    Could be a bargain for someone http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-CA-...item3380e03437

    No sound output, could just be missing the pre-out/power-in jumpers or a dirty tape monitor switch...

    Rare and excellent sounding B&W Concept 90 (CM1 speaker + CM2 sub) speaker system. I've heard these twice and been amazed at how good they were. If I had room I'd buy them! Very special.

    £1250 for a Stereo 20 that is "un-tested and will most likely need a service by the new owner". Er, couldn't the dealer test it? Or am I missing something here ...

    But he says it's rare!

    It's the same colour as the first one I had, which came in a big formica covered Hi-Fi unit, along with the matching pre-amp, tuner, and a mint Garrard 301 (white) and early SME 3009 with Shure cartridge. All for £25! (mind you that was about 1977)

    I was having a browse last night in the audio section of fleabay and that word is being very well worn out these days

    Whenever I see that word being used I interpret it as "Couldn't find one on ebay today" or "It was a bag of shite back in the 70s , nobody bought it, hence why now it has low numbers surviving so let's call it RARE to be polite"
