Back in October I had a Sansui 1000 (not the "A" model) receiver for sale here for a while, you may or may not recall. Anyway, it didn't garner any interest here on AK so after a month or so, I listed it on eBay, where it was purchased by a gentleman in Italy who really only wanted the power and output transformers. So I removed them from the unit, packed them up well and shipped them off to Italy. The buyer gave me excellent feedback and thanked me several times.
Today, I received a small package in the mail from Italy and when I opened it, found a cd with jpg's of the amplifiers and preamplifiers that this man designs. They're quite beautiful and look very professionally done so I was wondering if anyone, particularly our European members, has seen or had a chance to listen to any of the Dissanayake line? There was a note thanking me for covering some of the postage (it ran over my calculated estimate so I just covered it, it was less than $10) indicating that he was an hi-fi designer and that the disc contained some of his designs. When I opened up the jewel case, there was 10 Euros, now I've got to get back to Italy and Spain!!!
Very nice guy, very nice looking gear and just an unusually nice un-prompted gesture.
