We are thrilled to announce that we are the first UK dealers to be showcasing the AVID pre-amplifier and mono's at our in store AVID event (14th and 15th August).
AVID Reference Mono Power Amplifiers
Certainly big on size but more importantly its massive on sound quality.
Weighing in at approximately 65 Kg, 500 x 650 x 300mm in size its not just a big box, but packed with power.
A 2KVA bespoke mains transformer feeds the fully balanced design with over 600,000 micro farads of storage.Power output is an impressive 430W into 8ë© but more importantly is its capability to drive the whole frequency range.
To experience how speakers can really perform you need to listen for yourself, even if the å£45,000 price tag is out of limits, this is a free opportunity to remember.
The AVID Reference Mono Power Amplifiers will be at our exclusive UK AVID Amplifier launch event.
Demonstrations
We will be running the AVID Acutus Reference Turntable as the source, with the PMC MB2 SE Speakers- so bring a record and come down to store to hear it like you have never heard it before...
All of the demonstrations will be held by Conrad Mas, the designer of Avid, he will be on hand to answer any questions and to explain the design and philosophy of his brand. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet one of the modern Hi-Fi greats.

Ortofon’s MC X Series represents a new wave in high-fidelity vinyl playback. Building on the solid foundation of the Quintet range, this series introduces a more refined, high-performance line of moving coil (MC) cartridges—all designed and assembled in Denmark.
While the models share core design elements—such as a honeycomb stainless-steel body, silver-plated pure copper coils, and a refined magnet system—the key differences lie in stylus shape, cantilever material, and sonic character. These factors have a profound effect on how the cartridge interacts with the grooves and conveys the music.
Let’s break down the differences between the MC X10, X20, X30, and X40 to help you choose the model that suits your setup and listening preferences.
