    Default SONY TA-FB940R QS Integrated Amplifier

    Has anyone used one of these ? Got the chance of one very cheap so was thinking of using it as a second setup. Reviews look pretty good but would rather hear user reviews.

    Black Rhodium Jazz power cables for amp and turntable, Firebottle mk2 Phono Stage.

    Yes, the UK tuned one, very good amp might be better to ask in blank canvas though

    Thanks for that. My brother has one that has sat in his loft for the past 15yrs but had little use before that. He was wanting £100 for it as it is mint condition. Looked on eBay and seem to go for that and more. Just wanted peoples views as I dont really need it but thought it a bit of a bargain.

    I owned one for a while and they're OK for the money, in the safe, smooth Sony style.
