If the Thumps are fit for purpose I could wait until I sell some surplus gear that I've got before I buy anything. It was really the VAT-free day that was pushing me into making a quick decision, but if we take it that the Altos and W Audio speakers aren't worth going for then I've got at least an extra few days before I need to think about doing anything.
