    Hello Guys, Where to start and what to say? Perhaps.... My usual windgat swagger turned into a stagger. Suddenly time came to a standstill, yet I could not keep up with it? What is this? Was it that last lamb chop I ate two weeks ago that perhaps too hastily vanished into this Karoo boytjie's...

    Hello Guys, Stuttering and chugging but all 16 cylinders shall be running smoothly soon. Thank you all for your concern. I'll be fully operational again starting next week. No need to pamper at all, I deserved what came my way, not going to lay it all bare. Old railway rolling stock never give...

    Genesis 450 Amplifier recommendations.

    Hello Aaron, Yes as said a new build on an older more stable board. It is however not the board what maketh the modification sing, but what is done / replaced on the actual board itself. I am not proposing to do this just for the sake of money but as a dinkum upgrade.

    Genesis 450 Amplifier recommendations.

    Remember this was a second or even 3rd hand unit you purchased? Well, given the fact that I laid down certain design criteria at the time of design long time ago,, I can apply some fresh thinking and the odd lesson learned along the way. It can become a much better amp regarding timing as well...

    New Turntable: Luphonic - Where function and design meet

    In these days of 'less is more", I fear I have to say it does look a bit too anorexic.

    Jadis back in South Africa

    Well done Stefan. I first listened to Jadis around 1992 and was suitably impressed by the build quality and sound. Glass chimneys around the output tubes (although this had the output tubes sweating) This is what is needed for these winter evenings perhaps along with a wee dram of some sorts.

    more local amplification

    I have listened to these amps as well, and they really are worth all the accolades that I have heard so far. Conceived by an electronic wizard who knows how to keep the soul of the music alive. And what a humble guy Peter is too.  I highly recommend a listen to this brand, proudly shown off by...

    Munich High End 2022

    Jozua, I suspect that smaller companies like EAT owned by Jozefina Lichtenegger shall be stepping up production and make a killing. European Audio Team operates from Prague although not sure if still there. She personally gave me this KT88 at the last Munich Hi End just before Covid. Maybe...

    Munich High End 2022

    Nope, Roy and I opted out. Costs to exhibit plus shift stuff back and forth prohibitively expensive. I am afraid SA is my oyster, Roy is attempting the States as a possible outlet.
