    Sure, but not much to see. It's a heavy black box with front mounted switch, rear mounted sockets and under-lip blue LED.

    Would you be so kind as to show us a few pictures of the unit on the inside?

    In another post Marco had asked Paul if it was OK to post pictures of the unit and Paul was fine with it but to date nobody has done so...

    Thanks in advance!

    Why do you want to see the insides boss, seems waste of time to me?

    Those Isonoe feet look damn cool, mine are in the box waiting for something to fit them to!

    Nice one, Martin - glad you've got yours now, as I know from experience how much of an improvement the SR5 brings to your system!

    Paul is a very gifted audio designer and has the rare skill of not only having the technical knowledge to produce innovative designs, in terms of the circuits he makes, but also the ability to 'voice' his circuits to reproduce music faithfully by judiciously selecting components which combine to achieve the best possible audio performance.

    At end of the day in hi-fi, the difference between a merely competent design and truly world-class one, is in the final fine-tuning by ear - and this is where Paul's designs leapfrog some of the competition, whose products have been produced simply on the basis of performing well on the test bench. This gives Paul's designs a musical ability lacking in other designs where the accent isn't as much on final fine-tuning by ear.

    Therefore, if people really want to hear what their SL-1200 or 1210 is capable of, then fitting an SR5, in my experience, is one of the best ways of achieving this.

    Anyway, Martin, well done and enjoy the music!

    Marco.

    after reading threads for an hour and half about the SR5 I'm now kicking myself that I bought a Timestep HSE for my 1210! Looks like I'll be saving up for the SR5 nxt year then
