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

    I wonder if anybody has SQ quadrophonic sources?

    A bit pricey! I'd guess anyone who needs one would already have the one they bought new in 1974

    I'm thinking of taking a punt on this for my second system as I already have one and like it. In good working condition they normally go for about £700. But...

    Is it likely to be a relatively easy fix by someone competent? The last thing I need is some landfill to add to my growing amplifier collection.

    Depends what is wrong with it, and if parts are still available. But I would have thought any decent repair engineer would be able to fix it for you.

    contact mf and ask them if they still service/repair a5's. and cost. might work out like getting a near new one

    I would prefer to use John Sampson at JS Audio. He is an ex-MF engineer, and has a good rep with repairs/upgrades to MF kit. Or maybe just ask Alan Firebottle to have a play with it.

    In any case I would not bid much on it, and there are already quite a few bids on it. I'll keep an eye on it, see how it goes.

    A question - is there some way i can see how much items sold for on Ebay? With an amp I was looking at a couple of weeks ago, the bidding went past what I was prepared to shell out pretty quickly, so I stopped looking. It has now re-appeared with a BIN price of £450 (due to previous auction-winner being a time waster).

    Just curious.
