Indeed, especially the latter. Any more news on that - has Shaun been in contact again?

I last e-mailed October 10th asking if before Xmas was a possibility, he replied to say they should be finished by end of November.Ok, so have you emailed him since we last spoke about the intended supplying of them before Christmas? What stage is the build at - has he shown you any pics?
Marco.
In July it was just the internal baffles that needed to be done, not had any pics.
Of course this was before second lockdown happened so probably all bets are off.

The Blackcat digital cables i mentioned earlier are BNC connector cables, sold with the makers own recipe rca adapters...he totally gets the 75 ohm standard, in fact brought his own to market in 1992.
One of those ‘fit n forget’ purchases, unless you don’t have any use for a digital interconnect anymore!
(hence me selling mine)
Given now good the Audiolab is, be daft not to buy one again.
Martin, if you want dibbs on my Wireworld spendy one to try, if it’s not better just post it back to me mate.
PM you for friend prices.
