      so you aren't waiting for it , then?
      I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

      I am not a number, I am a free man.

          After a month and a half (slightly better than last year), I've just broken my New Year resolution not to buy any more CDs. As a Bob Dylan completist, I've just ordered his new Sinatra album and will be very curious to give it a listen. I will now adjust my resolution to have a purely classical frame of reference, and see how long that lasts.

            I went about 5/6 weeks and have had a major relapse. I'm going to climb back on the wagon again, soon. Just got a couple of things to buy first!

                I don't know, but my guess would be that they are the same.

                £11.27 for a second hand set with different (more?) fillers versus £10.22 for a brand new set.

                    ... ah, but I already have the earlier version

                    But the savings on not-buying the newer version might contribute twds the purchase of the Collins...

                      Great rationale! By the end of the year we'll have earned lots of interest on the money we didn't spend on all the CDs we bought!!

                          I caved in last night and ordered this. Toss up between the last LSO Davis and the Boston. A few forumites implied that the Boston is better and Standfordian has vouched for it in no uncertain terms.
