Well this was a nice surprise after my adventures in Somerset and being treated like a man with the plaque by the press.
So thank you Hi-fi News and Mr. Paul Miller and Mr. David Price.

Is there any chance of anyone getting permission from Hi-fi News for their article on the Claymore being reproduced here, or on any other website, linked to from here? Or of Hi-fi News putting it on their own website, possibly at some point in the future?

If you want to read it now you will have to buy the magazine. I think it's a bit random which old reviews they put on their website.

Thanks Colin. I take it they interviewed you for this article since you are quoted?

Yes but they sill got a few silly wrong, The Claymore was made then for 240VAC and now we are 230VAC so the O/P would be lower I never used a transformer in the MC stage,

Not a bad re-review though, Colin. 83% is not to be sniffed at, especially as there was no "bung" involved. ;)

That would depend if the press in question had been dentists in a former life. :grin:
