    I totally agree.
    The question is what will sound better. I am sure the suspension in my EPC-205 is on it's last legs.

    Anyway, we will find out soon, apparently there is a 1 to 2 week delay in shipping at the moment.

    Apparently it will ship on Friday.
    Add about another week for shipping - if it does not get intercepted by customs.

    The parcel is marked as being delivered.
    It looks like I have avoided customs charges, even though it was presented to them.

    Happy days....

    It should not, as the customs documentation they could have used was still intact on the Parcel.
    Normally, you have to pay before you get the goods here in France. They are quite efficient, as you receive an e-mail.

    My package spent less than two hours in customs.

    Anyway, the neo SAS is plugged in, and currently on duty. It sounds more HiFi at the moment, but it probably needs time to break in.

    I once got a fed ex parcel that the customs bill was paid by them and I was billed later. Dunno if this was usual but I thought it a nice touch.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Anyway, I am quite liking the EPC-U205 with the neo SAS fitted, probably more than my Shure M55 and Jico SAS combo.

    I am starting to wonder why I ever went down the MC route....
