    Nice comparison oliver...
    Did you use your OTP with the bursons in or the op amps that Alan supplies??
    Im thinking for an extra 60 quid i may ask Alan if its possible to sling some in mine while its back with him for the upgrades so its the best it can be upon return.
    Or is there not much in it?

    He used the standard ones. In my opinion the Bursons raise its game. I don't want you to spend £60 on my opinion though! I have them in mine and I like them.

    I don't think 60quid is that much of an issue realy if it adds a bit more. Il have a word with alan and if he also thinks they were slightly better than I will see if he will go for it... the way I see it is if I'm sending it all the way back then I may aswell get it returned in the best possible performance it can be as my speakers and amp are next on the list for upgrade.

    I posted that I rated the NVA 2 highly in a separate bit and it's gone?

    There are no deleted posts on this thread, so I don't know what happened there.
