Hi Trejla. Good luck with the DA60. Actually, I doubt whether you'll need any luck. In Sydney here, the store owner of Audio Connection is also the distributor and makes sure that after sales service is good - one of the staff, whom I've known for years, has a Defy7 running SF Amatis and has had no problems; another current Jadis owner previously imported Audio Research, among other brands, for his store (no longer in this business - too successful elsewhere)- I can only assume that they are all satisfied with the reliability.

The DA60 was suggested to me as a better match for the 'current hungry' Wilsons, but there was no unit in the country to audition (BTW what speakers will you be using?). The voltage in Sydney is nominally 240, but varies from that up to 265! Jadis 220-240v units were consistently having trouble, so in recent years they make special units just for Australia - and not very many of them, so you have to place an order which takes 4 months to fulfill - the store owner does order extra, but these often don't arrive! Oh well..c'est la vie.
Cheers, Rob.
