Re: AVI vs...? bake off anyone?

why is that "notsosavvypaul" ? ;) Because attacking people who give you their feedback is a sure-fire way to put people off trying NVA. One look at some of the comments here will have 'em running for the hills. Doc's assertion that all feedback is welcome shows confidence and professional...

Re: AVI vs...? bake off anyone?

Doc's original statement that all reviews are welcome - good, bad or indifferent - is where this thread should have ended.

Re: NVA TSS prototype on EBay

Ebay couldn't give a toss, it is a thing, it is sold for a price. Their point is that if there is anything wrong in the description then they can do something. The thing here is there is nothing wrong with the description just information needed by the customer is missing, ebay don't care about tha...

Re: NVA TSS prototype on EBay

If you contact ebay to explain your concerns as the manufacturer re this prototype unit then they might contact the bidders on your behalf.

Re: NVA TSS prototype on EBay

Just shows what a crook he is to let people bid this high for something that is basically a door stop. I will contact the buyer as soon as it is established who it is and tell him, if I forget remind me when the auction finishes. Unfortunately, eBay won't show the full username of the buyer to anyo...

Re: Scam

Get caller ID display. Do NOT answer any number you don't recognise. Let it ring out, then Google it. If you answer, even just to tell them to go forth...the 'value' of your telephone number will go up, and they will call you more often and sell your number to other scammers. If you let the calls ri...

Re: What next for chap who has just found NVA?

So for the budget you have, the P20/A20/Cubette combination which will come with some with LS2 and sound pipe. I have that combination with a Chromecast and it will definitely give you an good idea of what the NVA sound is. You could spend a bit more money on interconnects and speaker cable which w...

Re: What next for chap who has just found NVA?

Thanks everyone. Given my current set up, starting with cables seems like a no-brainer. I will be ordering an SSP and set of LS6. Thanks again, Paul Superb choice Paul. You will not be disappointed. I am going to upgrade to LS6 myself next week. The SSP are truly superb ICs. I cannot wait to read y...

Re: What next for chap who has just found NVA?

Where does the OP live? If near Bucks he is welcome to visit with his source components and music. My system foundation is pure NVA and will give you a good idea. I'm about 300 miles away in Durham...but thanks, anyway, for such a kind offer. Not too far from me, I'm on the North Yorkshire coast. H...

Re: What next for chap who has just found NVA?

Harbeths are a very benign load as a breed and sound delightfully lush as it is, so even LS2 would be a perfect cheap starter speaker cable even with the soggy-Sugdens! Just to warn you - I shall say this only once... Harbeth, Spendor, Graham and Stirling are devil-spawn on here. I know where you'r...
