Kadrons. Call rod penrose,he generally has some 2nd hand sets from the USA. I have recently converted from webers to kadrons and couldn't be happier. Some people don't like them but most of my friends have them and they are fine. They are good value if you buy 2nd hand,if you are gonna buy new, spend the extra 400bucks or so and get webers jetted and tuned by a pro. I like kadrons, easy to tune and after you tune them you pretty much don't touch them again.

cheers
Mick.

Hahaha. There is nothing wrong with your setup izac, its just mega overkill for the 1600, but good if you going to be going up to 1776/1915. The dellorto's are very smooth though and give the 1600 heaps more responce.

I can't say i know what the dcnf is from experiance, but a few chaps on here thing they are great. 🙂

I cant seem to find any new Single DCNF setups (for under 400 bux).. but i suppose they wouldnt run too well with the autostick system.

Eraser, you wont find them new (as far as i know....?). only second hand. i think the only new weber similar is progresssive and most dont like them.

I may have a 40 dcnf with manifold avaliable... if you're interested, PM me.
