Hi Jim and thanks for your interest. Well, the main issue with Canada is going through customs. Sadly I have had one or two instances that it has taken several weeks to clear instead of the usual week or so. Let me get a quote from USPS with insurance and delivery confirmation and get back with you in the next couple of days so we can discuss further.

Easy bmbrown911, if you are interested and you reside in CONUS you send me a PM with the gear you would like to try. I then respond with the cost to ship insured to your door which you are to send me via PayPal (with verified address). You then try the gear for two weeks and return to me insured.

J.Coade I am sorry but I rather not ship across borders and involve customs in both directions. Sorry.

What we need here is a Canadian member who has the ability and patience to run a Canadian loan scheme (voluntarily) and who has the enthusiasm and time to be a moderating contributor here.

As the owner of the PSU1 on Solo SRG, then SRGII and now the UL you will not be disappointed.

On Tuesday February 28 of 2012 I shipped Robert the Solo UL w/ PSU1, a Novo, and a second switching wall wart to listen comment. I look forward to his impressions.

Not sure if this is the place to post impressions but will go ahead and leave a few thoughts. Recieved the Novo and Solo UL on Mar.1 and instead of working my way up the ladder I figured I would jump right into the UL. My original intention was to find out if purchasing the Novo would tide me over well enough or if the UL was worth all that extra moolah. Not to my surprise after just listening for 2 days so far I can resoundingly say it sounds more then worth it to me. First thing that caught my attention right off the bat was the bass. Holly cow there was a lot more of it then I'm used to when listening with headphones. Not only a lot but very in control and detailed. It's never been this easy for me to follow the bass lines in my music. Definitely a winner in that category. It's also VERY! resolving. I've been through many different head amps of all different price categories and was hearing things in my music I had no clue were there. From one end to the other it just sounds phenominal. This is what I've been wanting out of my headphones. You would think with all this praise that I wouldn't have anything to say about the Novo but I have done some listening. Not enough to really get a handle on it's sound quality yet. Plus Mrarroyo said it may need a bit of running in yet. Initial impressions was that it was very articulate. Lyrics in music were extremely easy to understand, bass was good too but not as detailed as the UL which is to be expected. Overall the little bit I did listen to it though I was thoroughly impressed but I think the UL pretty much spoils a person if they get to hear it. If it didn't exist I would probably spring for the Novo but I guess on the bright side Graham will make more money off of me if I end up with the UL...lol. Longer write up then I was intending but wanted to put some of my thoughts down in case anyone was interested. Cheers!
