    Hi Andy
    To be honest the duff pair were in mint condition with exception to ear pads with flat spots in which i have replacements ready , this second pair are not in good shape, i can then make a perfect working set in mint condition out of the two tho..between the two i paid hardly anything so i'm not too fussed..

    I think my latest purcahse qualifies as a bargain -

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Goodmans-Floor...item27b9aeb9f1

    Use of my 'sad geek' radar identified these as Goodmans 440 High Impact Monitors and I was right! Just down the road from me and £1.78 for a big cabinet, 12" bass driver and some lovely eighties black ash wrap was too good to miss. Naturally they need re-foaming and a bit of TLC but i'm happy.

    Now if only I can find a pair of the 880s, which had the 15" bass driver and 8" midrange....

    Certainly was a bargain Adam! Maybe we need a new challenge - build a system for a tenner!

    I once managed a receiver & a pair of speakers for 99p & picked 'em up from just a few miles down the road.
    I dumped the speakers but I still use the receiver.
