Me neither... It's potentially interesting, though! Perhaps James would simply 'spit out' in plain English what he's attempting to put across?
I will decline commenting further on recent posts, and on the crux of this thread, until everyone has had their (fair) say on the matters currently under discussion.
However, in future, it's likely that we'll be applying a ban on any discussions of NVA or RD (out with of purely hi-fi-related matters and sales threads), as all it does is causes disruption and drags AoS down to the gutter level of RD and his cronies/sycophants.

I quoted the part that I was responding to - I think that that is normal when clarity is being sought.
ooh look, done it again.
All the best. Guy

Hi Marco,
I was hoping it is the guy that made NVA Amps and to get maybe the duff two I have fixed, they belonged to my son Andrew, he passed away a few years ago now, and he loved them.
I would loved to hear them working again.
Jim (not James please)

Hi Jim (sorry, you put James on your profile, hence why I addressed you as such),
No worries, I see. Have you been unable to get in touch with Richard to have the faulty amps repaired?

I think it's called 'selective quotation', or to put it more succinctly, 'twisting the facts to support an agenda 'Originally Posted by BTH K10A: Why have you only selectively quoted me .....?

All the above posts aside, I'm sure NVA would be delighted to get these cables working for you again and, like other cables that used a fairly similar type of cable (Chord Co. Solid, which came in a very inflexible style to start with and a thinner and slightly easier type later on), I strognly recommend great care and a sensible attitude when using them once repaired to allow them a very long life. Just remember they are NOT stranded
I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?

Hi Jim
Just look him up on eBay which is where he now trades. Go to the hi-fi section and search for NVA. I'm sure you can contact him through there.
