Hitachi SS-58X omni-directional speakers, one has a mark on the top but in general they are OK, these give a spacious 3D sound and cope with awkward spaces. £40 collected.

Pair of Tannoy 4-pin plugs for Monitor series speakers (Golds etc), wired up to some decent quality OFC speaker cable (just under 1m). £25 posted.

I'm also considering breaking up my study system - Dual 1019, Quad 33/303, Denon all in one FM/DAB/CD jobbie that has an amp but also an analogue out (which I've been using into the Quad), and a pair of JPW P1s - fun as it is its I'm just not using it in there. But I'll list these as and when.

That passive pre looks to be a bargain Tom. They look like dact pot and switch in there?

I don't know anything about it except that it sounds ace!

[Ali Tait]

[Spev]

[montesquieu]

Hi Tom
I'm interested in the Clearaudio tool -

[montesquieu]

Bugle, preamp and clearaudio all appear to be sold, pending funds.

Hitachi speakers, Audiophile Base 04 and Tannoy cables still available.

Think they are Elma.

[Ali Tait]

Or at least the selector switch is, think you're right about the SA being DACT.

[Idlewithnodrive]

I'll have the Bugle please Tom ?

Thanks

[Spev]

Hi Mike, I just sent Tom payment for the bugle. If it doesn't work out here I'll give you a shout if that's ok?

No worries at all James. Thanks for letting me know.

[montesquieu]

I must say I am surprised there isn't a taker yet for the isolation platform, this can take a large turntable (which is what I was using it for), a giant amp or two huge monoblocks with ease. I've reduced the price by £20 since its last outing on here.

Audiophile base sold :)
