Highly recommend Willys Hifi. UK stock of a BST-1 at a great price. Well packaged. Fast dispatch. Thank you guys :)

Decided to take the plunge and upgrade rather than replace… so glad I did very simple to fit even let my 13 year old have a go at soldering one of the caps (under careful supervision) took about an hour a speaker and wow what a difference!!! All round improvement thank you

Brilliant capacitors, totally transformed my 40 year old speakers, Everything is now clean & controlled, Subtle details i never noticed before the service Willys gave is second to none. Thanks Willys.

alles bestens

Great from start to finish.

Just did the passive + capacitor upgrade on my 30 year old Linn Keilidhs. Took less than 2 hours total. Still breaking them in but I can already hear a big difference. The mods opened up the sound considerably. Eliminated the muddiness of some music I was hearing before. Not sure what did more the caps or the tweeters as I didn't test in-between. Very pleased with the upgrade.

Not easy to finally find replacement acoustically transparent foam for my old Castle Clyde speakers. Might ahve been good to have the sheet cut to size , but still a great step to restoring them .

I bought this driver because it was rated up to 2KHz. I have it paired with a big Horn and 2" Horn Driver. Both the Accuton and the horn are crossed over at 1.5KHz in my custom built tower speaker. They are bi-amped using two 45 watt tube amplifiers. The combined sound is very rich and smooth with superb imaging, the sound is so rich you can almost touch it. The Accuton has good, musical sound but it does not have explosive bass, at least at modest volumes.

I also have an Outlaw sub, but no sub can provide the musical bass lacking in some speakers. Eventually I plan on including a larger 10" Accuton Cell in parallel on the same 1.5KHz low pass circuit. It will be to supplement the 8.5" with a little more impact. These will be five to six thousand dollar speakers, cost to build, not retail.

The (first?) picture is of my protype tower speaker. It is made of 3/4" MDF. The second pic is of my Klipsch that I am using as a testing stage. The second prototype that I build will have the Accuton up higher as close to the horn as possible. I listen to the music standing up and having the drivers at ear level renders the best sound, impact and imaging. The imaging is superb even at different locations but of course there is one sweet spot where it is the best.

My mic was sent immediately.
Thank you

Used to replace the OEM caps in the LF path of crossover in a pair ofWharfedale Diamond 9.1s. Great upgrade and improvement to performance, measurably and audibly.

Willys are always prompt and efficient - with a pleasing selection of solid product.
In this case - I was surprised they still carry stock of what I thought was quite a rare part.
I'm happy they did.

I’ve been buying from Willys for a number of years now and I’ve never received less than a first class service. Items are well packed and always arrive within the agreed timescales. Highly recommended 😊

Really pleased with the quality.
The previous foam lasted 10 years in a sun kissed room.
I've no doubt these replacements will last just as long.

Very pleased.

Speakers were competitively priced and delivered promptly.

Fitted two sets to my B&O speakers. Installation with a 7mm hole was straightforward. Tip is to use a 45 degree chamfer once hole is drilled to allow fertile to be screwed in without damaging the surface grain. Very pleased with end result.

I bought two Dayton BST-1 units just to have a go at bass shakers, thinking I'll sell them on shortly afterwards. I had no hope of the effect being anything but gimmicky and I assumed it would become annoying relatively quickly, especially if the rumble was audible. I fitted them on two pieces of hardwood that I bolted onto the bottom metal frame of my sofa, one unit under each seat.

Now, two weeks later, I can't understand how I managed for so long without having bass shakers in my AV life. It's simply fantastic. I connected them in series to a Fosi Audio TP-02 subwoofer amp, itself fed by an AVR. It took me a little while to balance them properly and eventually found it easier to set the crossover on the AVR side, which was ok since my amplifier has discrete subwoofer outputs. Once set properly, the integration is truly striking. Not only the bass shakers make no perceivable noise whatsoever but they vibrate differently depending on the signal they receive. Watching Earthquake (with Charlton Heston), the vibrations made the disaster scenes incredibly realistic: the sofa started shaking as if the earth was moving! Th explosion at the beginning of Die Hard 3 hit quite hard, I felt it in my whole body. Yet, bullet and shell impacts from Fury feel very different, brief, sharp, without any lingering. Truly striking. Engage the subwoofers as well and the combination is absolutely fantastic and incredibly immersive. Disengage the subwoofers when the kids are sleeping and you still get the feeling that somehow they're still on, but without shaking the whole house. Remarkable. Yes, I know I'm a geek but now I wonder why it took me so long to even try them... Incredible when watching films, excellent when playing games. I wasn't so convinced when using them whilst listening to music, but that's just me, so don't let that put you off.

Finally, a word about Willy's Hi-Fi. Another striking example of: 'how come it took me so long to find you?'. I emailed at 10am to ask some questions about the BST-1; Will responded about 90 seconds later. I placed my order around 11am and received my parcel less than 24 hours later, perfectly protected by competent and conscientious packing. Willy's Hi-Fi will now be at the top of my go-to list whenever I'll be needing some new gear.
Groovy!

Nice Work to you at Willy's, it was really fast delivery and now my ATC speakers are playing again, best regards to all of you

Great, high quality product and delivered quickly!

Quick delivery despatched same day of order .
This speaker was purchased to replace the old 15 inch driver in a Realistic MACH2 which had been stored for 30 years and the rubber surround had disintegrated.
It is a perfect replacement for the original in fact it gives more bass and enhances the overall sound . Everything has been replaced on this speaker, including internal wiring , crossovers mid range speaker & terminal connectors on the rear. The only thing that remains is the original Tweeter.
The Dayton now gives a speaker really smooth base and I’m loving it even more than my B&W 802 d3 . Can’t recommend it enough and a good price too .
