Got another amp arriving this week. I was going to say 'new' but it's a pre-loved item and a steal at the price I reckon. I will give you all the full appraisal when it gets here  |

Seems like the amp has completely expired so I have been given a full refund. I still have my old amp so I'm not without. Scouring ebay at the moment trying to find another good amp at the right price |

Looks interesting is that a new amp your considering Pete? I bought it secondhand Trev, the amp I bought last week was faulty so back it went and I had to find a replacement and the Lyngdorf pictured above is it. I wanted a Class A amp originally, but GOOD Class A amps are hard to find and not cheap either, so that amp was a bargain but the couriers managed to mangle it  Always fancied playing with a Tact or a Lyngdorf as a few years ago I had a PS Audio semi-digital power amp which was a touch too smooth for my tastes but this amp is a different beast thank goodness with crisp dynamics and taut tuneful bass. |

A friend of mine has loaned a power cable to try with my new amp because he reckons the Lyngdorf amp is sensitive to which power cord is used. He's absolutely right, I have installed his cable and PHEW what a transformation. It looks jolly expensive so I'm not going to ask where it comes from and how much it costs either |
