  1. Hi Jeff,

    Thanks for the tip - I'll check that out

    Cheers,
    Marco.

    Marco,Go to Bendy birds and look at the browser Opera 11.01 for older computers,very fast and secure.
  3. Hi Steve,

    Yes, that's a point, but ultimately you're the one in control. So all you'd have to do is stipulate on the Ebay ad that the speakers must be sold as complete units.

    I think you'll find that, although the drivers are arguably the most desirable part, their BBC heritage and Lockwood cabinets, and their originality, will add to their appeal

    On Friday, I'll be bringing my pre and power valve amps (around 10K worth of amplification), so we'll find out what the Lockwoods are made of!

    When you look out the DVD player, double check that there are phono outputs on the back for connecting to a separate amplifier, as it wouldn't be good to get there and discover we can't listen to my amps because we don't have a source to connect to it.

    ATB,
    Marco.

    Hi Marco

    Have been PMing Andy and he has made a point that some bidders would only want the drivers, which is something I hadn't considered. As such I'm going to hold back from posting a description, so we can have a full discussion after you've heard them on Friday.

  5. Hi Dave,

    Great to hear from you again - I thought you'd totally abandoned us!

    Hope you are keeping well

    Your offer is very well timed, as we've just opened up a new AV section of the forum, so I'm sure the TVs will go down very well!

    So, carry on and do the necessary in the trade room

    ATB,
    Marco.
  6. Hi Marco, hope you are well, it's been ages since I visited here, now I am back and already asking for a favour!! I have acquired some high end plasma TV's and monitors including a nearly new 63 inch Fujitsu and a nearly new Loewe Spheros Individual 52. I know they are not really hifi but am hoping that you would not object to me listing them here. I am going to be selling them at seriously low prices so hopefully some of the AOS members will get some serious bargains.
    Pleaes let me know what you think, I don't want to upset the apple cart on my first day back :-)
    All the best,
    Dave.
  7. Hi mate,

    The Rek O Kut is a great turntable, but beware that there is next to no parts or servicing available for it, so tread carefully, and make sure everything is in full working order!

    No idea what it might be worth, though. Fully functioning it should be as good as 301, but like I said, it's a much more risky purchase - so good luck!

    Marco.

    Hi Marco, I was wondering if I could ask you a question.... I'm able to buy a Rek O Kut model V Deluxe Transcription Turntable 16 ln and wanted your opinion... Is this a good piece? Is it worth having? Any idea what it might be worth? Would this be better then a Gerrard 301?

    Thanks!!
  9. Hi Gerard,

    No worries - hopefully he'll have picked it up. He checks the forum most days. I'd be tempted though to fulfil the 5 post criterion and send him a PM - good luck!

    Marco.

    Hi Marco,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I must have missed the 5 post criteria... I have been trying to send a PM to Hugo to purchase a collar and I think I have missed the boat on that one as the order book appears closed. I hope he can find an extra one. I sent him a Visitor's message and posted in the thread, but I have yet to hear back...

    Best regards,

    Gerard
