Shiny brand new second hand things in my system today V1.2

Speaker pics when you can

I haven’t got the speakers. I don’t know what it was used with. I’m going to call the auction house to see whether they can ask the original owner but I’d guess he’s some old boy who’s died and maybe his family just put it in… This unit hasn’t been used in a while if the old round pin mains plug is anything to go by.

Still amazed at how well the ortofon/dynavector managed to play this superb record store day pressing

It’s not shiny and I havent got one, but I want a valve amplifier (again).

Have you seen those £500 300B things linked to elsewhere on the site? I was really tempted until I realised that the tape input was just an input and not a loop. They seem to get good reviews too.

Ah no, must of missed that. I’ve been looking at cheapo ebay tat😳

Lol! I’ve just checked back and you definitely did see them and wanted them because of VU meter reasons… :rofl:

I have a pair of these and the matching preamp if that’s of interest? Tim borrowed them for a while and could give you an idea of SQ.
