FoS In Car Video - Play It Loud!

Just thought I would upload this in car video of our Sunday morning run up the hill, unfortunately by the time we got to go up my forward facing camera battery had died so all we had was the camera facing me. Watching it back it is amazing to see how many people there are as when driving you don't see one single person as you are so focused on not getting it wrong and crashing, always a relief getting to the top. The gearing is all wrong really in the car, more geared up for 200 mph+ n

Goodwood Festival of Speed 2023 Photobook!

Hi All, Just thought I'd post a few pictures from Goodwood FoS a couple of weeks ago, I actually could post loads but have restricted myself to a handful. Firstly it is a real honour to be one of a select few to be invited to drive up the hill at Fos, for those who don't know this years event was to celebrate 30 years of FoS so was a big one, unfortunately the weather didn't want to play ball with Friday being very wet, Saturday actually cancelled due to high winds but Sunday we got a

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to share this really lovely install from yesterday, been looking forward to this one for a while, DeVore Fidelity Orangutan O/96 speakers with the Western Electric 91E amplifier all hooked up with Atlas Arran cables, the finish on the O/96’s looks stunning and the synergy with the 91E really is one of the best I’ve ever heard, amazing depth, width, separation and a insight, just sounds so right, I’m a little smitten, as was the customer, I think he’s going to be spe

PMC Prodigy 1 and 5 Speakers Now On Demo, Incredible for their Cost!

Hi Everyone, It was just a quick blog to say that we have spent this week getting some hours on our new demo PMC Prodigy 1 and 5 speakers, these are intended to be a new entry point for HiFi enthusiasts who want a pair of PMC's but the Twenty5i range is just a little out of reach, I have to say I am blown away how good these speakers are, regardless of cost, the fact that the Prodigy1's come in at £1250 and the Prodigy5's are £1995 beggars belief a little in all honesty. Obviously we a

Cool piece of Lotus History!

DeVore Fidelity O/baby Speakers Now on Permanent Demo, Stunning!

Hi All, I really don't know what the DeVore Fidelity magic is but there really is something special with their speakers, I don't think I've ever had a reaction to any speakers we have bought on over the last 10 years+ that I have with the DeVore Orangutan O/96 speakers, they have been universally loved by everyone that has listened to them, being that HiFi is such a personal thing that is really saying something. So as I look to bring on their whole range of DeVore speakers for demo, y

What a Race at Barber Motorsports Park, Quite Possibly My Best Race Yet!

Hi all, Just a quickie as I wanted to share lasts night race at barber motorsport, unfortunately iRacing have totally screwed up the radical SR10 that we have been racing for a couple of seasons so we have reverted back to the trusty ol' SR8 which is an absolute joy to drive. This season we are doing a 2 race format, race 1 is a sprint then the top 10 finishing positions get reversed for race 2, race 1 was going well but an incident dropped me down the pack but I managed to fight back

A Very Cool Rega Planar 10 Install!

Hi Everyone, This is a real quickie with some pics from a Rega Planar 10 install I did the other day, I have often said that over the years we seem to have created a Petrolheads HiFi shop as many or our customers seem to have petrol as well and music running through their veins, well this install really seemed to prove that point, what a listening room, very cool indeed, I wonder if Wendy will let me put a car in the living room 🤔 Cheers, Paul.
