just paid £20 for a Ortofon VMS20E MkII off ebay with any luck it'll be here tomorrow before I head off for Scalford so i can maybe give it a try while i'm there:) I've always fancied giving one of these a go and if it turns out to be a pile of crap it's only cost me 20 notes
Got a nice message this morning saying they had already sold them. I'm not surprised!Quote:

That weren't a bargain Andr'e. A year ago, you'd be lucky to get a couple of hundred for such machines I remember..

I saw them when they first went up Chris. I can see the attraction, i guess it's probably the below more than anything:
Shure V15/3
Dynavector (Which looks like a 10X Gold, but not sure)
Grace (Which looks lke a F9 Gold, but not sure)
Audio Technica AT OC-5
(Townshend) EEI 500
Goldring 1000 Series (could be any)
Mission 773 (Moving Magnet version)
