Only 75 miles for me... unfortunately what I've really got my heart set on is 200 miles away, and also ends after the Sansui's and I don't think both are going to be an option! Will see how much these go to...

You could buy it, remove the bits you need and re-sell the rest.![]()

How about a Setton RCS X1000 Receiver?
Less than 100 were made and they cost $3500 34 years ago. Has to be the ultimate in modern retro styling.
