    I have an ELP, but I am not sure that I want to part with it. I'll think about it, but send me a PM.

    Had an MLP, and liked it, but the Pass is far better. I would look for an X1

    Oh my, now you're gonna make me rethink getting rid of mine. Lemme simmer a bit on parting ways with my Dodd ELP. I have been on a kick this year with departing from my pack ratting ways of old. Off hand, I don't recall what one set of the tubes are, but the other set I always used are the Bugle Boys.

    Thinking...thinking...
    No excuses!

    Thanks Marvin,, had the Belles,,20a for a few years,, the ultraverve is more than I want to pay,,I will either end up with an ELP or Audible Illusions L1 to pair with the Belles 350. Again,, thank you kindly for the replies

    Cute! 😉

    I don’t think mine has the mute button... I guess that’s a nice touch.
    Alea jacta est!

    I had forgotten just how good this thing sounded,, running an old pair of monitor 7’s with the peerless and a tfm 45 until the Belles gets back,,simple is nice for me at my age.

    Egads... I’ll have to check mine — haven’t seen it in ages, it’s in a box somewhere. Haven’t had time for serious listening in a decade. 😢
