Bargains on ebay? (Part 2)

"criterion" if singular (i.e. cheap price, or available on eBay), "criteria" if plural (i.e. cheap price and available on eBay).

Cheers, Barry If you'd been my English teacher I may have done better at school. Though I did get my GCE O level (just).

Picked one of these up out of curiosity. A fairly scarce AMC 3000 integrated amp in nice condition.

It's really surprised me. As a development of the NAD 3020 I'd expected it to sound decent, but to my ears it's noticeably better and very pleasant to listen to.

More akin to the Denon PMA250 at least in the look of it?

Sort of vaguely recall AMC from early 90s. HFW might have reviewed one.

Couldn't find a proper review and to my ears it has a different character to the Denon (which was decent enough).

What speakers and source are you using nowadays, Geoff?

Hi Shane, hope you're doing well mate.

Currently, the source is just my old Pioneer PD-S505 Precision CD player. I shall swap over to my Trichord Digital Turntable and Monarchy Audio DAC at some point;

The speakers are home built and rather unusual. They are omnidirectional, using full range 5.5 inch high sensitivity upward firing drivers with reflector/diffusers, in floorstanding 1/8 wavelength transmission line cabinets. They're sounding rather good.

I'll be posting pics on my Deaf Row blog at some time.


Are you using anything interesting?

I have vague memories of your Pioneer PD-S505 but none of the Trichord. I don't recall seeing it when you lived in Southall. Lets face it, we haven't met since 2014!

No HiFi for me at the moment.

Daily drivers are dirt cheapo superlux headphones plugged straight into PC. No dac/amps involved, just don't need them.

Do you also stream, Geoff?

Looking forward to the pics!

Nope. No streaming. Not yet.
