    its awash with trichord dinos
    any ideas?

    not like mf who's owners believe the rubbish, then get wise and sell, trichord is genuinely brilliant circuit design.

    Hi Ian,

    It's hardly awash with them. I see only 5 of them, 4 of them are being sold by dealers. These are all brand new.There is also a trichord lead being sold.

    The Trichord has been on the market for some time. There is also a new phono stage from Michell called the Diablo.

    Hi Tony,

    I saw and heard it briefly at the Manchester show this year. Interesting looking thing. May have to investigate.

    Its a relative thing Dean, you hardly used to see any of them. Then to see 5 at one time. didn't realise they were dealers.
    sorry couldn't resist an mf bash :)

    Hi Ian,

    Ones on ebay are mostly new. The two dealers selling them have had Trichord items on ebay quite often. I have seen a number 2nd hand on ebay over the years. In phono stage stakes, they are quite common.

    They've changed the colour from Silver to Black.

    So it may be the "unsold" silver ones that are now appearing on the market.

    I'd put it head to head with the whest (which isn't too shabby to be fair) and see what cooks.
