Good job it's all the way over in France, there's about 5 things I want just on page one.

Just looked at page 1. I've never seen a leak stereo 60 before. JMR speakers look lovely. What are the arms on the two TD126s? Look a bit like the better Sony arms but I've never seen them mounted on any other deck.

I've not got much idea about tonearms. Yes I had eyes on those JMR as well. Everything looks to be near mint too.

If it was in this country I would deffo bid on that Revox CD player, always wanted one of those. Just so much excellent kit there. If I had the cash and the space I'd be bidding on at least half the items.

If you read the descriptions, the arm in LOT 7 is a Jelco 750, and for LOT 37 the arm is a Dynavector DV505.

They caught my eye too. I'd like 'em!

(and the compact JBL speakers with what looks like an LE8 full range driver + ABR)

The problem is that post Brexit it would be pretty difficult and expensive to buy anything and get it back to the UK.

It's rarely a good idea to actually buy equipment at these auctions wherever they are, you've got the house fees on top of the final price and items often fetch bids well above their usual market value even before you take that into account.

Just thought people would enjoy looking at all the superb equipment.

Luck that the 'Great British Public' (TM) have saved me then :-(

Yes I am also happy, if it was just down the road I doubt very much if I could resist. :)

I've heard the Paragon system. It was definitely not to my taste.

It never got good reviews. Definitely a white elephant.

Being in the 0.01% of people on here to whom it is not useless, I shall take a look.

Nice kit but also nice estimates [emoji17]

Yes, I did mention that it is in France in the o/p. It is presented here for entertainment purposes only.

Nothing to stop someone outside France from bidding, winning, and organising a courier to collect.

Fees appear to be 28% of sale price though so not likely to be any bargains.
