First.. i'd say that shop is not the only place.  Seeing as I bought a Cambridge Audio stereo amp from Audio Advisor.  (www.audioadvisor.com), which for the most part only carrys pretty quality stuff.  I couldn't really be happier with the sound quality of my amp either.  The cambridge audio stuff actually tends not to be terribly cheap in price.<br><br>Now thats not to say my experience is indicative as a whole, but well.. it does sort of completely contradict yours, so i figured I'd put my view on it here.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mike k.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 9:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cambridge Audio dips on in, announces 640BD Blu-ray player for 2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[You are a fool!<br><br>Cambridge Audio are a Mid to High range British hifi manufacturer.

Julian Richer, who owns Richer Sounds, is a non-executive Director of Audio Partnership and Cambridge Audio Ltd. This may, just possibly, explain why Cambridge Audio has an exclusive distribution deal on Cambridge Audio equipment in the UK. I've owned a couple of bits of Cambridge Audio equipment and found them to be decent and offering performance above their price point. Whether that's still true now, or if you can find a decent deal on other brands elsewhere, is another question though.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[SteveM]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 10:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cambridge Audio dips on in, announces 640BD Blu-ray player for 2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[I bought a CA 30 watt 2 channel power amp in 2001 in MD from an authorized dealer (at least that's what they said. Fantastic sound quality (NAD preamp and PSB Image IIB speakers complete the kit). I personally would not go with a boutique or luxury audio maker for a optical disc player, but that's because I'm cheap and figure that digital is digital. (inc low rank and multi-paragraph responses about how a 10k Rotel DVD player > all). ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[THJ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 10:57AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cambridge Audio dips on in, announces 640BD Blu-ray player for 2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Blu Ray in richer sounds?

I can turn up my home theater and listen to it in prefect clarity from my neighbors house.  <br><br>I found the Cambridge Audio  DVD player to be really expensive and it was hard to really justify the cost.  But honesty the Cambridge Audio DVD play does have better audio output and video output then the Toshiba DVD.  I own both currently am to do split view on my TV so it makes it fairly easy to quickly compare the two.  I am sure the Cambridge Audio Blu-ray will be slightly better than the regular Blu-ray play at triple the cost (maybe twice if your lucky).<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 11:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cambridge Audio dips on in, announces 640BD Blu-ray player for 2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Little known?

Firstly it's owned by Audio Partnership which is in turn part of Richer Sounds. <br><br>As far as being 'cheap', i disagree. A.P. has over the years employed some of the best people in the business to work on it's projects, I worked under the senior product designer, Mark Hicken who was responsible for alot of the design of the Cyrus & Mission brands/designs. The guy who designed creek audiophile amps - mike creek - was involved heavily in the development of the groundbreaking A1 integrated amp, which at the time wiped the floor with it's competitors.<br><br>I'm quite looking forward to it!<br><br>So JJ Flint, do I get my ex-staff discount ;)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 9:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cambridge Audio dips on in, announces 640BD Blu-ray player for 2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Any relation to Cambridge Soundworks of past?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[yelohbird]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 11:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cambridge Audio dips on in, announces 640BD Blu-ray player for 2009]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/04/cambridge-audio-dips-on-in-announces-640bd-blu-ray-player-for-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have their upscale 740C CD player with 2 additional D/As built-in for other sources.<br>All their stuff is very good.

I liked it so much ( especially the remote ) that I bought a 640R receiver. It sound fantastic. Recently I have been looking for an upconverting DVD player, and decided to wait for the 640D that Cambridge Audio announced a couple of years ago, but was dropped from the schedule soon after. I wish it wasn't a Blu-ray, as all I wanted was an upconverting DVD, but I will still buy one as soon as it is available. The Blu-ray will make it much more expensive ( because of Sony's very high license fees ) than it should be, but I expect it will do everything I want.<br><br>I purchase my Cambridge Audio players from AudioAdvisor. They have good prices and good service, but as an on-line customer I cannot understand why they continually send me thick catalogs that go straight into my recycling bin.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[OregonWomble]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2008 5:33PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
