Just pulled the trigger on some LS3 and SSP for digital duties, rude not to at those prices! Wish I was in the market for more, some great bargains for the big spenders, well done Doc.

Got to agree Fretless, latest London Grammar LP is getting some serious play time in our house, love Hannah Reid's voice, haunting.

Cheers!

Thanks for the quality pictures, some interesting designs and sounds like a good day out.
That linear power supply is of interest too, thinking of trying one on my Dac and that might fit the bill. Any chance of a link or make and please Doc, I am assuming from the pics it is yours?

The upgrade scheme makes that no financial risk, which is the great th...

Many thanks Doc, thought that might be the answer.
Interconnects are non NVA so will check out the EBAY listings to see what is in budget for now but trade in scheme means you can't loose. Will be sure to post findings when I go ahead.

So I don't post much on here (or at all on any other sites) but I have a mooch around the forum every day and can honestly say I have learnt a lot. Buying a house and starting a family put the brakes on hi-fi for a while but discovering NVA rekindled my interest and my budget set up gives great plea...
