A big thank you from newbie Jazid to ColinB and David (Clothears). I bought respectively an Icon Audio PS1 and a Goldring 1042 to replace my P77 and NAD 3020 'phono stage'. Yup, massive, massive improvement - as expected but sweeter. The cart and phono stage are both in superb condition, both guys couldn't have been more helpful, so really a big thanks to you both!

Big 'Thank You' Mike.

No problem, guys, thanks for the shout! ;)

Must thank Mike (the 'alien') for the Sony CDP XB-930 player he sold me recently.

Superbly packed, it arrived promptly (via the auspices of Parcel Force) in perfect condition. Indeed it is in absolutely mint condition - not a mark anywhere!

It has just replaced my dependable and beloved CDP XB-720E, and on initial listening would seem to be a noticable improvement. Will report more fully later, once the player has 'bedded in' and I have played around with external DACs (not that I am expecting much, if any, improvement) and digital cables.

The XB-930 has the laser integral with the CD drawer. This is the first player I have used which has this sensible arrangement. It might explain why things seem to sound a little clearer.

Again many, many thanks Mike - I'm one very Happy Bunny! :)

Hi Barry,

Glad to hear it arrived in good condition and I hope you'll be happy with it.
Incidentally, if you didn't know already, there are some 'hidden features' that can be displayed on the front panel.... you can turn it into a 'jitter meter' and suchlike!

Have fun.... :)

Thanks to Rob (puffin) for the TT, many hours of fiddling coming i forsee

Thanks to Martinh for a great & smooth transaction buying the Neat Motive 2's :)

Thanks Dan,

The Neats are exactly as described, transaction was smooth and delivery fast.

Best of all they sound great - even my wife likes them, so thumbs up all around!

Cheers,

Martin

Big shout out to Dan (hifilover) for the DVD's. They arrived well packed and in first class condition... :cool:

Many thanks to Dave (clothears) for the knock on the door I got just now as the postie delivered a rather lovely looking copy of Muddy Waters - 'Folk Singer'. One of my favourite albums of all time, & now I've got to go out & I'm going to have to wait till this evening to play it - buggerit buggerit buggerit!

Thanks a lot Dave, for a very good and smoothly dealt with transaction for an extremely fair price.
Cheers
