The 90's opening up almost by the hour - it was a little flat and 'grey' to start with but it's getting looser, more free with musical nuance and expression now.Quote:

Nice one, Richard. I do like the 'business-like' look of NVA gear and RD's approach (in most ways) to audio. Someday I must get a listen to his designs.

As of today...

That'll start a few chins wagging :scratch:
Haha, it must be an optical illusion, mate! :lol:
Marco.
Do you feel wobbly all over ? ;)
I made sure I put up a few crucifixes (or whatever you do when you invite the devil round) up before I brought it home. :D
It's a comparison I've been itching to do for ages.
And? Stop being such a teasing biatch... :lolsign:

All in good time young Skywalker. :smoking:Quote:

Akito B
I've popped my MC15 Super into the arm as I know the Akito doesn't really like the 103, and the MC15's a cracking cartridge (it's the Mk1 with boron cantilever etc).
I'm expecting something along the lines of: "good in its own way, but a different flavour from the 1210".
I know what I think. I did the comparison about 8 months ago, just to make sure I could write with authority on the subject ;)
However that was with a fully KAB-modifed 1210 and a slightly higher specified LP12.
Marco.
Absolutely, and the very reason I too want to do this aswell, to lay to rest some of my own suspicions/thoughts on the whole subject.Quote:
