Interesting how things move around. I am now the proud owner of this little gem and it so happens to be paired with the NAD 312 (ugly duckling, as he called it) I bought from sweetsound a good few years ago :D My first adventure into valve amps and I am really enjoying it (along with the...

If you're hungry for Fibre there is some good news for certain parts of Cape Town. Vumatel are currently rolling out in Durbanville area and have added some new show interest overlays in Edgemead / Monte Vista / Welgelegen area. It's worth checking it out to see if you are covered. You can show...

If you decide the project needs a rename you could go with: Lanties Moerse FLACing Amazing Organiser  :ROFLMAO:
