Maybe, but it was still a cock-up saying there were no speakers.

If you look closely the speaker cables appear to be plugged in to the back of the unit ....
more likely to be that he's tried them, and knows the stereo is fecked.Quote:

Something of a bargain if it is what it says it is ... but I can't figure out his cryptic words at the bottom of the listing:

This guy has a load of speakers at reasonable prices and in good condition... Here's some tannoys he has https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F202271287529
Shame it's collection only
Yes, he has a couple of pairs I’d like. But Norwich is a bit of a trek!Quote:

Braun DD Turntable https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Braun-PS4...4AAOSwwBNaq~Xl
Seller offering bespoke granite plinths here. Could be ideal for turntables and speakers. Looks like he can turn out any sort of design.

What the heck are these, Dynatron Tannoys? Looks like Dynatron cabinets wearing Tannoy DC1000 badges to me.

Look to be in very good shape too!Quote:

I agree its nice but I'm not convinced it's direct drive. The four speeds make this unlikely and many Braun decks of this era were hybrid belt/idler drive. In addition, various places online purport to sell a belt for it...Quote:

It's not, but too be fair to the seller the range are often (incorrectly) cited as 'direct drive'.Quote:

A desicated pre-amp?

Bet it sounds like a dried up old prune.
And he still managed to spell it incorrectly desiccate is the correct spelling although as we know he means dedic.......
Sansui Alpha AU a907DR
Serious velvet glove power house flagship from Sansui. Regarded as one of their best.
Very rare in UK spec and sought after.
Stonking build and quality - 32kgs dual mono construction, top grade electronics, 2 x 160w @ 8ohms :eek: Neutral, natural and detailed - a stunner - you'll wait a long time for another.
If I didnt already have my new AU a707 DR (one down ) I'd be sorely tempted to snag this
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sansui-In...QAAOSw-b9axjGZ
Vintage seventies Mordaunt Short MS235 speakers in Birmingham. Bit of a classic these. £125 or offer! Worth grabbing.

Stone cold bargain - Brand New Ortofon 2M Black £275, free postage - surely this will fly https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ortofon-2...0AAOSwoGNazmPA
Hmm I’m very wary these days of sellers photos not showing the tip or cantilever.
I thought that too, and the stylus guard is wrong colour [emoji6]Quote:

Big beefy Onkyo integrated amp. Looks like it could go cheap. Very nice quality stuff Onkyo. A bit 'below the radar' for most.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Onkyo-A-9...53.m1438.l2649
£3000 for a butchered and bastardised pair of Tannoy Cheviots!! :eek:
Where are the original tweeter controls? Why is there an 'add-on' tweeter anyway? What's behind the cheapo 'disco speaker' grilles?
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pair-of-F...0AAOSwYNpazlKB
But they are “intergrated” and apparently have massive “base”! [emoji13]Quote:

Tried to go and see this as it's just up the road, got a story about it being in Kent at the moment hmmm .. anyway if it stays cheap I might bid could be fun to have a play. Not sure if that's a tube amp in there or not?
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232730341...&sojTags=bu=bu
Nice. The G88 turntable is a goodie! The amp is a valve Cadet III and should sound pleasant enough. I'd be interested to know what's in the speakers, at a guess maybe Wharfedale Super RSDD 10 full rangers?Quote:

And they're only three grand. That means my near mint ones must be worth ten grand ;).Quote:

I had the same with an Ortofon MC 25FL I bought from eBay as a spare to go with the one I bought from Grant.Quote:

In none of the adverts was it mentioned that it was bent and the photos were carefully angled to not show the bend.
Those Quad speakers are new to me. I thought the only speaker Quad had made before the electrostatic in 1955, was their corner ribbon speaker. Interesting!Quote:
