Great product
Ordered a scart lead for my Sinclair (Amstrad) Spectrum +2, I've bought some from other companies and they never worked. This one is spot on and works perfectly. Thanks Andy & Sue.

Added new product for me
Responded very quickly to a request for an esoteric lead which was not on their website. Product arrived in 2 days and is high quality. I can now listen to my records through a 1970s preamp connected to a state of the art home automation system!
