    Well I could have been interested, but I'm not buying anything without seeing some good pictures and descriptions

    By the way Pete, if you check the sites terms regarding selling, there is a sticky entitled 'Rules for selling - READ BEFORE POSTING PLEASE'

    ALL sales threads MUST include a photo of the actual item for sale, or if a picture is not available, please link to a comparable image of the item.

    So can we maybe have a group hug and start again, as I don't think you will get many takers without pictures and with luck you may get your sale and everyone wins

    I guessed that Marco, but I have never been known for my subtlety!

    I really would actually like to see some darn pictures as I'm considering a TT - see what you guys have done . . . I only came here to read about Stan's DAC And you had me box swapping at the weekend trying a budget DVD player with a Digital output against my MF A3 CDP. I must have looked quite funny sat with a blindfold and a broom handle!


    I'm seriously starting to think I'm loosing the plot

    Love it! Wish you'd taken some pictures though - although hitting the shutter button with the broom as well may have proved a challenge!

    As stated the unit is not mine and so previously I was unable to acquire the requisite permission to photo the TT, as it was locked away .

    here are some quick snaps for those of you who have expressed an interest in this item ...thats humour again for those who are deficient in its appreciation !



    I do not know why the perspex was screwed to the plinth ...any ideas ?

    this is a closer shot of the arm



    a little over exposed.......... I'll fiddle with it later

    The VB implementation of Photo Albums leaves something to be desired. It seems it doesn't treat it's pictures like proper images

    I've copied your pictures and made them IMG linkable. Let me know if you update any of them.
