    Keep an eye on it. You could flog your Audiolab gear to help fund the purchase of that lot.

    General Q on Audiolab pricing for those in the know then... I have a mix of "old" and "new" (or original and Chinese) stuff aquired over the last couple of years.

    What are the Chinese made 8000M's worth - even with a slight/quiet transformer hum that would cost £80 each to repair apparently ?

    The 8000P (UK made) will be redundent once I pick up the Rotel RB-985 I bought for AV duties this weekend.

    And once Stan builds a phono stage/pream into my Caiman, the 8000C will also be surplus.

    Sorry to digress

    What's wrong with a Q then?

    Nothing wrong with the Q I am sure - not that I have given serious consideration to swapping for one. The C will go simply because I only expect to have two sources - the Caiman as a front to all the digital inputs and the Project Debut turntable.

    Also, and this may seem "sad" but I also have a Numark USB mixer thing that I bought cheap with an intent to use for ripping vinyl, but I may well use it as a non-audiophile preamp for parties / BBQs etc when I (or others) want to play.

    An 8000p has gotta be worth around £200+ I'd say. I'd be interested myself, depends on the timing of the sale/whether I have any spare moolah.

    :-) Thanks. Not sure yet what I want to do with all this hardware. Once the Rotel is in place fronting the Denon I will make a decision as to how it all gels together before saying the P is surplus to requirements.

    Peter, you're looking through the telescope from the wrong end!
    Hi-fi gear is never surplus to requirements - it's just the begining (or part of the evolution) of another system - simple really!

    20hrs to go & only £720.00 on it. If the seller lets that go for less than £800 he wants his chain yanking..

    I see the final selling price was £1,340.00

    The buyer will still make a profit by box-splitting.
