    Hi lads,

    As a previous customer for a package back about 5 years ago (I got Dali Zensor 1 and Onkyo CRN755 for £350), hoping you can do me a deal on this package:
    Marantz MCR611 and DALI Zensor 3

    Hi Kenny,
    Any chance you can throw in some speaker cable for it too?

    Ah we couldn't do 3 metres - we could deffo do 2 metres though ...

    ( Done - £539 including shipping and 4 metres of Cambridge Audio Symphony 100 speaker cable :)) 

    ...But would you not be better off with the MCR611 and the Monitor Audio Bronze 2 package - its just £479 which is a killer price and TBH I think it sounds way better - inc shipping and 4 metres of Symphony 100 cable you are at £489 - saving you £40 ( which yuo could buy a decent pair of headphones with :) )

    Hi John, cheers for offering the alternative. I'm just looking to upgrade the Zensor 1s really, then I'm giving them to my bro. You reckon the Bronze are better than the Zensor 3 then?
    Also open to alternative to the receiver. it just needs to have DLNA, airplay, DAB, optical input etc

    Another question, can this receiver handle the speakers? Seems to be 50W output, the speakers are 100W. So I wouldn't get the full capability of the speakers?

    Hey Phunkadelic.

    Both the Bronze 2 and Dali Zensor 3 could run on a much better amp. The wattage rating is really only how loud they will go.
    The 50W out put of the MCR611 is still pretty loud.

    Either will sound fantastic with the MCR611.

    Hi Kenny,

    Any idea if the Onkyo RN855 has DLNA? Your spec says no, but it has just about every other type of network connectivity. Other sites list it as having DLNA.

    Hi phunkadelic,

    I've checked Onkyos website and they don;t list it as having DLNA. From what I can gather you can connect via apps such as Airplay or Chromecast but not with a direct wifi connection:

    Let me know what you think.

    Kind regards

    Cheers David, what kind of price would you do on the RN755 and the Monitor Bronze 2? It's not one of the standard packages on your site.

    Hi Phunkadelic.

    The RN755 is not one that we normally stock. Its not even listed in our stock file.

    I will need to check if we can supply it and at what price.

    There is usually no room for movement on price  on special orders.

    Once I can get an answer/price I will post back.

    Hey Phunkadelic.

    The RN855 with the Bronze 2 retail at £728.00
    I could offer at £700 delivered and I could also throw in 3 or 4 meters of speaker cable free.

    Let me know what you think.
