A fantastic response, thanks for your time, that’s a real help. Yes, I like the look and thanks for adding some more detail as to why the 1202 is better.
I suppose it’s one thing to say something has been ‘serviced’ but it depends on who did it and what they did. If possible a pre-purchase visit and a demo would be a good idea.
On a more basic level do the two actually sound different to each other? It will go in a small room and never be on really loud.
Thanks again Martin.
