Re: NVA v Teddy Pardo

I have spoken to Applemarc and will collect the amp in the near future. Have just ordered some speaker cable from the Doc so could have an "interesting" start to 2015. I'm very much looking forward to dipping my toe in the water.

Re: NVA v Teddy Pardo

Sadly, Shane's cables are too short. I could buy some from the Doc then return them for a refund but that would be naughty. :whistle:

Re: NVA v Teddy Pardo

Applemarc, that is a very generous offer. I think that I can stretch to some bottom of the range speaker cable so that I can get started with NVA. My speakers are Naim IBLs which are very marmite. I would of course be willing for you to borrow the Teddys in return. I'm in Billericay so only a few mi...

NVA v Teddy Pardo

Having recently purchased a Phono 1, I am very pleased with the performance. The only problem is having tried a NVA product, I now have an urge to hear the amps. It's not possible for me to put several hundred quid "up-front" at the present time and I don't want to sell the Teddy, purchase...

Phono 1

Having used a Rega Fono for a year, I decided that it was time for an upgrade. The biggest problem was deciding what to buy. If you look on the web, every phono gets a good review. As a Teddy Pardo dac and amp user I should have gone for his phono stage. The only thing which stopped me was a relativ...

Re: JAMMY

As a newbie who has read a few of Jammy's posts, let me throw my hat into the ring. Jammy is funny. His posts make me laugh and are always worth reading. He seems to me to be a bloke who wears his heart on his sleeve, says it as he sees it and knows a bullsh*tter when he sees one. However, I did rea...

Re: Introduce Yourselves

As I'm the new boy I had better introduce myself. My name is Mike. I was a Naim user for nearly 30 years and then discovered Teddy Pardo and now own the full T.P. dac and pre/power combo. I have heard NVA and that was at a show back in the 80s. I liked what I heard but being a Linn/Naim junkie my he...
