Hi David, not trying to be negative, but if the brush is so good then loan one out for a review to an AOS member, but £100 for a brush is still a lot of money for music lovers, but if it does what it says on the tin.............

I did loan one out to an AOS member and he bought it, does Marcos' opinion hold no credibility on the AOS forum? I never asked him to review it I just sent it because I know he is serious about his Vinyl and I use it myself, the Isonoe feet are ridiculously priced just to stand your TT on, £100 a set or so I thought! I have a set now!
If I sent samples of all the good products I have my lock up would be empty and I would go bust!
In my experience the distance selling regulations did wonders for small businesses because you are allowed by law to send anything back for a refund within 7 days bought via the web if it's not for you, as I said earlier, in 10 years I have had 2 returns. Funny thing is a customer said to me the other day he purchased a well know Mains Cable for £375 and paid on his CC, he sent it back after much deliberation 5 days after after the seller told him NO burn in was required, it sounded awful straight from the box, his CC was refunded straight away so the experience cost him nothing!

That's very kind of you david i'll take you up on that as a 'stop gap'Originally Posted by Mains Cables R Us
Arm wise that depends on a few factors.I've been after a particular pair of speakers for a while and some came up on the bay last week but typicaly im waiting for money owed to me which i will not get till the new year.
So i thought that they would be snapped up and my chance gone but to my surprise and the sellers no one bid on them.I contacted him and told him i'll have funds after christmas and would he relist? and he said yes so if all goes well and i get the speakers then i will just get a new stock arm and send it to Audio Origami.if i don't get the speakers then those jelco's look awfully tempting

The TT, arm and fitted cartridge are currently on a van on the way to Brook Towers in sunny Huddersfield, I am PRAYING that the delivery van arrives tomorrow and will be staying in ALL day to make sure I don't miss him, much to the annoyance of her indoors who wants to go shopping! I will give her £100 and send her on her way.Hehehehe.... Aye. You'll soon know what a decent cartridge sounds like when you fit the Nagaoka!

Sorry mate you cannot compare Isonoe feet to a brush either in VFM terms or material value.
