As the European loan coordinator, I just want to point out that being a coordinator is not a massive undertaking so does not take up lots of your free time. So far this year, I have only had eight loan requests. Obviously the U.K. scheme may be a little bit different. I see it as an opportunity to help fellow audio enthusiasts.
You have the entire range of products at your disposal to enjoy when they are not out on loan. What more could you ask for?

Hi John,
I'm keen to upgrade my Solo ( Serial No.0131-387 ) to the ULDE version. I have the PSU1. I was going to order the upgrade but then noticed your "Loaner" offer. This seems a really good service for current owners. Is it possible for me to try one first?
Regards

Try sending a PM directly to John if you don't hear something soon. Sometimes people don't check the board and wait for PMs to show up via email.

Good Evening John, I am considering upgrading my cartridge, a Benz Micro Glider for their Gullwing SLR. If it is as good the dealer says ( I can't audition it ) I think it's performance may be hampered by the phono stage I use ( Convert Technologies Plato digital recorder / server ). I would be interested to hear your Accession MC with my current set up to see if the cartridge upgrade is my best option. I understand the Accession has two outputs, can one be connected to my integrated amp and the second to my digital recorder ( aux input - bypassing the inbuilt phono) and switched between the two? How do I arrange a loan unit?
Regards

A few days ago I sent you a PM. Today it's not showing as having been read, so I got to wondering if PMs are working okay.

You need to PM the UK loan coordinator. I believe that is John C. The test drive program is different from the loan program as IIRC the test drive program is for prototypes and products under development.
If you just want to make a purchase, you can do that here:

I have just joined - I'm sure you know that - I was wondering if it is possible to try some speaker cables. I currently have Audio research amps and Magnaplaner speakers, with a L*nn/Koetsu source. James

Hi John, new here but I look forward to being part of the community.
I'm interested in trying Graham's Reflex M phono stage, with both the standard and higher quality p.s.u.
Would that be possible?
