    I get it. I think I'd take a punt up to maybe £350, assuming full working order. If he wants more than that he's probably being unrealistic. No doubt they would cost several thousand if made today but I'd be very surprised if there is any demand for them like there is for the LS3/5a for example.

    Didn't B&W move into amps a while ago, were they Aura or something? Presume these predate those though. Might have been OEM boards by a well known firm.

    'Aura Evolution' - must be 20 or more years ago. I think they were made in Taiwan or Japan by an OEM and distributed by B&W.

    Had a demo of one (with the mirror finish) against a Cambridge P70, I bought the Cambridge.
