Never mind. At my suggestion the brother bought a Sony DVD player in Currys for 49 euro, and it's now spinning merrily away. Apart from a slightly louder mechanism he thinks it sounds as good as or better than the venerable Arcam. Digital really has come a long way since the 90s.

The Kondrashin box set has been on my 'must get' list of recordings for more than a decade now. But it has been out of print for far too long and the only sets available have been second hand sets at a rip off price. Some day perhaps. Given this, it's interesting that it's available to stream on Qo...
