only get with a Rega.

The Aethos has set a new benchmark at this price point.

This is an easy way to add Bluetooth capability to any amplifier. Included in this unit is a DAC as well so it simply takes an analogue input on the back of your amplifier to connect to. Additionally it does have a digital optical out for a digital connection.

Bluetooth will never be great HiFi audio quality, we definitely recommend switching to a WiFi based streamer for that. But this is an easy an convenient way to get your streaming services on any system!

This new Creek 4040 is an absolute cutie of small form factor high fidelity amplification in homage to the original 4040 that was ... forty years ago ...

The original model 4040 amp was so sonically polite and self effacing that it was very hard to sell in comparative demos but loved forever by those who took it home. Having played it now this a really serious contender for a jolly brilliant amplifier with bells and whistles of something much more expensive ... for some reason a Renault Alpine or Crighton CR700 come to mind ... something small that is much higher performance than its size suggests.

These days it's so hard to find a half decent small monitor TV. The Asian TV brands either simply start at 55 inch or if they have a smaller set, they are horrible things that look bad when they're on and even worse when they're off.

Also the last thing you want when space saving on a small TV is to find that you need a whole extra sound system to go with it because the in-built speakers are firing onto your wall and they're crappy little things anyway.

This is where the Loewe We. SEE 32 is different. It has an on board front firing 80W sound bar that integrates with the monitor looking just as stylish as the monitor itself. They come in a funky range of colours as well as a subtle grey to look the part in any room. Their build quality and picture is well above the competitors in this size of Television.

This unit comes with your streaming apps loaded onto the TV boasting all of the conveniences of a modern Smart Television. Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video and Freeview Play are all ready to go and the remote control has easy buttons to navigate straight to them.

Come and see these units at our Lygon st. showroom and have a play on one yourself!

The Big Reds are a no compromise design by Dr Rod Crawford. With amplifiers built in that perfectly match not only the speaker but each individual driver. Normally, when we build up HiFi systems that use a separate amplifier to power each driver, you're looking at a price tag of 10s of thousands of dollars. In this case you can get all of those benefits and more.

These Big Reds also boast an active crossover design that is handled by a separate box, the DEQX. This smart little box also adjusts for any discrepancies of each individual driver as well as those inherent in your listening room.

In whatever situation these end up in, they are sure to astound!

Van Den Hul's Crimson Stradivarius is a favourite in the CAV Reference System. It has also become a Superstar with our customers.

The Stradivarius variation of the Crimson cartridge uses a Pau Ferro wooden body but douses that in multiple layers of specialist laquer emulating the laquer used on Stradivarius string instruments. The sound is even more involving, natural and open than the straight Crimson XGW which only difference is the absence of this special laquer.

It is the easiest cartridge to pair with a range of gear. The Colibri range has astounding levels of channel separation but requires more precise matching with the rest of the gear.
