I do Simon and I will.
I should have all the 430-450 whittled out now so that's the easy part done then. ;)

Results not as good as expected.
150 337 in the 430-450 range
50 327 in the 430-450...

I think I'll wait for the final selection before going to those lengths.
2000 curves might be a bit too much, even for my OCD. ;)

No problem Peter,

I'm sure you'll find a good home for the set which I can confirm works beautifully on the Techie.

Hi Peter,

I'm interested in the BR-1 on its' own if you'd be willing to split.

Thanks,
Martin

Sure.
It might be a while though.
I'm not renowned for my blistering pace. ;) :hotrod:

Back at it.
Finishing up the first pass through the BC-337.
So that's 1000 each BC-337 and BC-327 filtered for 400-450 range.

So...
What do we do with all these thousands of BC-337 and BC-327 with hFE < 400 or hFE > 450? :scratch:

From the 4000 you sent to Simon! :ner:

Simon,

Is that a HiFi-2000 / Modu case?
I was looking for a full size Alu case to house the dual PSU but can't find one exactly like I want.
Can either find the size I want in steel or smaller...

That's either an enormous tube socket or you have tiny hands! ;)

IMPOSTER!!!



:popcorn:

I'm staring at a similar box of bits myself.
I need to push on and sort out a rear panel for the PSU enclosure.

My motivation...

dCS Elgar
Audiolab 8200 CDQ
Audiolab MDAC
M2Tech young DSD

There are many others but these are the ones that I've personal experience of.
If you only use digital sources the Elgar is...

Fancied trying one of these back when I had the Luxman SQ38u but never got around to it.

Now that the big Lux is gone I don't think there's any way I could integrate it with the Devialet so will...

Hmmm....
I know these sound great but do they make good toast?

I've heard a pair of these sounding great with Densen amplification.
It might be worth trying if you get the opportunity.

You must be starting to get good at building these at this stage Simon. :eyebrows:

I'll give the little Pro-Ject CD-Box SE a plug.
I used one as a transport feeding a dCS DAC and it was excellent.

Quiet in operation, lovely clear display, read every disc I tried and a pleasure...

Mmmm....

It's a power inverter from a TV or Monitor.

Loving the 737 Jerry.

I bought one of them new in the late 90s and would still have it today if the laser hadn't failed.
Great sound quality and one of the best backlit remotes ever.
The Arcam...

That looks really excellent.
I've been sorely tempted by the plinth for quite a while.



Think Luxman perhaps. :)
SQ-38u for valves and L505u for solid state.

Both have excellent phono...

Price includes delivery to Mainland UK or Ireland via a tracked and insured service.
Sorry, but not looking for any trades or PX at this time.

A change in direction means that this stunning dCS Elgar & Purcell combo is up for sale.
In excellent condition and fully functional this remains one of the most revealing and musical DACs I've...

Considering they can be had for £80ish these days I'd rate them a lot better than 'not bad' in the sound per pound stakes.

The early ones were available in both black and chrome.
The later ones have a series of lights around the volume control which gives them away.
