The trouble is that the design luvvies hoover the stuff up to pose it (rather than use it) on their Vitsoe shelves so you'll be very lucky to grab a bargainQuote:

A little pricey in my opinion - last Braun LE710s I saw (Ok, might have been LE 610s) sold for about £60.Quote:

Canton continued to make the Braun designs after Braun stopped making them - but any collector wants to see the Braun name on the back!
That original paper sticker costs about £100, the speakers £20..
My wife just asked me why I choked:eek:Quote:

You don't see them very often

Denon AU-310 SUT just listed at £119.

Sounds like they've got something to hide and don't want that issue being something to come back and bite them later.. Assume you were saved from a big hassle.Quote:

Couldn't work out the finish on this overpriced Sanyo turntable? Is it painted or all wood? Or smeared with iodine?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SANYO-TP-1...-/321396488084
Looking at past auctions, it was listed back in Jan with slightly better description - apparantly is some kind of alloy painted as wood but looks more like someone's smeared something nasty across it.
Sony Ps X6 for £65 BIN or offer! Don't know much about them to be honest but they look decent direct drives and love the TV style touch sensitive buttons!
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-Ps-X6...-/121333427212
Perhaps some proper studio speakers for someone? Quested 215s: ATC mids, 2 x 15" Guass drivers! I guess these are from before ATC's own SCM300 Pros.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Quested-21...-/261468969640
£1550 with 22 hours to go... the kind of thing for which the size is a pain so go relatively cheap for what you get. There were some similar Questeds in Leeds a while ago with seperate 18" driver enclosures for £1800.
This is what you want for those moments where your other half swears they told you something:

or just playing games of "The Bill" at home.
And who doesn't do that from time to time? I always play the bent copper.Quote:

Cant help but wonder what amps inside this piece of crap ? Naim user manual, Naca4 and a lavender din>din ? :hmm:

Aaaaaaaaaaargh!

Well they are in nice condition. You could do worse providing you took a zero off the price that is...Quote:

Must be something good in that lot, pity the photos so bad
That was a bargain http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/B-W-DM4-Mo...p2047675.l2557
Maybe, but it wouldn't make me want them.Quote:

The BC1 is in a different league to the DM4, despite the visual similarities. I quite like the BC1, even though the bass is a bit odd (due to the chuffy little port I reckon).Quote:

I've owned a couple of pairs of DM4s and didn't like them to be honest. The little D5 is better.
Nice vintage Trio KA8100 amp. Needs a little love. Finishes tomorrow morning so be quick.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1113456090...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
That is a serious amp and worth some effort to sort.Quote:

Shame it is in Croatia. The good news is I bought one recently that I found in Glasgow which was a lot easier to collect.
ES on the cheap http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/sony-inter...item4d1cc14d5d
Some cheap SACDs. Mark Knopler's Shangri-La £6 new. Some Bob Dylon (if you like that sort of thing). Bit surprised.
I know of someone 'binning' a set of these.. need some serious TLC like but don't sound bad.Quote:

Just needs a new wallwart... Probably...
Going to view those "Braun L710/1" on Thursday... Should be interesting.
Sellers willing to accept 50% of asking price if paying cash.
Someone's got the horn... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Giant-Vita...item3ce1387ba1
Original 'KA2000' i think he'll find it was bought more than 40 years ago.

You shouldn't self-flagilate by looking at past listings and all the things you've missed!Quote:

Blimey - identical to the unit I have! £100 was optimistic, though, given that mine started at 99p about 5 years ago and, although I bid £50 or so on it, I won it for.....99p! Went to pick it up and it was in such superb condition, I gave the bloke £30 for it. The outer case is a bit faded but the mixer genuinely looks like it's never been used.Quote:

It's a very good unit though and the turntables have electronic auto-cueing - you drop the arm on the record and hit the button, and the turntable winds forward until the music starts and then stops and winds back a pre-determined amount, then sits there ready to go - when you hit the go button it's up to speed as the music starts.
Might be worth a cheeky offer if anyone's interested as it looks like it didn't sell...
They're the L75S variant and the arms are an original fitment, made by Jelco.Quote:
