    Sussed me.

    Here's the grand shootout between the MBLs and the Ravons ....



    and here they are in a more appropriate setting, background music in my conservatory ...



    Cost me £5 in a charity shop as I thought they looked sweet.
    Actually, they sound surprisingly respectable!

    First post was on the phone - then when I saw the baffles on a decent telly twas obvious an edit was required

    I reckon you should find a way here though. Been on for ages and they have Jerry stamped all over them: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MBL-101E-R...EAAOSwLVZV5A6n

    Hey, they are a gen-u-ine known quantity - I had no idea!

    No longer available, so I don't know the RRP - anyone know? - I might have to go back to the charity shop with an extra donation. They're pretty decent for what they are.

    It said 60 Euros in the video I posted - he paid 40 on ebay. You did well for £5 minus a dust cap.

    Actually, the dust cap is just a bit pushed in, have tweaked it out a bit with a pin and it's fine unless you deliberately take a close look.

    Whoops - the wife has just got up and spotted them.
    She was with me when I bought them yesterday.
    "Oh, they look sweet there!" - "Have you tried connecting them up?"
    I clicked the Spotify 'play' icon.
    Surprised look (she's used to the MBLs, remember) - "They sound good!"

    Yep, another £tenner will be paid at the charity shop.

    2nd system update.

    Frosty today in the Welsh hills!



    You can just see my leetle Akai graphic equaliser, behind the wooden dinosaur (how appropriate! ).
    A 4dB bass lift from that and the quite bass light Maggies sound just rootin'-tootin'.

    AMC 2100 power amp supplies loads of control (100wpc, 30A+ current delivery ).
    Audiolab MDAC fed by an old Pioneer DVD player as CDT. Long USB cable from lappy for streaming.
    Rotel DD tt with Goldring Eroica mc cart.
    Denon minidisc player for my 500 or so collection of mainly live concert recordings off Radio 3.

    ... and not forgetting my luvverly tartan carpet.

    Sweet.

    Looks a bit nippy out there, Jerry.

    Snowed here on Saturday night. Got up this morning and the toothpaste was frozen in the tube....
