Crwilli....Thank you very much. I am beyond excited, but still a bit apprehensive as the YG's are so very good. But the deed is done, I paid the first tranche.

The irony is that my room will be more open despite the bulk of the Strads because losing the sub will free up a lot of space in my lounge.

I should take delivery of the Strads next weekend if all goes according to plan (no turning back anymore). I cannot wait.
