Edited - I can't better Firebottle's last post.
#619 Re: Phono bake-off
Thought I had to join here since it was my review on the NVA phonostages, and I did pm the Doc to post here on my behalf, my bad.
Since the Doc had said he was going to the Huddersfield bake-off I asked if he would mind taking me and I would bring along my Arkless stage. I will say I was disappointed when the Doc called off.
The Doc mentioned he had purchased a Voltage Rectifier but had not picked it up, due to not realising how far away it was, so I offered to pick it up, only a couple of miles away and he could pick it up from mine when we went to the bake-off. Considering this did not happen he arranged to come one Sunday and offered to bring his phonos and I would be able to compare. I agreed even though I was happy using the Arkless. I've had my fair share of 'stick' from the Doc in the past on HFS, but feel I have gained much more knowledge so worth it IMO. I do not consider myself a shill or promo boy, just someone who enjoys music. Did I overstate the differences, I'm not a reviewer, I don't think so since my brother came round as a 2nd pair of ears, we have both had a fair amount of experience of dems, at both dealers and our homes.

Hi Antonio66
Welcome to the forum.
I don't think anyone here has a problem with your assessment of the phono stages, and I'm pleased you've found something that floats your boat.
I fully recognise the sense of inner satisfaction that can bring.
If The Princess has been giving you grief just tell him where to get off.

Not via this forum he doesn't.
Whenever an honest man discovers that he's mistaken, he will either cease to be mistaken or he will cease to be honest.

Most on here have lost interest in Princess Sweetcheeks Dunn. What's the chance of his account being deactivated so we can get back to being nice friendly forum again? I'm sure I am not only member with this wish.

Zero while its my call and he talks about things relating to HiFi. I deactivated Jammy and Hucker for both being boring and having nothing to say about HiFi.
As I said before (and I meant it) I am happy to hand control over to someone(s) else, or as Chris pointed out there are other places to go.
