HiFi News
Hey everyone, after taking a week off from the blog writing we’re back with a bang this week!
The idea is to give you an insight into our working week here at Fanthorpes HiFi. With what demonstrations we are doing in store and in customers’ homes, services we offer, as well as give you an insight into the distances we travel over a working week.
If we’re in your area and want to listen to something, let us know and to see if we can pop round and see you.
Hope you enjoy the read…
Monday 23rd April
Our working week gets underway with a service call to Huddersfield in West Yorkshire, this is a customer who has previously bought a pair of PMC Twenty 26 speakers but needs a bass driver replacing. So, we’re jumping into our van, bringing the new bass driver to him and swapping the faulty one out.
Tuesday 24th April
Tuesday sees our install team split into two. First up we head just south of the River Humber to Barrow on Humber to retrieve a Project Xtension 10 that isn’t working as it should. We are leaving our demo Xtension 10 with the customer, while his is serviced. The customer is also considering upgrading his phono stage, so we are bringing along a few options for him to listen to.
While this is going on, our other installer will be on the motorway heading down to Southgate, London to set up a fantastic streaming system. This customer has opted for the Devialet 130 Pro and Innuos Zen Mini.
Wednesday 25th April
Another day on the road awaits, this time a venture down to Ipswich to install a pair of KEF Reference One standmount speakers.
Thursday 26th April
The travelling continues for us this week, this time to a ‘local’ customer based in York. This customer owns a fantastic system already that consists of a Devialet 1000 Pro, ProJect Signature 10 deck on a pair of Martin Logan speakers. He is looking to add a new streamer to his set up, so we are bringing along the Innuos Zenith for him to audition.
Friday 27th April
Friday, we have a big KEF Reference demo booked in. This customer called us to see if they could listen to the KEF Refence 5 speakers, on the Bryston BP26 pre and 4B3 power amp alongside the Chord Electronics DAVE DAC and Innuos Zen music server. A fantastic high end HiFi system we can’t wait to set up.
Saturday 28th April
To close the week, we have a Hull customer who would like to hear a Sugden IA-4 integrated, so we are popping to see him and setting the amplifier up alongside his PMC Fact 8 speakers.
