    Goldring GL75 turntable with Leak Stereo 30 amp in speaker console (no speakers).

    Untested but looks all there, bids open at £29.99. In Arundel.

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    That system is near identical to what the landlord of my student digs used: GL75 (with, I think a Shure M75) via a Leak Stereo 70 into a KEF Kit 3 with a cast cement enclosure.

    The Leak Stereo 30 will sound pretty dated now. Based on a design by Jack Dinsdale, it used germanium transistors.

    Nasty speakers for a mere £65? Described as "overall nice condition", they look as though they've been dragged out of a skip! In good condition they'd be a fiver at a boot sale.

    'Made in Norway' - got to be a story behind that. Captive speaker cable suggests they were part of a low price music centre. The fancy Sony ones didn't have captive leads on the speakers.
