Well, Jon's finally gone viral.  One of the best guitarists I've ever seen and a fantastic musician and songwriter.  Over a million youtube hits and counting, plus a couple of well known musicians and celebrities (Andy McKee,...
  OK - you have to be careful about amp choice for NS1000s! I'M SERIOUS!   Just been testing them with a borrowed Musical Fidelity X-Can v3 with upgraded PSU, caps, tubes etc.  This is a heck of an amp: a few...
