    Had made him a fair offer as when he bought it he made an offer below the 350 asked then. he has now pulled it showing he only wanted to make profit on it. will put him down as a dodgy seller now.

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".

A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    Does a similar job to the MA DIP. I have used both together with interesting results (even more interesting if you bung an X-10D into the mix ).

    The MC25FL is more or less on a par quality wise with the ZYX R50 Bloom in my book, although they sound very different. I had both until recently (blowed if I know where my MC25FL has got to ) and compared them several times.

    To me, the ZYX maybe sounds a bit bigger and even more expansive, but the Ortofon is better detailed at the top and has more 'sparkle' (just).

    They're both lovely cartridges.

    gonna use that anti jitter with my lappy out to the Monarchy. It will allow me to use the Beresford async spdif line and convert to tos all in the box and possibly improve everything at same time....well, that's the theory.

    Ho Ho. You'll have fun with that! Especially if you try what I did. Now all you need is an X-10D. All good entertainment and the results are not what you'd expect. You'd think with that many links in the chain, something would suffer. Not the case. It works a treat!

    And before the more 'highbrow' amongst us start 'poo pooing'. You haven't heard it on my system! So there!
