    Shame. I have a few questions which are a bit complex and need interactive discussion. I really cant be bothered with e mail exchanges

    Colin definitely prefers initial email contact. I have always found that he responds quickly to emails.

    Bear in mind that Colin only started building dacs (and other stuff) after retiring from his previous full time work and that was some years ago.

    He called me after I had emailed him, but as you say, he works from home now so he definitely isnt in it to run a business and make lots of money.! . I found him to be an absolute gentleman, who was so interesting to listen to, who couldn't do enough for me when he really didn't have to.

    Indeed, same experience here.

    I'm kicking myself for not originally ordering his DDDac implementation. By all accounts it was a world beater. We had it all priced up to my spec but then I got distracted. Sadly he no longer does new builds, but as I mentioned he is still available for repairs (so far not required).
