    Looks good Jon, and love the listening chair, I would probably nod off in it.

    I used to have some NVA gear about 15 years ago, an NVA P50 passive pre-amp and A30 power amp, I found it very good, very revealing and lots of detail. I moved onto Meridian gear and a surround sound set up for a while.
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner

    Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive

    Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp

    Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones

    Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links


    I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

    I indeed can , but only if the warp drive is topped up with dilithium crystals.

    Thanks.
    I do, all the time, especially as it reclines almost flat.
    I went from a Croft integrated to NVA and it was night and day for me.
    The croft was good, but just too damn warm sounding for my taste.

    The aux battery was for powering a DAC, and see pic 3 for the other answer.
