Thanks for you helpful and insightful reply Dave. If I'd been able to make I would have.

Thank you Dave
For the Info,
I'm looking forward to the next one, hopefully not in the thick of winter, due to the logistics incurred to attend.
It is great to be able to have a social get together, where one can see and hear all the Devices under one roof, enjoying others creativity and Home built devices compared to expensive Branded Products.
Where else is such a experience available, I think only in Huddersfield.

September hopefully. It will be bring anything next time.

That should spring a few surprises.

I'll try to make it to that - I was impressed at how well the big old Crown amp did at Steve's mini-meet. Not as silky as the OTL, but dynamics and cone control like nothing else.

Shame. I can’t make it. I’ll be just five days post-op after another knee replacement surgery, probably only 2nd day home. Hope it goes well, though.

I'm definitely interested in this. I may even bring an amp.

Are the details in the thread? Do I need to get added to a list?

Is there a confirmed date for the next meeting ?
I am enquiring as I am having a break for 9 days outside the UK in October.
I've got a imported Valve Design DAC based on the 1541 chip, as well as a supplied upgraded chip, yet to be used.
The DAC has a USB and Digital Coax input, I would like to bring it along if it can be hooked up to a device.
I also have a Imported DIGNA Phonostage, that in my view, is much improved to the Clones Audio PA1, that I brought along to a Bake Off.
I would like to hear this against the resident reference Phon' to get a measure on it and some feedback.

It will be early October now and deffo DAC's after reading some proper nonsense elsewhere about DAC's sounding like £3000 and costing £200
