Nice one, Mike - good result! So is 'the boss' letting you keep the money to spend on goodies?

Bloody hell and bugger it, I gave about 15 metres of that stuff away not so long back, scuse me while I go scrape me face along a brick outhouse.
Word of warning to anyone who gets their paws on some of it though, don't use it on any amp that doesn't use a "Zobel Network".
I did, and I was sorry.

They look like some Monitor Audio (I think) speaker cable I used to have years ago. Highly capacitive, if I remember correctly, and known to cause Naim amps problems.
<confusion>
This thread didn't look like this when I replied. Something very screwy going on with AoS at the moment.

Had an e-mail notification this morning that pointed only to post #1 (no other posts showing). I had forgotten about it so replied (my post #17 above) whereas I had already replied before (post #5).
I think it's wrapped up in the larger problems with AoS recently, such as slow posts and page rendering. I posted about it in Critics Corner this morning and it seems others have been suffering too.
