and so it should. He's been studying all this stuff for decades so is surely the closest to a specialist that you can get. It's great to have an electromechanical expert like him as there is a lot of intellectual bollocks to sift through on the internet.

I agree entirely.  We all use Graham Slee phono stages in my family.  Never heard better.  Punch way above their weight in my opinion. Was astonished at the difference it made to my old Rega Planar 3!
I remember speaking to the Guru in person back in the day when I bought my Gram Amp 2 SE.

I am not it offended by your biwiring comments in the slightest just a little surprised you are still of the opinion I have been deceived in any way.  They have been well chosen using my own ears and perfectly happy with the results which were not from a high street shop These keep forever speaker cables from a specialist manufacturer.

Therefore you are not a newbie!

Guru? Hindu for old teacher... got the old bit right Wink

I have an old fashioned copper cylinder hot water set-up, and when the bath is being run I can't get any hot water from the hand basin tap.

Do you think a separate feed taken from the outlet pipe of the cylinder would solve the problem? Or do you think the bath will still take precedence?

The reason I ask is that I don't know, and you are a plumber.

It’s unusual to get no water at all from the basin tap whilst running the bath tap. 
I take it u have a cold water tank in the loft & suffer with fairly low pressure?

Exactly. If I run next door's bath (same set-up) and my basin tap, they both work...

The amplifier's output ground is not the ground reference, where all signals "flow back to".

Therefore bi-wiring will not give the same result as bi-amping, or might be more effective with one amplifier and not another (different amps).

sounds like the hot feed to the basin is restricted. Too many elbows or a kinked pipe will do it. 
A new feed (in nice polybutylene with a few joints as possible. Thread it through with no joins if poss), would do it but beware of leaving dead legs of redundant pipe. Legionares disease breeds in dead legs.  
Really not good!
