I'll have a look after I've had some food.

Looks nice... you picked up a goody :) looks nice ply too Yacht grade
Yes a bit of a result Grant. I'll check the drivers out and then have a listen to them. These are the M/01 version of the 9710 and supposedly the one to have. Rumour has it they are one of the best full range drivers about. We'll see. Takes a lot to convince me.Quote:

Not bad for £30. :)Quote:

Rehdeko RK50 speakers at a sensible price from Emporium Hi-Fi. These are mega hard to come by.

There's nothing else quite like them!

These are confounding me (yes I know I'm harping on :)).
They are the best full range drivers I've heard (yes, I've owned Lowthers). There's a real immediacy, depth and naturalness to them. They're giving my Tannoys a run for their money and I haven't even got them on the end of a Class A amp yet.

More nutty pricing. It's not worth that much.

The original NXT speaker? (sort of)

Don't bother buying them. I remember these, they sound horrible.
Celestion A1 speakers at the right sort of price. These sound superb!!

Very minor defect.
KEF Coda II speakers in Kingston. £28 'buy it now'.

A "sensible price"???!! I think the decimal point needs moving three places to the left, personally.... :spew:Quote:

depends on size of box and insurance and how rapidly you send. special delivery is expensive on the face of it but is well insured and spends the minimal amount of time in the hands of the carrier.
The seller is Emporium Hi-Fi, so what do you expect?Quote:

That is a beautiful bit of engineering.Quote:

Sadly it is priced accordingly. Worth it I expect.

Good shout, Geoff! SPUs aside, the 25FL is from an era when Ortofon produced genuinely musical sounding cartridges, as opposed to the rather ‘hifi’ ones they do today.Quote:

Yes, the MC25 FL certainly has much of that encompassing 'glow' of the SPU. If it goes at less than £100, somebody is very lucky.Quote:
