Hi Norm,
Thanks for the kind words! Didn't deliberately go for obscure stuff - in fact well known brands tend to hold resale better so there's a bit of risk going for less well known gear. I like the sound a lot (!) - it seems especially good for delicate electronic music, jazz and folk. Layered 3D sound stage and good tonality/timbre. Long term, I would like to upgrade but I'm not sure where to begin/which component (don't want to mess it up either). There is no rush as I really enjoy the sound and the budget is null at the moment!!! Any ideas welcome!
Greets,
Nick
