    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    You're right. The asking price is nuts especially when you consider the US retail price in 1978 was $500.

    The thing about speakers like that is that, like my Akais, whilst they will easily hold their own with a brand new speaker around the same asking price hardly anyone realises this so the actual market worth is a lot, lot lower. £500 would be more realistic and they probably wouldn't fetch even that.

    I can only assume that the cartridge is made of platinum-plated unobtainium.
    TT2's good, but not THAT good.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I think it may have been made by ZYX. But the price is just plain stupid. Wonder if there's anybody just as stupid to buy it?
