April issue
Is it the April issue next? What goodies do you have in store for the issue that comes out on 6th March?
That should be close! 
Indeed - one of our favourite tests in recent times. Lots and lots of listening, tons of discussions and plenty of admiration for just how good a sound you can get from a sub-£1000 amp these days!
If you must Mr. E....
Cyrus 8vs2, whf&v favourate son, is odd on favourate at 5-4.
Cambridge Audio 840A was a big hit and mk2 should be even better however would it hit editor's hot spot so 3-2 on seem fair!
Naim seem to have a bit of a difficulty to get a full 5 stars reviews with this mag as they are not an all rounder so 2-1 is the odds and should be a poppular bet here.
As for Audio Analogue Verdi Settanta, it certainly has a build quality on it side although remote control might lost AA a point or two! Toroidal transformer could wave some magic but realisticly this is an outsider at 3-1.

Hmm, interesting analysis...
I will read the Motif review with interest. My experience with them at Bristol was not exactly electrifying. I do wonder if I was somewhat over spoilt at Bristol, so held unrealistic expectations for these speakers?
Which sub are you going to use? Is there a deciated sub for this package?

There's a Motif sub planned for later this year. For the test, we used the Ikon subwoofer (£550) from Dali's Award-winning Ikon 6 5.1 package.
Dedicate sub should be out in summer!
I really love to hear the LCR, shame I couldn't made it to the show. I am off to Heathrow show though so hope to see them there.
Looking forward to reading the review of the Arcam Solo Mini, small is beautiful, apparently.
Hi Claire - I wonder if April includes a review of the Samsung BD-P1400 Blu-Ray player? Quite a few people on the Forums have them but I don't think you've ever covered it?
Now that the stupid format war is over, I want to buy a Blu-Ray player - the BDP-LX70A is still my number 1 favourite but I'm looking forward to the magazine arriving next week to see what alternatives there are.
Yes, the April HD supplement does include a review of the Samsung BD-P1400. And the Panasonic BD30. And the Pioneer you mention. Among others...

That's wonderful, you're including everything I wanted to see! But now I have to wait how many days/hours/minutes/seconds until it arrives through my letterbox.......? (Men don't do "waiting").
Free 36-page HD guide- overview of where we are now with high-def,from Blu-ray to broadcasts. Includes reviews of the latest BD players from Samsung, Panasonic and Sony, plus our pick of the existing crop - plus some suggested HD systems, including connection advice.
Bought the April issue 3 days ago. But it did not come with the HD guide supplement.
I'm from Singapore. I noticed that supplements don't get shipped here very often. Only once in a while. Subscribing compared to buying off the shelf to ex for me. 
I myself was extremely hungry for the april HD supplement and guess what, it also didn't come with my magazine. This was in Belgium and for 8.50 euro I'm disappointed to say the least.
