I have mine connected to an HRT Streamer II and a set of JBL Control 1 speakers. Sounds very good in the home office!

My Mini T has just been delivered, but I don't have time to play today, will have to wait for the weekend
Thanks for the great service Chris.

I'll be very interested to hear what you think of the Mini-T/FH3 combo, Chris.

I've done it Keith
With the MA CHP70 drivers' natural tone and the Frugal's "hang in the air" presentation, the extended upper frequencies and precise soundstage of the Mini-T seemed like a very complimentary match to me. The tight bass control also suited the Frugal's design well. Front end was a Touch with MCRU power supply.
Another reason to get out in that shed!

That encouraging - my FH3s will have the Mark Audio CHP70s (the original version - not the MK2s with the rolled-off HF). Hopefully I'll be able to try a Mini-T with them.I've done it Keith

No shed, unfortunately (well, not one that you could actually work in) - it's all being done outside. I actually managed a couple of hours this evening. I've now got all 4 side panels cut and one of the internal pieces done. Might be finished sometime before ChristmasAnother reason to get out in that shed!
