Until a couple of months ago I'd never heard of AoS, and my hi-fi upgrade/purchasing route was dictated by a well known (now) TV magazine.
Since discovering AoS not only has my upgrade/purchasing route changed you've also managed to save me money and improve my listening pleasure out of all recognition. My next purchase was to have been a Marantz PM6004 to complement my Marantz CD6003, however, a local hi-fi shop had mentioned a DAC as the next suggested upgrade. It was whilst Googling DACs that I became aware of AoS through the rave reviews for Stan Beresford's Bushmaster. I 'signed up' and reading the threads was enough to convince me that I wanted one - I promptly bought one, and have been blown away with the it. More thread reading brought Mark Grant to my attention, and on his advice I have just taken delivery of a 1m Supra Trico with Eichmann Silver Bullet plugs (alloy body) and I haven't stopped smiling all weekend!
All for far less than the cost of a PM6004 - and I suspect far, far more improvement in SQ!
