    They're in prototype form for testing and easy component changes,the bulbs will at some point be going,replaced by some thick film resistors,so please don't report me to the EU for running banned bulbs

    That's certainly a funky looking and imaginatively designed system. I really like it, bet it sounds most impressive.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Very nice!
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”
