Finally decided to downsize my t/t collection and one or two other things. So to start with: More t/t's to come later and a Truth preamp!
Everything in good working order.
1. Lenco G.88 in custom plinth with Origin Live Silver Mk3 tonearm
Price for the whole thing £750
Or £400 for the G.88 and £375 for the tonearm
No cartridge included

2. Tenuto platter mat bought this year £280 plus p&p
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191026/4101397ec5b962f0cf41ee3a5a423aa4.jpg
3. Transcendent 300B monos with separate power supply. Some scratches to the top plates otherwise excellent. 1.5 watts of single ended magic so only for really efficient speakers. Probably 95dB and above. I've used them with Khorns and sounds great. Loads of life left in the valves as they have been used sparingly.
Price £800. Kit cost $1600 plus vat and import duty, so quite a bargain.

Obviously the t/t and valve amps collection only or meet up somewhere within an hour of Welshpool.
I am in Birmingham on Wednesday and Thursday's between 4.00-6.00pm if that's easier....near the city centre.(only Wednesday next week though)
Payment either bank transfer or Paypal family and friends

I bought my G99 from Nigel. He does a really top job and is a gent to deal with. If you're looking for a G88, you won't find a safer bet !

I've known Nigel for a few years now and you will not meet a more genuine guy.

Absolute top banana.

Happy to store things here (Wolverhampton) if it helps facilitate a sale.

Just to add that the G88'has the Jolyon bearing upgrade and consequently the plinth is taller ( and heavier) than normal to accommodate it. Dimensions are 460mm wide x410mm deep x 110mm high.
Also the 300B monos are of course OTL amps.

I've had the genuine pleasure of meeting Nigel on a couple of occasions. He is a true gent, a generous host and his audio gear is absolutely top notch - and that's why I've been holding back on this post. I'm very interested in the OL Silver tonearm, but I don't want to unnecessarily split up this gorgeous deck/arm combo.

If someone wants the deck and arm please go for it. But if there are no takers, I'd very much like to purchase the arm if possible.

These are a bargain for an OTL amp!
Will be putting on eBay this evening along with the Lenco G.88

Are you sure the amps are only 1.5wpc, I would have thought they'd get up to 6-10wpc with all those 300bs.

Positive Lawrence....I know it seems impossible. However with efficient speakers it's more than enough believe me!

They look similar but the set I am selling are single ended not push pull which acounts for the difference in output I believe.

Ok but I'm still not convinced that 4 paralleled 300Bs per side won't be at least 4wpc.

I appreciate your comments guys but I am sure that they produce 1.5 watts and nothing more.
Sound great with the right speakers though.
