"Futureshop.co.uk" isn't just another online store; it's a fantastic place to find audiophile-grade hifi accessories and more.
What I think truly sets "Futureshop.co.uk" apart is the exceptional staff. I've spoken separately with Mark and Geoff. They're not just friendly and honest; they're experts who genuinely care about helping you find the right products for your setup. No scripted responses or pushy sales tactics; it's a refreshing change to have knowledgeable folks who love what they do.
The standout here, for me (in terms of products I'VE tried), without a doubt, are the yellow QSA fuses (pictured - aligned in the CORRECT direction). Over a month, I picked up four of these little wonders, and they've taken my hifi setup to a whole new level. The improvement in sound quality is nothing short of magical – I'm tapping my toes and grooving to the music like never before. Well, as much as a 50 year old can, "groove".
The audioquest ethernet cable I got here is also a winner. With advice from Mark, I coupled this with a QSA (alright, alright, alright, yes I know, I'm a fan) yellow LAN jitter ethernet adaptor. It's like my internet connection got an upgrade – perfect for streaming high-quality music hassle-free.
So, if you're in the market for all things, hifi and want a reliable source with products that truly deliver, give "Futureshop.co.uk" a try. You won't be disappointed by the products or the people behind them.
Listing for the Tellurium Q Ultra Black interconnects showed that they dispatch within 24 hours. After placing order I was told that they are a special order and would be sent between 7-10 days. This should have been shown on the listing. Have purchased from Future Shop (usually Ultra Black Tellurium Q cable which was always in stock) in the past and found them to be reliable but felt let down on this occasion.
Excellent company, with excellent staff.
Unfortunately I have had to take a couple of stars away due to products advertised being out of stock, and only being notified after completing the purchase process.
The staff are very good at communicating alternatives, however it can be frustrating.

Website gives the impression that the item is in stock and delivery option of a next working day supports that impression when in fact the item is in order from the supplier and has still not arrived

Got requests to rate weeks before I got product. That’s poor. Took almost a month to get in the USA. Not worth it at all to save $20. Not maybe on them but at least be aware I don’t have product before asking me for gold stars. Priorities are completely wrong. Completely.

Brexit...
The product range is very wide and of high quality. The customer care is excellent.
Unfortunately, thanks to the Brexit, customs duties are much higher now and prices are no longer competitive. Too bad...

Dear Philip,
Thank you for your feedback via Trusted Shops, I am so sorry that you were asked for a quality review before receiving your order. Our system is tuned to ask for responses after the delivery of customer orders, my apologies on this occasion we were rather early.
We have checked with the distributors for an update and they have advised as this cable is specially ordered for the manufacturers the lead time is a little longer. These high-quality cables are made in smaller, highly quality controlled batches and do take a little longer to source.
Your cable will be provided from the latest possible stock and be the most current specifications and we are sure that you will be happy with it.
We will ensure that you get a dispatch confirmation and tracking number as soon as the order is with us and available for you. I have asked the team to ensure your order is despatched as a matter of priority.
Thank you for your understanding and patience,
With kindest regards,
FutureShop

Dear Andrew,
Thank you so much for taking the time to outline the issue, it's appreciated.
I understand that it may have been difficult for you to appreciate the size of the banana plugs capacity when you purchased them,
You are correct Audiophile-grade cables come in a variety of sizes, with a number of technologies, some very high-grade ones can be very thin and other manufacturers go for large conductors.
I have looked into the WireWorld banana plugs and these are usually suitable for cables with an internal conductor of 10 gauge, approximately 2.5mm square. For customers that require more than this, we can usually source banana plugs that can accommodate larger girths.
These plugs will take cables up to 10m2 - we recommend these for much thicker cables. They are at a higher price point.

https://www.futureshop.co.uk/wbt-0610cu-speaker-banana-plug-pair
I was wondering what cable you were using and if you know the size in mm if so, please let me know and I can find an alternative option for you, happy to do so.
Alternatively, you may want to send your cable to us and I would be happy to get our senior engineer to take a look and plot a solution for you,
Andrew, we are very happy to help you further, we would be happy to exchange your banana plugs for something more suitable or arrange a refund for you on return.
Please let me know your thoughts when you have a moment,
Kindest regards,
Future Shop.
