    If you can buy a used example from a dealers they would ship it to you securely. Don't know what model you have in mind, or what your budget is, but Emporium Hifi's website says they have at their Kent branch a Roksan Caspian M2 integrated for £995.

    I bought from Emporium Hifi before
    And it was a nightmare.
    Communication was poor and ut took
    Me around 2 months to receive my item
    As they sent it to the wrong person
    And that person decided they wanted to buy it.
    They did though send me a new version
    Of the item i bought but it made me nervous
    To buy from them.

    I was then sent to a special needs boarding school which was a

    So my education was poor
    And this means my grammar is very poor.
    So i apologies if my English is offensive
    It is why i tend to avoid posting
    As i am self conscious about
    My poor grammar but English
    For me is like a foreign language.
    I'm sorry if I offended you it was just meant as a joke and your English is perfect so please don't worry about that.

    Appreciate the heads up Jason - I was considering some speakers they had, think I'll give them a miss

    rather more expensive, but Elite Audio have a Roksan Blak integrated for £1795. Over £3k new.

    I think maybe my experience was a one off
    But as said made me nervous
    But they have been in business a long time
    So you should be fine.
    If you pay with paypal your protected anyway

    My budget is £300 so yes above budget
    I'm looking at either a kandy
    Or a k2.
    Andrew did message me sadly
    No delivery and Milton Keynes is to far for me
    As i do not drive.

    I use the Roksan Kandy Ka-1 and it's a great amp Jason. Would you not consider buying off Ebay. There's one on there for £295 with a remote. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255557027...1O5ZY8gHRAjSZC
