    Default AOS Swapshop!

    Just an idea, but I have various hifi related bits and bobs that are not really worth enough to sell but worth enough not to throw away. Rubber isolation feet, Media Centre remotes that will work on Windows, Android and Kodi, the odd cable, various adapters, etc..

    Just wondering if anyone else has accumulated such curiousios and if it is worth having a swapshop thread so we can offer the odd potentially useful thingy and have a bit of fun trying stuff out?

    I'd be up for that, if Marco's ok with it I'll post a few bits I have. Might be an idea to give an approximate indicative trade in value as I might want to swap a few bits for a single higher value item for example.

    Looking to swap my Avondale amplifiers for either a high end cd player or valve amp/amps. My amps are Avondale Grad 1 with TPX2 power supply and NCC300 spec 100 watt Voyager monoblock power amplifiers.

    Default Unison Research Smart 845 monoblock SE valve power amps

    Swap my Unison Smart 845 SE monoblock power amps for hi end CDP or Phono stage of similar value. Excellent condition in full working order. Re advertising after the fall of a sale. Collection from TS25 or meet within a reasonable distance adheing to social distancing. I have boxed these amps for collection though i do not want to ship them via courier as they are fragile.

    Yep I've got plenty of cables and a few valves I don't have time to do a decent sales post on but wouldn't have a problem with swapping for other bits and bobs.
