Graham, yesterday I received the 2nd Beta Novo. I was getting worried since the last person was not responding to my communications (over 4 over a week's time). Doing this loaner/review programs are a pain in the behind, for example the last two reviewers claim that they got sick and could not post comments. It is disappointing because I extended their review period by two weeks in one case and by a week for the second person.
 
Oh well, I am listening to it and loving it. Thanks.
Miguel

I realise that I am a Newbie, but would be more than happy to test anything and report back.
 
Currently have Gram 2 phono and Solo SRG
 
Main system Project expression 1 turntable, cyrus kit (CD 8se, Dac x, Pre xvs, aPA 7.5 mono blocks - the Pre and Dac have PSX-r power supplies) Cables are:  interconnect Nordost mixture Red Dawn, Blue Heaven and Solar Wind, Speaker Cables - Kimber 8TC.  Speakers - Wilson Benesch Square 1.
 
I have three other systems - one is Cyrus Quattro with monoblock smartpowers into Dynaudio Audiance 52 speakers Interconnect - Missing Link with QED Silver Anniv. XT speaker cable
Next is (various CD players) into Cyrus one and Ruark Epilogue II speakers Interconnects (currently Chord silver sirens)  keep changing as do speaker cables
AV is ancient DVD player, Denon 1905 AV amp and quad 6.1 speakers TV is an excellent Toshiba tube TV (remember them - as far as I am concerned LCD has only just bettered it)
 
I also have iPOD nano (latest version) with Sennheiser PX100 earphones
 
I am also trying to build a vinyl/ valve (tube) based system for the study - but haven't got everything yet.  Probably Rogers Cadet, not sure of speakers and using elderly turntable.
 
The reason for listing all of this is to illustrate that I have a variety of systems that I can test things with and also that I am a born again hifi geek LOL
...... and that's my opinion, take or leave it

Hi Graham,

I'd love to be included in the next Beta rounds, please.  At the moment, the system is a CD/Tuner front end.  I have my phono stage completed for MM, but not cased up.  No TT running as yet, either, so It'll be headphone amps and pre-amps (when it comes) for me.... Wink

Speakers are IPL TLs and move a reasonable amount of air!

Many thanks!

Jon

Hi Graham,
Deffinately up for some testing!
I have a Technics SL1200, Rega Apollo, Audio Analogue Pre-Power combo running Dali Ikon 1 speakers. I also have a Solo with PSU1.  Oh and it runs on it's own spur from the CU. I plug everything into a power conditioner/6way adaptor, apart from teh Solo that gets its own socket on the spur.
Thanks

Andy

I would be more than delighted to help out Beta testing. I lost faith in W**t HiFi magazine, when I tried out some of their 5 star products... particularly the B&W A5,A7 and Zeppelin old and new.  I thought they sounded absolutely awful.  Perhaps good in the context of their genre.

*not sure if I'm allowed to mention the name =)

The name probably isn't worth mentioning... I'm not even an engineer and I'm already sick of seeing wannabes masquerading as professionals... Angry Most of them haven't got a clue. They're not scientists; they're business people with a hidden agenda and I'll tell you now that the agenda doesn't include your musical satisfaction... Wink

I wish they'd stop their ridiculous facade and just go home. Geek
