Of course we don't just transfer the Fon Lo Thingee in a metal box. There are more goodies in there.

Hi - first time, long time...

I commissioned one of these with a single cap pack upgrade a couple weeks ago. Great to see it is officially becoming a production item. I've been the happy owner of an FLT pipe for a couple years now, but I'm moving my system from the basement to the living room and I need something a little prettier to match my 509/507 hybrid (basically a 509 with Really Big Pipe PS). Also, the RFI in Center City Philadelphia is wicked when it's not in the basement. I have both a Biggie and Really Big PS to try with the unit so comparisons should be interesting. Can't wait - April is a long way off!

Thanks Gilbert!

P.S. Yes, yes, I knew all about the tin foil... Smile

I'd say, it's about time that you join our circus...! Laughing

Post a pic of your rig when you get a chance.

Hi, a customer of mine last year had his FLT put in a box and Gilbert added some other goodies and he has been extremely happy with the results. The aluminum foil works well, electrical shielding tape for guitars is very effective but neither has real visual appeal.
I think that the new FLT iaB looks good and I am sure that it will sound wonderful. I have not played with one in my own system so I cannot comment on its sound, but I have yet to hear one of Blue Circle's new phono stages sound anything other than stellar.
