hi,
part two:
peter c regards the oppo player pictured as a
good buy, compares very favourably to units
several times its price. forgot to ask about the
AN amp - uk edition, handsome too.

Very happy with my Oppo BDF-80.
Probably not the latest model, but I suspect it's mainly cosmetic.
On the other thread: "Exclusive Review Of Eco-fan Sound Pre-amp and Power amp" is a whole bunch of links to a good variety of music. Happy listening!

Have to admit I have been a lot more active on the preamp and power amp thread, but the products are coming out and amps, updated preamp power supplies, (and don't underestimate the effect of a decent power supply) etc are there, with new BSEA amps following in hot pursuit, although most of those are pre-sold.
I have decided that email has had it's day, what with pages of spam and even worse interference, so am now contactable as follows: You can bookmark later, but first Google: "Flickr Jack Williams."
Then you will get my photostream.
Just bring up any photo and in the top right-hand corner will be icon and a number.
That mentions how many messages are there. So I then click on that and there are the messages with 'Reply" box and NO SPAM.
Use this!

hi all,
worlds shortest audio review 2:
friendly west auckland hifi store (well known locally)
- kind enough to stock a few ecofan items in their
valve gear room.
i went in to try the bufferzone with a harmon/kardon
bluetooth receiver and my iphone.
plugged bta10 into buffer - then into yamaha
amp and floorstanders.
listened to some apple lossless and 320kbs mp3s
- made comparison with phone straight into amp.
with buffer and bluetooth - cleaner, clearer and
better soundstage. phone straight into amp resulted
in poorer separation and imaging with sound
relatively muddy and confined to area within speakers.
store has tried a number of bluetooth receiving units
and the h/k has the best reception range and the
clear advantage in sound quality - despite being around
nz$120.
handy bargain for second (non critical) system.
the yamaha floorstanders are not bad if not to
my taste.
pictures follow,
