Deaf Row!

I need to thin the collection down (see last post). What should I flog? Suggestions?

Everything and then afterwards get a Bose Wave.

S.

i would lose 3 tt's. a tonearm,; a couple of carts and a pre or 2. maybe a cd player too. oh and an integrated to start with and see how you feel with the cash.;)

I'd shift the 'jitter busters' and the valve buffer on. Keep all the hi-fi equipment though :D

What's the deal with your Mitsubishi Diatone speakers? Never seen you mention them before.

One of the jitter busters and the valve buffer are integral parts of the system and in use. They make a noticeable improvement.

The Diatone speakers are used by my daughter. They sound pretty good actually. A sort of Japanese equivalent to Wharfedale Dovedale III's, but better made.

Mitsubishi made some great stuff back in the day, shame it is so rare over here. Is the Diatone brand still going? I've seen pictures of their big speakers and they look the business. Never heard any though.

As far as I know it is. We don't see their Hi-Fi gear in the UK, so it's hard to tell.

I think they closed it down in 1999.

I liked their upmarket A&D (Akai & Diatone - Akai was also a part of Mitsubishi in 1980s and early 1990s) lineup.

I didn't know that, but apart from the odd tape or cassette deck in the seventies, I've not paid huge attention to Akai.

Geoff's next upgrade. :D
