    For those that are unaware, AudioNote is ceasing it's sales of DIY equipment http://www.audionote.co.uk/index_comp.htm.

    I've been informed by a gentleman, interested in my CDT-2 (too late mate :p ), that the majority of AudioNote's available DIY kits are going cheap.

    He himself has landed a pair of AN Silver wound transformers on the cheap.
    So, all you DIY'ers that are interested in a few mods - 'ave a gander :D .

    I would always try these first for speaker stuff.

    I think I didn't post it before to stop you buggers buying all the stock [they are gradually winding down I think]
