Probably because the sub-forum is titled "General hi-fi discussion". I would likely have done the same to be honest.

And what ELSE does it say, Graham? Allow me to remind you:


Anything not covered specifically in the categories below goes HERE.


Oh, look... There's a specific category below, called Analogue Art, and what does it say should be discussed there:


Turntables and all analogue SOURCE equipment and ancillaries.


Remind me, what is this thread discussing (there's a clue in bold, above)? Honestly, I despair... Why bother creating specific areas for certain discussions, if folk can't be bothered to read where they should go? :rolleyes:

No - that was to accommodate the 24 pairs of speakers. My father was getting fed up with quite a few of them filling his garage.

[PLINIUS]

Bugger, forgot about the Technics SL2000 & 135O in the spare-room cupboard. So 10.

[NRG]

29 is just plain greedy! I'm not in that class! :eek:

Ones I've sold:
P-112D
Dual 505
Technics belt drive, cant recall the name.
SL110
Logic Tempo
LP-12 (Full spec at the time)

The one I really regret selling is the Logic, still kills me I sold it for the LP-12...the power of marketing eh!?

[Wakefield Turntables]

once I get the 301 and the 1210 back from being repaired and fettled I intend getting rid of the alphason and lp12, then i'll just be down to 2, that is until something takes my fancy :doh:
