Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I've been curious about the Sony ES obsession of some folks here, including Young Gromit, of course, for quite a while.or
, that's the question.
Well, having recently made the decision to somewhat down-cost my vinyl rig I tried the phonostage in my Sony ESD1000 digital pre-amp. Wowzer, not bad at all.
I have now got rid of my Minimax phonostage and I don't miss it one bit! -- no, it's not quite as good, but the ES 'stage sounds "nicer" and is very listenable indeed !!
So a big

Yes, these old Japanese hunks'o'junk really are dark horses. The Germans have 'got' the ES thing for many years now, but so many of us Brits still see them as 'not worthy'.
The phonostage in my 770ES is at least as good - in fact slightly better - than a Dino & + psu. Ok the Dino's not the greatest phonostage in the world, far from it, but it's still a highly respected bit of kit which puts the Sony's built-in one into perspective.
The amp itself is fantastic, having no particular sound of its own, plenty of power too. For what I paid for it (£250 inc delivery) there's nothing I can think of - that I've heard - to better it for the money.
