Usedhifishop.co.uk at Bracknell Audio Fayre

[greenhomeelectronics]

Hi guys just to remind you all that we will be at the Bracknell Audio Fayre next Sunday - April 17th. As well as showing our brand new Apollon Audio valve amplifier I will also be taking a load of stuff that I have had stashed in my store room eg:
Nice Pair Spendor BC1A's - all working
Garrard Zero100B
Lenco GL75
Marantz Direct Drive turntable
Huge Harman Kardon A/V amplifier
Monitor Audio R300MD - Boxed

We will also be doing a show special on our Sterling Black Mamba cables at £55.00 per pair (limited to the first 15 pairs)
I will also be taking a lot of the stuff that is listed on our web site and a big box full of speaker drivers, I will probably be taking a couple of big boxes of manuals and old mags as well.
It should be well worth a visit, I understand there are a lot of other traders booked in, it was a good do last year.
Hope to meet some of you there,
Dave.

Thanks, Dave. I didn't know about this but shall most likely pop in as Bracknell is not far from me. I take it there will be vinyl on sale? I'll come and say hello.

How much for the Zero 100? I take it that it's the belt driven one if a "B" or "SB?"

MartinT Stamford Audio will be there with a huge pile of quality vinyl, I'm not taking any myself as I only have 2 tables and they are going to be quite well stacked.

The Zero 100B is indeed belt drive. I have not got to test it yet, I will either sell it as a project or as working, either way it's not going to be dear.
We cleared a Hifi business last week so have a mountain of stuff to go through, I don't have time to do it all so there will be a fair few DIY bargains going.

Dave.

I wish you could do an inventory of sorts and give "us" first dibs... Any chance?

How old was the business? Original Shure M75 styli/part worn M75 EJ & ED are on my list (I gave away my last good ED and broke the remaining one :(), Garrard Lab 80 idler and headshell PLEASE someone????? Garrard SL95B (rather than a Zero 100SB ideally)..

[greenhomeelectronics]

DSJR, the Zero100 has a shure cart and ok stylus on it, I am pretty sure I have some new old stock Shure stylii - I have over 500 to go through so it may take a while. That's the only thing on your list that I have.
The Zero 100 is actually an SB, it's in very good nick but it does not start automatically. It auto stops and runs ok, it has no lid, although I may find one in the massive pile of stuff I can't get to at the moment.
If you wanted it as is and can pick it up it's yours for 40 quid with the cartridge.
How's that sound?

[DSJR]

Interesting, but it's the new-old-stock Shure styli that are the most needy for me right now. The Zero 100SB came in the UK with an M93E, which is a 75-EJ style stylus but with the "taller" moulding. I have one of these styli coming from the US, but I'd really like an original M75-ED stylus if possible, one with the thinner cantilever (I'm not fussy am I?).

To anyone interested, practically all old auto Garrard decks suffer from what I affectionately call "Garrard Glue." The lubricating grease hardens up over the decades and seizes the mech parts, preventing them from working properly. A full strip down is often the only cure.

Dave, thanks for your replies. I know you give good service (you have supplied me in the past) and I'll be in touch. In the meantime, please see if you have a stylus as described above :)

[greenhomeelectronics]

I will see what I can do. I bought a Luton bodied transit absolutely full of stuff last week so I am a bit overloaded at the moment. I will see if I can get my Mrs to have a look through, can't make any promises but will do my best.
Dave.

[DSJR]

Many thanks Dave, you're a star :) If there are any Goldring D110 original styli out there, I can think of one Welsh Glaswegian of Italian extraction who'd HAPPILY take them from you :)

[Marco]

Indeed! ;)

I shall be there, helping out my mate Tony. We are both hoping that we don't come away with more stuff than we're taking!

Dave (DSJR) - my rebodied (? by Slate Audio) Shure cartridge is looking for a new home, if you are interested (see the thread that I started some time ago at http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?t=9009&highlight=mystery+shure+cartridge )

[serendipitydawg]

Thanks for alerting me to this event. I have booked a stall at short notice. I will be selling vinyl and also my Tandberg 10XD reel to reel,which would make a good landmark to spot me by!

I'd love to meet any other AOS members "in the flesh"

[greenhomeelectronics]

Hi Guys, do come and say hello, we are taking veritable mountain of stuff with us. We will have our valve amp on show, we also have a good selection of classic stuff as well as some more modern stuff. As well as the stuff previously listed we also have:

Pair Chartwell Ls3/5a's
Pair Rogers ls4a
Nad 315BEE
Arcam CD72
Pure DAB 701Es:rolleyes:prices.
Huge selection of stylii
Brand new Advance audio Hybrid valve amps - more of a novelty than serious hifi but good looking little amps.
Pair of TEQ Varioprojector V speakers with manual.
Lenco GL75
And loads of other bits, depending on how much we can cram in the van / round the tables.
Dave.

I am not putting prices on stuff here, I am going on holiday on Monday, I won't have time to post stuff. It's all at giveaway prices, anything that does not sell will get listed when I get back. If you want a bargain, come along and have a haggle.
Dave.

[MartinT]

It was nice to meet you today, Dave. I didn't come looking for any hardware but almost wished I had as I could have assembled a sweet little system for peanuts by selecting wisely. Picked up a few LPs so went home happy.
