We did same and Colin also gold plated the sockets hardwear along with plug same ..that’s a nice setup a lot of people forget about the house wiring but we are getting anal now ?? we had to improve the house earth as we had hum out of the transformers .this gets very technical...and as I said once before on hear you get very critical of recordings even if it’s your favourite band it becomes hard to listen to ..this is when you need to seek medical advise ??? before you end up in a secure unit .!!I'm running an Audiolab 8000 cdm they're a superb transport £1.4k back in the late nineties but they can be bought now for around £400 in average condition needing a service? or at least that's what i paid for a mint one boxed 6 years ago. I've just had a look on ebay and it seams prices are on the up as this minter below sold for £700 on open auction. I would highly recommend one.

The system is out of action at the moment since my brother came round and demmed his AVI 150watt monblocks. I really thought they would be better sounding than the Quad 707, there was nothing in it but that the quad sounded more transparent and sweeter in the midrange with just as much welly down below. I'm just looking for some guru like Timmus on here to service the 707 as it's got a dodgy mains lead socket connection and do the latest possible upgraded components to release some more of the Quad magic.

I rewired the ring mains to the house 25 years ago so i put in a separate ring in for the hifi.
