    Hi folks

    Bought a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon off you this time last year and delighted with it but looking to upgrade my crappy setup. Looking at the Wharfedale 9.1s and 220s, the Q acoustics 3010, Monitor Audio MR1s, open to recommendations.

    Also looking at a receiver to go with the above, had hoped to get an AV receiver but looks like their a bit out of my price range this time. I see in UK store theres a Yamaha RXV381 for £150 i could stretch to but seems its in store only, hardly anything similar available in the Irish store?

    If not open to suggestions for an amp for the speakers. Thanks

    Apologies for the delay getting back to you BF Madness!

    we DO have the same deal available on the Yamaha RXV381 at £149 / €169 but it is the same as the UK stores an In-store only deal as stocks are limited ( but we do still have stock today!)

    ...However for not much more than the 381 price you will get a FAR better amp for your system - I'd strongly recommend a dedicated stereo amp over an AV receiver if the Carbon is your main source.

    If it was me I would look at either the Marantz PM5005 at £169 / €199:

    Or stretching it a little the Onkyo A9010 which is a brill stereo amp:

    On the speaker front you are on the right track but if you could stretch to the Monitor Audio Bronze 2 that would make a huge difference:

    The Bronze 2 are currently reduced to £279 / €299 but we can do the following packages for you this weekend:

    Monitor Audio Bronze 2 / Marantz PM5005:
    £299 / €349

    Monitor Audio Bronze 2 / Onkyo A9010
    £319 / €379

    Honestly they are mega deals and will expire on Monday - Keep us posted :)

    Thanks for the reply John. Think I’ll go with the onkyo and bronze 2s. How do I go about ordering that and how much is delivery to Ireland? Thanks again.
