They also give plenty of scope to play around with different drivers, horns, crossovers on the upgrade path

I'd swear they're the ones I pointed out last week.

Nice ! Just think, you couldn't buy one single knackered old LS3/5a for that :D

When i had the 'Pembrokes' i was using Manticore 'Mantra'/Manticore 'Magician'/Mayware 'MC-7V'+'T24'.. Quad '44'/'405/2'

Sounded wonderful.

I quite fancy Mikes [Idlewithnodrive] system PS-6750/TA-5650/Castle Conway... Looks lovely too :cool: I am a bit of a Sony fanboi though :mental:

Just a crazy price... I just can't believe they are worth that sort of money, I bet the seller is well happy though ;)

Nothing is worth nothing, Things are worth what you get for em.. Fads drive prices up so it seems.
