    Enough of this gay banter.

    I'm quite tempted by this Akai amp, possibly put together an entire Akai vintage system. Looks to be near mint:

    TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > Troels Gravesen Faital 3WC-15.

    More crazy bidding. A Goldring Lenco G88 that needs (probably minor) attention, with seven days still to go and it's already up to £360!!

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1914294881...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    I was considering a bid myself, but not at silly money.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
