Our Avid brand launch is only a few weeks away.....
How the presentations will work The aim of the event will be to demonstrate just what difference the Turntable itself makes to the performance of the system. To help make this point, we will be running the three Avid turntables, the Diva SP, Sequel and Acutus. These three turntables will be set up using SME 309 Tonearms and Ortofon 2M Blue cartridges. All of the turntables will use the same ancillary equipment - the Bryston BP26 Pre-amplifier, Bryston 4BSST2 Power Amplifier and PMC Twenty 26 Speakers. Throughout the demonstration the only variable will be the turntable itself. 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. We have used this demonstration concept previously & it has always proved enjoyable for all that attended.
RSVP Demonstrations will be held on Friday 10th of April and Saturday the 11th of April, at 11am, 1pm & 3pm - we suggest that you contact us to ensure there is available space. Please note that once demonstrations have begun we avoid interrupting them. This is to ensure that the demonstrations run as smoothly as possible. Please contact us to arrange an appointment!

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.
