Technics SL-M3 turntable - looks interesting :-)
Lovely deck and a very impressive performer but limited to P-mount cartridges. The price is a little optimistic IMHO, however.
And from the seller who veneered every tt plinth, look at his other items for sale :)
Lol. Look nice bit chingy though.Quote:

An hr to go. Tascam 134
These Rotel RP 1500's are going up in value....:)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rotel-RP-1...p2047675.l2557
I have one! in original box , cellophane wrapping , 2 brand new head shells with 2 brand new shure cartridges , i'll hang onto....:eek:
I saw that. Twenty five years ago the average Jap turntable was £10 to £15 quid at boot sales. I bought loads of them and other Hi-Fi for pennies.Quote:

Quite similar to my kef caras. Worth a bit less than his £250 bin
It doesn't look like he's added a reserve to the listing, could be a mistake on his part.Quote:

Aye they are nice. Damn near mint too considering. Alas they are in the storage wardrobe thingie. I have a few others in the storage too... also 9 amps now lol
Not A Bargain...

"Economical with the truth" arsewipe seller claims "In good working order" how would he even know.. he even "forgets" to mention the missing stylus..
there are far too many of this type of item all over eBay these days.
Lol...I have the same hoarding problems as you mate. At the moment I have 6/7 amps and 8 pairs of speakers. My best amp purchase to date is a technics suv-707 which is mint, no scratches or dents, and it'll stay with me for many years to come.Quote:

I had a pair of BC1's for many years. The bass units look like they may well be right with one a later factory replacement. they were only rated @ 40W and I blew one of mine and ended up "upgrading" to the 55W's direct from Spendor.Quote:

The bass units will be prone to sagging, and I doubt if the joker selling them really has a clue as to how they should/might sound but if the bass units are "right" they are still a good price for the parts.
What's a Twitter????
Love this:Quote:

Well, yes, it would be.
A pair of these technics just sold on this forum, they are not mint like the ones sold here though...

Surprising .. to me.
In MY part of the world Ebay is for buying crap Chinee Junk items for almost free, (ebay shares are on serious decline as result)
Or Bric a Brac from octogenarian twits trying to supplement their sad circumstances
Then I've noticed that old Yama 350 Motorcycles..as I have a couple..which trade for ~1000$ 'Here' are typically listed for ~ 7500 to 10,000 gbps on UK Ebay.
How is this possible?
Half the discretionary income yet quintuple the pricings.. for Tat ?
One cannot make this stuff up.
If you mean the Yamaha 350 lc then they have a cult status here in the uk :)
As do the H1 and H2 Kawasaki two strokes. Clean original examples fetching maybe £10,000 or more now.
Should have kept mine :rolleyes:.

Those are nice. Collect only. Shame it's in Warwickshire. Too much of a drive for my liking.Quote:

I had the Technics EPC-305MC moving coil cart. It was very nice indeed. Slightly different character to the MC25FL, but as enjoyable. Not tried their MMs.Quote:

I sold a pair of those about three years ago.
whats you review on sound quality Geoffrey? :)Quote:

Cant really go far wrong at that price Dan
They look interesting tbh and would like to know what you think of them Dan
Apparently they have different twiters:lol:Quote:

Theirs a pair on eBay ending today @ £29 its a BIN price so take a look and give them a go if you want to if not i will put an offer in for these too great for the money ideal for my just put something on to play music with no fuss.
If it's of interest. The drivers would probably work rather well in a small horn or OB speaker.
They'll be nice quality. Quite likely made for Technics by Coral or Foster (Fostex).
Thank you for the info Dan, i've just bought a pair of technics ca-1060s and will give these a try for now. Thanks for the pointer and I'll keep an eye out for some in the future. They look like they would work really well as rear surrounds for a av systemQuote:

Wharfedale Dovedale III crossover. £50 for one!! Barmy. That's about all I'd pay for a complete pair of the speakers.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-VINTA...YAAOxytBZSQ0Bb
I paid more than that for empty cabs :eyebrows: quite well made too.

rotel tuner finishing soon.
A rare opportunity. A new Denon DL-160 high output MC cartridge. They were discontinued a while back. Very pleasant sounding and definitely a step up from the less refined DL-110.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232138087583?ul_noapp=true
No longer the bargain it once was, but very competitive even at this price. German seller.
Yes, a bit pricey tbh...not really worth that amount ime...but it is rare being new. Usualy go for a ton plus second hand
I can't think of anything around the £200 mark new that could sound as pleasant. Grado maybe, but they are not as well regarded as they once were.Quote:

One thing I did like about the DL-160, apart from the typical MC 'niceness', was the way it didn't reveal surface noise as much as most.
