Unfortunately as I've just bought my umpteenth pair of reasonably large speakers and have my eye on yet ANOTHER pair on eBay at the moment that I've been wanting for years, I am imposing a 'purchasing holiday' on myself for a while.

Not so much for financial reasons, but more mainly because I can barely get into my study/storage room at the moment...:rolleyes:

I think someone on here needs to buy it and let us all know once and for all!

I ued to have a Kenwood Linear tracker that came off their top stack system circa 1987. That was pretty good for what it was. Looks like there is a lot of interest in this one, won't go for pin money.

I had no idea it was possible to spend £8000 on an equipment rack! :eek:

Check out the seller's other items :eyebrows:

Errrrm £12,750 for a pair of speaker cables. Yikes! :stalks:

The "Stereotimes" review he mentions says they cost $799.

OMG - he's asking over 60K for all that gear!

Looks like a fire sale. Either that, or he chose very VERY badly in the first place.

These look intriguing and appear to be very similar to Isonoe feet for a lot less dosh.

They need a threaded stud to fit the Technics, not a threaded hole. They may do the job, but the Isonoes are superb at just twice the price. It's a risky punt.

What has really piqued my interest in this listing Martin is that the chap has developed a magnetically suspended isolation system that will be available from Christmas. I have sent him a message asking if he is considering producing a version for SL12XX's. If so I am willing to give them a try as they could be very good.
