I'd like to say that dealing with Jerry (jandl100) has been a pleasure. Not only did he send me his Muse Mini-T to try out (I bought it off him as a result) but he also sent me some 12AU7 valves to try out in my new Bravo V2 headphone amp.
A thoroughly nice guy!
I'll be in touch once I've had a chance to listen to them...![]()

So far the RCA tube seems to have the most dynamic sound Jerry. The JJ Electronic I liked the least.

I'd like to thank Pete (phoenixpete) and his wife for their hospitality when collecting the OA5's I purchased from him. The OA5's are perfect for an inconspicuous system in another room that I'm putting together.
I also got to hear Pete's great system.![]()

Kind thanks to Andy (BTH K10A) and his good lady for their hospitality on Saturday, great sounding system, loved the EMT decks, and the JBL speakers were amazing, some of the best sounds I have heard so far in my hifi quest. I would have loved to stay longer and listened more.
I now have more classical records than I shall ever need and have spent the last couple of days sorting through them and making space...
many thanks Andy,
Nice cats as well.
cheers
Nigel
