    just an update here, amp and cd player are from cyrus 8 range...so, speakers, will they match..?

    also, what about speaker cables and interconnects..?

    Do Pro-Ac do a floorstander at £600? I thought their cheapest was the studio 125 at £1k?

    Presumeably your mate will be demoing the speakers in his room with his system, but if he wasn't planning too he definitely should with Pro-Acs. In my limited experience I find that their bass is very full sounding, and in many rooms there seems to be an obvious bass peak that might not be to everyone's tastes.
