I think they're the same model that Edward gave to me and I recently passed on to Magic. To think I just gave away £699!

They are nice sounding little speakers, but cheaply made. I sold my last pair years ago for forty quid. Wouldn't mind another set to play with, but at a sensible price obviously.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

It just goes to show the unrealistic prices being asked for some audio gear.

If it is the Sony version of the Philips CD101, but using a larger case, then £50 is the most I would pay.

It's nothing to do with Philips (the similar-looking Philips player was the CD-104) but has a rightful place in history as Sony's first ever CD player.
Sadly it's an awful sounding thing, so best treated as a collectable!

Disagree that it is 'awful sounding.' Although it's more than 25 years since I last heard one.
