Who's bought it then ? Come on up own up
Twin transformers [one for digital, one for analogue output stage], power supply large enough for a small amp, analogue output stage that wouldn't look out of place in a £1K player AND SACD compatible for £45 ? Someone's done alright![]()

This is a load of bollox. Michell dust arm (nasty thing), £135 'Buy it Now'!! I wouldn't give a carrot for it.
According to eBay these are "trending" at £300!! Oh yeah, on what planet might that be? Ridiculous!!!!!![]()
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
'Trending' they say that on the radio now - 'lets see what's trending today' - what, is the word 'happening' not good enough now? Tossers.
Current Lash Up:
TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > Troels Gravesen Faital 3WC-15.
