Was that Denys Trickett's shop? He was situated there and had loads of stuff like that.Quote:

It's funny (or sad) to see the prices the Leak and Quad valve amps fetch now. I had four Stereo 20s and a couple of sets of Quad IIs and the most I paid was £40 apart from the last Stereo 20 which cost me £80 and needed rebuilding. The transformers were OK and it was tidy cometically, so with about £20 worth of parts (I had spare valves), I suppose that one totalled £100.
You have almost as much Quad gear as I have! :)Quote:
