[Alex_UK]

Ha ha - he finally found a buyer! :lol:

[The Grand Wazoo]

You're welcome Dave - you've got Alex to thank for it. The little tinker shilled the shit out of it & made me buy it against my will. It was only after undergoing hypnotherapy, aromatherapy, acupuncture and a slap round the face with a rolled up copy of Private Eye that I came to my senses and realised I didn't have to live in the same house as it.
You're gonna love it!

[synsei]

The missus hates it too so the positive vibes are still taking a battering... :rfl:

[Barry]

A huge thank you to Barry for selling me his SME arm and for getting it to me speedily and safely.

[Marco]

Just wanted to say thanks to Scott (Scott Nangle Audio) for his exemplary service in supplying me with one of the limited edition 45 RPM vinyl Doors box sets, which I'm absolutely delighted with.

Scott's communication was prompt, professional and attentive, throughout the transaction, which is just how I like it and how things should be done! The box set arrived superbly packaged (he'd obviously spent considerable time ensuring that it arrived to me in the same mint condition as it had left him) :)

I cannot fault any aspect of my dealings with Scott. I look forward to putting much more business his way in future, and so would not hesitate to recommend his services to others. Buy from him with confidence, folks. Cheers, Scott! :cool:

Marco.

[Puffin]

Francy, thanks for your kind words. It was good to see parts of Battersea I had not seen in over 30 years. In some ways it hadn't really changed at all, but perhaps just grown up a little.....unlike me:D

I will be interested to see your review.

Rob.

[Krisbee]

Another thankyou to Jerry, whose CDs arrived in mint condition earlier today.

[Canetoad]

Hi,

I'd just like to tell a tale of excellent service from one of the members/traders on this forum.

Ages ago I bought a Moth RCM off David Brookes (MCRU) and it sat in the corner for ages before I finally got around to building it. I found the kit was missing the support for the end of the vacuum tube so I contacted David and asked about sourcing one. This was over the Easter break and he was on holidays at the time. He sorted it for me and I received the part direct from Moth about a week later.

I know David cops some stick here for his enthusiastic approach to selling his wares, but you can't fault his service. Thanks David. Much appreciated! :)

[Phil Bishop]

Steve (macsiemus) thoroughly recommended seller :-)

Nice CA phono stage, bargain price and great service.

Thanks Steve.

Another compliment to another exemplary seller and new AOS member, "Friendly".

Bought his M2Tech Young Dac + Linear PS from Gwyn, and it was a pleasure to deal with him.
Great comms, immediate dispatch upon payment. Had a nice chat on the phone too where he was happy to answer a couple of questions I had about the Dac.

One of the good guys, deal with confidence. :)

Good to meet you today, I hope you and/or Dave enjoy the Diamonds

[synsei]

Thank you

[Alex_UK]

Good to meet you too Roy, and sorry I couldn't stay longer and chat more. I loved the fact that we could see 3 full setup systems from where we were chatting in your "man cave"!

[Roy S]

I loved the fact that we could see 3 full setup systems from where we were chatting in your "man cave"!

But to be fair only two of the systems had turntables attached (got to keep a sense of proportion!) Cheers Alex.

Many thanks to Simon Si74 for the Zeta arm, very well packed and better than described.

Thank you

Cheers Nigel,

Hope you enjoy the arm and a pleasure doing business with you:)

[dahdit]

Hello all

Really pleased that I bought a modded Caiman from Gazjam - top bloke, very helpful and patient. The kit was in great condition and very well packed and he threw in the stock PSU which wasn't part of the sale.

I'm starting to stray into upgrading my system and this was just what the doctor ordered as a first step. He's a credit to the forum and I'm inclined to buy with confidence after this.

On that point the Caiman feeds a Cambridge Audio A1 and Rogers LS4a speakers. I like the speakers and I think that the amp could be a weak link for now - hard to tell though - it could be either. I enjoy my system most listening to acoustic guitar and singer or small jazz ensembles, nothing to 'busy' - what I have can sound a bit muddied when things get busy.

I've hankered after a Quad 303 (using the Caiman as a preamp) and have heard they generally match well with Rogers speakers (albeit my low end ones). Any other suggestions? An old Nait? Probably looking for something up to £300.

Maybe this is for another thread? Perhaps I shouldn't detract from my praise of Gazjam?? His MCRU server is something I have my eye on for the future by the way.

[walpurgis]

Big thanks to Puffin (Rob), for the Genesis cables sold to me at a great price and promptly sent. Great communication too!

[Puffin]

You're welcome:cool:

[Gazjam]

Hope you get as much pleasure out of the Beresford Caiman as I did Steve.
The medical linear PSU takes things up a notch again.

Always good to welcome a new AOS member with a sale! :)
Stress free transaction - the best kind.

[Barry]

Enormous gratitude to Ian (IHP) for the Radford amp he sold me the end of last year.

Despite completing the transaction in December, it was more convenient to have it collected in March/April this year, and here I must thank Marco for his help in this matter and for actually collecting the amplifier for me.

The amplifier is in perfect working and cosmetic condition and I'm delighted with it. Plenty of fun to be had now with tube rolling and on deciding which load impedance setting is best for my Quad 57s.

As you can imagine, I'm a very happy bunny!

Many, many thanks Ian.

[Marco]

Glad to hear that it was worth the wait, Barry! :)

Marco.

[The Grand Wazoo]

Wooooooo-hoooo - round two of the amp-olympics at Barrington Corner!

[Spectral Morn]

[Barry]

Many thanks to Tony (Little Tone) for the CDs he sold me. Unbelievably well packed and with very reasonable postal charges, I'm delighted.

Over five hours of new listening for me tonight! :)

Thanks again.

[guyhayton]

Great dealing with James (istari_knight) who sold me a fully serviced Arcam Delta 60 amplifier. Good communications, well packaged and delivered according to plan.

First impressions are excellent and the work to my ears sound worthwhile and probably means this amp may keep going for another 20years. There could even be a chance it sounds better than new :)


Just so you know the Delta 60 had all its capacitors replaced with high quality Panasonic variants, reservoir capacitors replaced with Nichicon, coupling capacitors upgraded to film type, new silver plated relay, new Alps volume pot. Its good for 80wpc with a quality phono stage built it aswell...

Huge thanks to Dave (hifi_dave) for supplying me gratis with some QED 79 speaker cable.

[walpurgis]

Big thanks to Allen (Audio Al) for buying my Dual TT it was a prompt and painless transaction.

And also for putting up with the disgraceful state of the 'walpurgis den' (finished re-polishing my Ditton 15s by the way).

[quadsugdenman]

Had a trip down to Welwyn today to pick up a Technics 1210 MkII from Mark. It was good to meet such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable gentleman. Listened to the TT through his system and he let me listen to my 'Best of the Crusaders" album as a tester! Excellent, I wished I could have stayed longer but the Fuehrer was already barking orders to go on manoeuvres in the garden with the mower!!!:whippin:
Thanks Mark. Great system, beautiful home. Hope I can return the favour some time.

Sadly I must report that Scott (trading as Scott Nangle Audio) has let me down badly and proven to have very poor customer service. I ordered 13 SACDs on 15th April and since then have received every excuse as to why they never arrived. I asked repeatedly for shipping details and tracking number and received evasive replies. I was told repeatedly that they were shipped (apparently in two packages) but never saw them and never received any hard information such that I could attempt to trace them.

When I had finally had enough and asked for my money to be returned on 20th May it took a further 10 days and a threat of legal action to receive the funds back into my account. Again I had the same excuses, including 'the funds never left my account', whatever that means.

All of this could be forgivable if Scott's communications were good, but sadly I had to do all the chasing and phoning at every step of the process. I am patient and can forgive a start-up business a few hiccups, but this went very much further than that.

I cannot in all honesty recommend Scott's business and will not be using him again.

What a silly fart that Scott. Sorry to hear about this, Martin :steam:

[Marco]

Indeed... I was very disappointed to hear of Martin's experience with Scott, as earlier in this thread I'd recommended his services, after having taken delivery of a copy of the new Doors vinyl box set and experienced excellent service from him, so the thought that my recommendation may have led to Martin, or anyone else's disappointment, after having also bought from Scott, is something that really frustrates and annoys me.

Anyway, hopefully highlighting this situation will encourage Scott to be more organised and professional in future. If not, we may consider removing his trade account, as we demand the highest standards of customer service at all times from our trade members.

Hopefully Scott will comment and offer some explanation in due course, and that his levels of customer service falling way below the standards we expect on AoS, was just a blip, and ensure that in future things will improve.

Marco.

[southall-1998]

Purchased an Arcam Alpha 10P from Kev.

Kev packed my Arcam 10P to a very high standard. All looking good and most importantly working well.

Good sale and communications.

Decent guy to deal with.

Happy to deal with Kev again.

Cheers!!!

Apologies for the late response! Turntable shelf arrived well packed and in good time, the gravity on it functions perfectly and my turntable has remained where I put it on there since I put it there ;-) so all good!

[Puffin]

Went to sunny Portsmouth today to meet with Bev (ninanina) and listen to her Klipsch she had for sale. Already set up when I got there and it was a very relaxed and pleasant experience. We did the deal and they are now mine. I will post a review in due course. Have a good holiday Bev. Rob.

Hi Rob
Thanks so much for your lovely feedback

I hope you enjoy the Klipsch as much as I did

Just bought a Locus Polestar USB cable from cotag. The transaction was smooth, item arrived in excellent packaging and as described. It was a pleasure dealing with cotag, excellent communications as well, buy from him with confidence.

Does "cotag" have a real name, Neil, or maybe just a very unusual one? ;)

Marco.

[Spectral Morn]

lol Marco his name is Mark. I used his AOS nickname, as folks buying from him will look for that first as there are I think plenty of Mark's about.

[The Grand Wazoo]

Here's a special vote of thanks to Martin (horace) who offered some bits and bobs to members, one of which I was lucky enough to snaffle - a HFN/RR Flux Dumper.
Thanks again, Martin - an extraordinary kindness, made even more so by your refusal to accept payment for the postage. If you've ever picked up a Flux Dumper and felt it's weight, you'll understand the significance of that!

Thanks a lot Martin, you're a star!

PS - As I type this, all of the flux in my system is draining into a large flux-proof container that I prepared earlier. I'll be taking it to the tip tomorrow, unless any of you folks can find a use for it. Taking a tip from Martin, I won't charge you for postage.

[Audio Al]

Thanks to Martin (horace)

for the tape switch

Very kind offer

[Barry]

..... If you've ever picked up a Flux Dumper and felt it's weight, you'll understand the significance of that!

I wouldn't recommend you try to use it to mop up stray flux from your Koetsu Chris. I don't think the Zeta arm has sufficient conterbalance compass!

[The Grand Wazoo]

I was actually thinking of using it to add a little mass to the Decca cartridge, Barry!

[Barry]

I was actually thinking of using it to add a little mass to the Decca cartridge, Barry!

No, don't do that Chris - the correct playing weight for the Decca IV is 3g not 3Kg!

[The Grand Wazoo]

It's a bit beyond balancing a penny on your headshell, admittedly - but why do things by halves, eh?!

[Barry]

My copy of Cream's 'Fresh Cream' could only be played on my first, Dansette-style record player if I placed a 2/- coin (that is, a 10p piece) on the headshell. Not surprisingly it didn't do the last track on each side much good! I quickly realised the most valuable items were the records themselves, so quickly invested in a Garrard SP25, followed within a year by a deck with an SME arm.

[Rare Bird]

I can report a pleasant and straightforward transaction with Paul (Reffc).

The mains regenerator was as advertised, and packed properly. I got a nice cup of tea and, more importantly, a chance to listen to Paul's Tannoys.

These are obviously a labour of love and are as beautiful to look at as they are to listen to. Paul has designed the cabinets himself and the cabinet work is exquisite. But the sound is to die for! He has spent hundred of hours voicing the speakers and I was treated to both LP and CD. I know "The Wall" by Pink Floyd well but there was stuff I was hearing for the first time. We also listened to some organ music and I have never heard a set of speakers which could handle the swells and resonances as well as this pair. So my top tip to anyone buying from Paul in future is to make the journey to pick up in person. Persuade him to make you a cuppa and put some music on. Just sit back and listen for yourselves.

I really am glad I decided to go and pick the regenerator up, rather than get a mate who has family locally swing by.

I had a very pleasant morning with Shane yesterday (Southall-1998) when I went to collect the Klipsch speakers he was selling. Had a good chin-wag about hifi and got to hear his fabulous system.

I had some time to play with them this afternoon. It is a great pity that one of the bass drivers has a problem as I think they are a great sounding pair of speakers. Mind you they need quite a lot of volume to make them sing, so again (in the same way as the KG3's) may be a difficult load despite being fairly sensitive. I have turned the problem bass unit to see if gravity will help align the voice coil. You can stop the distortion by applying pressure to the other side of the cone whilst music is playing.

I will do some googling, but I think that to re-align the voice coil you would have to remove the cone and pole piece dust cover. Quite a lot of work which would mean prising the rubber surround from the speaker casting so that the cone is floating. I will have to see if I think I am brave enough!

Thanks for a painless and pleasant transaction.

[Reffc]

I spent an enjoyable few hours this morning with Busybee330 (Bernard) who visited to audition (and buy!) my EAR amplifier. Bernard is a complete gent with good musical taste! It was a pleasure meeting and doing business with you Bernard.

[The Grand Wazoo]

You shouldn't have to remove the centre dust cover Rob.
If you can separate the cone surround from the frame, then you can apply some glue & then before it sets, send a small current via an AAA battery to the terminals for very short periods. This will cause the driver to pulse & if you repeat this a few times, the coil should centre itself within the magnetic field.
