THE MAVERICK HIFI SHOW - A SHOW LIKE NO OTHER! 25th October 2026, UK

 'Musings is very much looking forward to this year's Maverick Hifi Show.

It comes to you from the Maverick Hifi Forum and is unique in having over 40 enthusiast systems for you to listen to.  There will be a small number of commercial rooms and record sales to help cover costs, but the majority of rooms feature systems brought by enthusiasts to share with fellow enthusiasts.

From vinyl to streaming, valves to multiple power amps, from horns to panel speakers there'll be a lot of system combinations for you to hear, many of which can't be heard anywhere else - plus they're there to listen to music, not to sell you something! Only £10 on the door.

Full show guide here.

The show is on 25th October 2026 at the Barnsley Holiday Inn Express in Barnsley, UK near Junction 27 of the M1:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/qe6F6NQ8ePKmoUuh8

Tidsbury Passive Pre-amp

Linn AV5125 with active cards

Preparation For The Hifi Show 2015

Been thinking through what I would like to exhibit if given the opportunity at The Hifi Show in March 2015.  Many options and configs have lead to this. I wanted to go with as compact an Linn active system as possible, so it starts with a FiiO x3 and finishes with Katans. Shame the amp has to be so big, but there are active crossovers and 4 power amps in there.
