The Paradise is a very good top notch phono stage. I think that Simon said that he could make a Paradise for £1500 as a DIY project, when the boards were still available. Realistically, if the Paradise were a retail product, this would make the RRP more than £5000, allowing for manufacturer and dealer margins plus the dreaded VAT.

Yes, mine is in one of the four box configurations (as is Mick's). It doesn't actually have to be in so many boxes, but the overall size won't be that much smaller.

I think it's worth noting that the Convergence is Tron's entry level design and there are a number of more sophisticated (and expensive) models in the Tron range. However, for a £1,000.00 the Convergence is very good.
