Topic: UK loan programme Posted: 09 Oct 2011 at 9:55pm |
We will be posting details of the UK loan programme in the next few days, explaining how you can try out a Graham Slee Product in your home. The loan period will be long enough to burn-in the equipment before serious listening and comparisons, after which you will be responsible for posting it back.
More details to follow, please watch this topic.
[Updated 2019: the UK Loan Scheme is now run by John C]

Graham has kindly supplied many of the GSP Audio phono preamps, headphone amps, and some Cusat cables so UK members of this forum can borrow them. There are SMPSU and PSU1 mains supplies to accompany them so you can hear a GSP unit at home, and find out how good each one sounds.
You will need to cover the postage each way (I will post the typical costs for each piece of equipment soon) but I have packaging materials that you can re-use to send the equipment back after the loan. All the gear has been burnt in so the loan in the UK is for a two week trial to allow the gear to settle down and enjoy listening in your system.
Phono preamps:
Gram Amp Communicator/SMPSU Gram Amp 2 Communicator/SMPSU
Gram Amp 2 Special Edition/SMPSU
Gram Amp 3 Fanfare/SMPSU
Elevator EXP/PSU1 Era Gold V/PSU1
Reflex M/PSU1
Reflex C/PSU1 Accession M + PSU1
Accession MC + Enigma PSU1
Headphone amps:
Solo SRGII/PSU1
Solo Ultra-linear/PSU1 Solo Ultra-linear Diamond Edition/PSU1
Novo/SMPSU
Voyager Proprius Amplifier: Pair, with SMPS and phono plug to XLR plug cables
Cables:
Cusat50 0.6m, 1m, 1.5m Lautus 1.5m Libran balanced jack (for Majestic DAC output) to XLR (for Proprius amps) Cusat50 unbalanced phono to XLR (for Proprius amps)
Spatia 1.5m, 3.5m, 7.5m with or without terminal jumpers
Lautus USB cable 1.5m
DACs: Majestic DAC with special PSU1 Bitzie USB DAC, usually loaned with 1.5m USB cable above
Please see the main Hifi Components (GSPAudio) website for more details of the different products.
Please PM me if you are interested and let me know which item of equipment you want to borrow.

To the members who have PM'ed me already, I am checking the postage charges so I can start mailing out next week. You should get a PM about your delivery addresses and Paypal or equivalent arrangements.

The loan arrangements:
- Please PM me to let me know which item you want to try.
- I will reply and let you know how soon the loan item will be sent out, or the expected date for you if the item is already out on loan.
- The loan will be for 2 weeks from it reaching you. You must send it back promptly so other members can also benefit.
- Please PM me your name and address, I will do the same. Please do not post your name and address or mine on this forum or elsewhere.
- We will use Royal mail Special Delivery which is £7 each way for most of the items, £9 each way for those with the PSU1. You will need to reimburse me for the outgoing postage by Paypal, online payment or cash.
Please share your experiences of listening to the loan equipment. It may help to describe the music you listened to, how it sounded differently to your existing setup, etc.

Can't use the term cross-feed on a commercial product....

That none should be able to buy or sell without a smartphone and the knowledge in how to use apps
