You've been going through those old 'HiFi Choice' review books again haven't you? I recognise half of those and always wanted to get my mitts on a Robertson Forty Ten, but never had the opportunity.

All in the memory banks. No wonder I forget everything else! It’s a mix of stuff I’ve managed to get my mitts in and stuff I stil keep one eye out for. A Lynwood Emerald would be a lovely find.

Here's a rarity, Audio Concepts P300 'Legend' power amplifier. A big hefty 180 watt MOSFET job. I used one for about twenty years. Bloody good amp!

It was up there with the Thresholds and Krells of the time. I have a comparative review somewhere.

What abiut Quantum. They made Naim-like amps that we’re very good and nicely built, Almost forgotten now, but I remember them fondly. Made by a guy called Tim Nind IIRC.
