Ok ok - so I know the TES thing has been covered here numerous times, but as it's my first post I thought I'd dive straight in anyway as this is a current consideration for me.
I've just got myself a secondhand Providence delay 80's - sounds fantastic, but JUST falls short of my friends Cornish TES. The TES has fatter repeats, more headroom, and you can get those darker delays much louder than you can with the Delay 80's. However - the delay 80's remains a superb sounding unit, is very pedalboard friendly, can run from 9V and is a quarter of the price of the TES.
I wonder how a Keeley or Analogman Modded DD2 compares to a Cornish, or indeed a Delay 80's? And also, The TRex replica (purely as I saw one on a photo of Gilmours pedalboard once).
Ok - let's hear it. Looking forward to reading your replies Ladies and Gents!
Thanks everyone.

What you should do is get your mate to record a few delays setup to be as close as possible and then see if YOU can pick the TES. If you can't then maybe it's not worth you having one... and you should get the one you think it is as that matches the TES sound in your head.
