Would love to try some AR3a's again though
I had the complete setup 5 years ago, AR amplifier, AR tuner & AR3a's all in mint condition but the amplifier developed a 50hz hum so I ended up selling the lot for £300 to some chap in Italy! .... If only I knew then what I know now

Bloody ell! He must have got it out of a skip. Looks like it was photographed at the dump. In full working order apart from the fact that it is FAULTY. Special dust included. Bloody fugly as well.
Buy Bose...And get your parking validated!.

Bargains on ebay?
That is funny:
It is in full working order, however the volume/gain variable resistor needs replacing as there are gaps in the control and make the amp unstable. Also there is some mains hum which can be heard with the music, so I suspect a capacitor needs replacing. These are only minor repairs which should take very little time to correct. The amp is well laid out and have photgraphed the inside . It is a bit dusty on the inside so could do with a clean.
In other words "There's all sorts wrong with it, it's humming like Sizewell B and it needs sand blasting to get all the shite off it". But apart from that it's brilliant.
Aye, t'is character that...

The LSTs were something else! I never knew AR made an amp and tuner.
