Very kind Addict and we may well sort something one day - maybe with Richard. I've just ordered a replacement for my TEAD Vibe Pulse 2, and given that my whole amplification chain makes a big thing of avoiding transformers in the audio path, I'm probably not the ideal candidate for a TVC.

Everytime I've heard one, I really haven't "got" it - with the exception of a chance pairing at Dev's a year or so back. I tend to look for a system that builds from the bass up. All the TVC's I've listened to now seem to lean the other way. I guess I am biased! They just don't seem to suit my tastes.
