Yes I have been using mine for a week or so, tore.
Feeding a Musical Fidelity dual mono choke regulated amp into Monitor Audio RS8's [bi-wired].
The sound is very transparent indeed and shows up every imperfection in the vinyl, if it is second hand.
Indeed Trollheart, very useful suggestion, I will try it and thankyou.
The RP1 is only £230, so not top of the range, but it does a great job for the outlay.
