What a top idea ... !! Now we have a real reason to scour flea bay every night ... ... prices will rocket for 1 pund interconnects Seriously though ,,, it sounds like certain sources will be cheaper to get than others .. It might be tough to get a vinyl replay sysyem going for &100 that will compete with digital .. ( backlash expected ... ) .
A couple of ideas for rules though .. ... proof of purchase to be produced for each item ... and I don't think free gifts blagged off yer mate should be allowed ... Some of us here have much more access to these kinds of mates than most of us to be sure ....... ... Waddya think .. ?? ...... But I'm up for it .....
Ohh ... And who are the judges ,,,,, aghhhhhh .......

I deleted my post as I was naughty and broke the rules

Well close to it but no cigar
I got a philips CD 630 I picked up for £18 and a Nad 3130 I picked up for £28 have some Belkin interconnects £4 but no speakers and speaker cable within the right price I actually use the Nad and interconnects

Alex, i think you need to sit down & have a good think about the rules of this competition If i'm not mistaken you said that whatever it is that's used must not already be owned by the person entering it! Sort out what you want properly & get a supermod or admin to edit it into the first post so we know exactly what the rules are Then put a post up linking to the first just to remind those that can't be arsed to go back through everything
It appears some members bought kit overnight
I'm watching a pair of speakers on fleabay right now, they'll need some work though But i'll stick by the "not owning it now rule" & buy everything from henceforward

Ah "the not owning it now" rule.
So, in some ways, I didn't break the rules - as I no longer have two of the components I listed!

Barry, Same here, I no longer have the Sonab's.
I think we need to define a starting point as "now" is not definitive enough. If I bought an amp and collect yesterday that's OK by the rules, but if today I buy some speakers I will now already own the amp and that's breaking the rules
I see a paradox unless I buy the complete system in one go.
