I recommend borrowing the Accession with the PSU1 Enigma so you hear the equipment at its best.

I am sure the Accession especially with the improved power supply is an excellent bit of kit and the ultimate as far as GS is concerned but it would be a waste of time for me to borrow one as it is pretty much twice the price I am willing to pay.

It may seem like I spend a lot on my HiFi and to some I probably do but you should know the Naim Amps etc. I have are all items I have bought used and often refurbished. So a fraction of new prices.

I am really after something of a similar price to a Naim Stageline so the Reflex C is what I am looking at.

I was just thinking I would in replacing the Stageline have a spare slot to power another phono stage like the Reflex that runs on a 24v supply. 

Do you think this is possible?

I spoke to John C this morning and very edifying it was too.  I am borrowing a reflex C and it should come next week.  I am looking foreward to trying it out and comparing it to my Naim Stageline Phono.

I did ask him for about using a spare output from my Naim Flatcap XS power supply to power the Reflx and it is entirely possible to do so and he could make me up a lead to do it.  I will leave that to try on my own unit if/when I get one after returning the Loan unit. Whether it will be better or not is a matter of trying and listening.
