Meters are too small. These will improve the sound of your system (as analogue meters ALWAYS DO) to a much greater extent:Quote:

The amp it's stood on looks interesting.
This is 50 quid cheaper: http://ebay.co.uk/itm/264737305221
But as the man says, they're too small.
Have a couple of these for a preamp: http://eBay.co.uk/itm/321236001999
But if you you're going to get meters, get - BIG ones. McIntosh ones 8" x 4":

Tannoy Audio Metric speakers in scruffy non-original condition at £995. Optimistic to say the least, I wouldn't offer a tenth of that even if I wanted them, which I don't!

And no, they are not dual concentrics!

Only a real dummy would pay his price. Unfortunately, there are a few about.
Looks interesting. Musical Fidelity X-Cans headphone amp, upgraded with Audio Note capacitors.

Oh for goodness sake, there’s other nice stuff on there you know. At this rate, you might as well just rename this bloody thread to “crappy old Tannoys on eBay” :(
Charming.
Yo, grumpy-chops, has your hot tub sprung a leak, or is it you've finally discovered that Land Rovers and B&O are crap?:ner::DQuote:

'Not Tannoy' rarity from JVC.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JVC-4VN-8...oAAOSwzKpexmZ~
'Not Tannoy' Quad Vena at a sensible price.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QUAD-VENA...0AAOSwO1de61Rq
But you'd need two pairs of Tannoys to get the best from it, so it could get expensive - have you spotted any suitable 'bargains' Geoff?Quote:

But surely, the pans are a bargain in anyone's language.
Seriously... how on earth does he think he will get anything like that .. !! ? More like £150Quote:

space ships for sale....

Only i dont think they are made from copper!Quote:

Set here with WOODEN OAK HANDLES! That would SERIOUSLY add to the Nemo experience in my book. Do look to have seen a bit of action though:

Ortofon Quintet Black mc here for someone https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ortofon-Q...8AAOSwkJ1e5TJz
It is the original with the boron cantilever. The later versions have a sapphire cantilever instead (Quintet Black S), due to a global shortage of boron, so Ortofon decided that the boron would be for their mc's above the Quintet Black.
I've had one of these and they were/are regarded as an mc bargain at new price and I can only agree.
Shibata stylus, boron cantilever, it is quality and a quality performer.
Detailed, smooth, balanced - think a refined upgrade over the excellent 2M Black mm.
Doubt you'd get a better mc at £425, so if you've ever wanted to try one.... Seller accepting offers as well, so this probably could be had for £400 :eek:
I messaged the seller - who I do not know incidentally :) (he has 100% positive feedback over 995 transactions). He replied immediately as below:
Hi
Yes the Quintet Black is the first version. It s in excellent condition as I've kept it as a spare. It s been used lightly for around 50 hours so plenty of life ahead of it.
Jon
I'd have this myself for use after my Cadenza has worn, but funds don't permit at the mo :(
Don't be tempted. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MISSION-7...kAAOSwZwld0vUL
This is not 'the' Mission 774 arm. It's a 774 LC, a budget item from Japan and would normally sell for around £100.
Nicely presented as well.... notQuote:

I remember when you could buy a new Acos Lustre GST-1 arm for £39.95 (an ADC 10E Mk.IV cartridge cost the same and was probably the better bargain). This was about forty years ago though :).Quote:

To be fair the SME "-R" arms are difficult to find and will be expensive (a cursory look on the web showed few available, and all were priced at well above $1,000).Quote:

So can I. In fact I bought a second ADC 10E Mk.IV off ebay about a year ago for almost the same amount. :)Quote:
