    I probably will do Manchester as its a good show & well attended.
    I'd be happy to bring the EPS310, the Shure and the Io up in headshells so you could hear each of them (The Io does need its own tranny though)

    I really need one of those nice FR cases for carrying 5 or 6 headshells that I occasionally see on ebay!

    Been after one of those for years! They do seem to be elusive, haven't seen one on eBay for a long time.

    Nice one. That would be most interesting....

    It'll be game over with the Io, though, as it's an absolutely fantastic cartridge, and should easily outperform everything else. It's probably the only modern hi-end cartridge I'd consider buying, or that I consider is worth the money.

    Anyway, that's another excellent sesh to look forward to!

    According to Chester Group they have stopped doing both the Manchester and the Scalford shows.

    Do you remember what I asked you to do the last time you posted here, and the other three times before that? It's a simple and entirely justified request.

    Just to refresh your memory:

    Now, can we have your first name and location please, mate? I've asked you this before on more than one occasion. It's something we insist new members provide here, and unfortunately you may lose your posting rights if you choose not to comply. We don't do 'anonymous' on AOS.
    Since you have continually refused to comply with my request, your posting rights have been suspended forthwith until you email me the relevant details through the 'Contact Us' button at the bottom of the homepage, at which point your posting rights will be reinstated.

    Marco.

    As you were asked on another thread please pop into the Welcome section and say hello, tell us a bit about yourself, system and musical taste. Can you also put your first name as your signature and a basic location. These are basic requirements of joining AOS.

    Nothing on the Chester Group website about not doing those shows, though that in and of itself does not mean they are not doing them either.
