For the record, I have no line of communication with Salisbury therefore neither can I have any 'arrangement' with their forum oversight.

Dave, I am quietly pleased for the seller of course at the price this realised and slightly smug for reasons of my own.

It seems to me very significant that the last four bidders in that Avondaled-HiCap auction had about 2,400 eBay trades between them!

Surely it's past time for peace to break out between Salisbury and Chesterfield?

What? Please explain for the benefit of us Avondale Audio amplifier owners.

Have you been sleeping for a decade?

I think David was referring to the new! amp modules that we were told about,
probably a couple of years ago now.
2010 and 2011 came and went but we still have faith.


“The SE amplifier module. Conceived in 1995, PCB prototyped in 1998 and finally refined
to my satisfaction last year. Now signed off for production in 2010.”

No doubt Les will release that when the other stuff stops selling so well.

[markf]

You’re probably right Sq and to be honest there was little enthusiasm from the PFM crowd
when they were announced so I’m not surprised they were forgotten about!

anyway back on topic, what a great achievement the sale of that second hand power supply was ….!

[mudlark]

After I bought mine there are now monos with the front end power supply. Perhaps his nibs is referring to them.

[markf]

No I don't think so Mudlark ,the amps I'm thinking of were going to be a new range of
RMS amplifiers using the new SE module instead of the NCC200,but as Sq said maybe
the existing NCC200 variants are selling so well there is no need for these, I don't know.
I never heard anymore about them and it doesn’t seem like anyone remembered to ask about them
until now....nearly forgot myself ,it’s been a busy couple of years.

How true Simon, nail hit firmly on head. I'm short on resources having let my man B go his way so can't for the moment bring much new product to the table.
I'm putting in some daft hours as it is and as I approach three score and ten, beginning to feel the pace.

The SE boards, amongst a raft of other kit, are quietly waiting in the wings for when I get some new help (offers invited BTW).

Now, is that OK with you gentlemen or would you like to have me flogged again.?

I've had mine for over twenty years,along with Les's turntable and speakers!!!!!!

It would be nice to have a RMS/Avondale Gallery with all the products from past
to present. Not sure if a collection like this exists all in the one place.

[jackbarron]

That's not a bad idea.
