Re: Holiday time!

Don't worry, Paul. We'll "look after" the place while you're away. You did say it would be OK to sell off the family silver if we run out of lunch money, right?

As we're supposed to be talking about British amps though, I replaced it with an Arcam Alpha2. I've also had an Arcam Alpha 8+8p combo, and an A75+.
