Job lot - only really wanted the Goldring Headshell - £23 (couple of the stylii look ok but I'll need a closer look before putting them on any vinyl)

This definitely is a bargain. Heybrook TT2 with original Mission 774 arm for £325.

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
£550? I swear I've seen similar amps for around £100.

I had one of the "Yarland" EL84 amps when they first started appearing around 2005 & it was a cracking little amp, think I paid £129 delivered... Fast forward 6 years I bought one that looked very similar but was branded "Aria" & it was complete tripe. I think they use the same chassis with completely different innards depending on the "manufacturer."
From all of the different cheap Chinese valve amps I've sampled I'd say any made by Yarland or Yaqin vary from good to very good, any made by Music Angel, Music Angle, Aria, Sheng Xiang & Bewitch are crap.
Oh and that one in the link is definitely £475 overpriced.
