Thanks Keith, that's really helpful to hear. My upgrade to a Nottingham Analogue Ace Spacedeck was a massive step for me and the phono stage choice is part of that. I see that you are running a valve amp but you've not opted for a valve phono stage, like the Audion or similar....the Accession is much different? Thanks again. Tony

Hi Tony. I like my valve amp a lot but perhaps a valve phono stage would be a step too far. Not tried one to be honest. I have become a big fan of Graham Slee design philosophy and it does it for me.
I've had the Accession for just over a week so about half way through burn-in. You will have noted on the website a lot of discussion about burn-in. They like about 300 hours initially and then just left powered on 24/7 thereafter.

Hi Keith, yes, I think I know what you mean. I have got some thinking to do regarding Accession and Reflex M. I will try and take advantage of the loaning arrangement to try them both out. Thanks very much for your input. All the best. Tony

With more time at home I've been re-ripping some of my record collection, replacing Elevator and Revelation M rips with AccMC recordings into the same ADC recorder and I'm hearing more of the music. The Accession is more money but I think it is a big step up if you want to take it.

Hi Jon,
Thanks for that. I had a long conversation with John C today and hopefully will have a chance to compare and contrast the Reflex M and Accession....the more I hear, the more I'm looking forward to it!!
Thanks again. Tony
