Yes, Lordsummit, indeed we have but this time it was the Sugden angle I was most interested in 'cos I have the chance of getting a new Masterclass phono stage at what seems an excellent price and as I am a confirmed Sugden user (A21 and very soon an SE) I thought it might be a whole new ball game, considering its RRP at 1300 quid. Not that price usually has much to do with it but Sugden products are usually very good value after all. As always, auditioning is impossible where I live and I shall be buying blind (as was the case with my A48II in 1975, myA21a in 2000 and my A21SE next week, I hope) - how's that for faith in a manufacturer ! Thanks anyway.
