You're not getting any twitches are you Chris?

Not really Mark!

I have asked my friendly dealer to keep an ear open in case a used example or even an ex-dem might hove into view. Going to another member's place on Saturday week who has all the goodies and a TT to boot. Note to self - vinyl not an option!

I refer you to my recent aural experience of 500 over 300 West Norfolk goes East and finds and open window

Right arm? That'll do nicely, sir...

Already duly noted James! It's a bloody conspiracy!

Comments about the 552, accurate as they are, don't mention that very important attribute: TRANSPARANCY.

After 10 years with a 52, the 552 came like a breath or fresh air.

However, although I love my C/B 135s, I am undecided about how much a step-up it would be to go to the 300 or 500.

My (big ProAc) speakers are a benign load and easy to drive; would the 300 represent the better option. I wonder?

Mike!

With 300/500 you'll know how transparent the 552 really is!

The better option is the one you'll like the best in your system, I guess you need a home demo.
But for sure you can't go wrong with the 300
