    HA - very good...! Dunno about "fads"; many of the recommendations I've given here have been taken up and enjoyed by 100s, if not 1000s of people worldwide, and continue to do so to this day, the modded Techy, Raspberry Pi and optimising DL-103s, being but three!

    And besides, that wasn't the point. I'm not the one plagued by a persecution complex and mania for shilling, giving me a propensity to treat everyone as an 'enemy'/'scammer', or think that they have some ulterior motive, simply because their (in reality innocent) behaviour doesn't fit with my insular and blinkered world view.

    Anyway, best leave it there, as we've moved on now from the mentalist antics of he who shall not be named!

    Marco.

    Not used these fuses, but refused (re-fused?) the entire system with hi fi tuning supremes (6 in the sanders, ouch) and enjoy the difference in sound.

    Got them from Analogue Seduction too, good guys to deal with.

    Regards
