Your amp history...

A fool and his money:
Sony ?
Exposure X
Naim 42.5/110
Then up the Olive tree in expensive little steps to:
52/Scap/250
Icon PS1/250
62/Hicap/110
Planning a big Farlowe Exposure pre-power next if funds ever allow, then one can only assume back to Sony?
 
Panasonic music centre
Phillips music centre
Sherwood receiver
naim nait 3
Beresford DAC/Quad active speakers.
 
Mission Cyrus 1
Naim Nait 1

Still miss the Dynavector gear ... Wonderfully natural and rich sound and distinctly non-hifi, the best i've heard.

I can; this is the work of misterC6.

His work is of the highest order, I know this as I have his 160 and snaps in my system, they are sublime. A good friend also has his 110 monos.

None of his stuff is as humble as it may be perceived. This is serious amplification with the Naim sound in tact.

Very happy days ;)
 
I started off in mono with a Mullard 5/10.
I progressed to a Dynatron 10+10 watt solid state amp in a self built case.
When I got married I moved on to a JVC receiver, can't remember the model,
Then I bought a Marantz 1090 which I still have thirty years later.
On to a pair of Maplin 4/20 valve amps,
Then some AVC EL34 amps.
And now I have a pair of Jolida Music Envoy 211's.
Upstairs I have a pair of those Chinese Naim clones like the Gigaworks ones which sound quite good but I'm moving up with a pair of NCC200s courtesy of MisterC6.
