Happy to post. Will fit in a small satchel @$9.20. I'll send you a PM.

Sold. Pending payment.

The WFT-3D uses the Frontier Silicon Venice 6.5 module that has a Cirrus Logic CS4344C DAC chip. It's a 24/192 DAC with quite respectable specs, and Sangean have added their own output buffer, so it's a decent setup. But as Neo suggests, a dedicated DAC fed from the optical output might be better. The CS4344C offers 105dB Dynamic Range/SNR and -90dB THD.

Thanks. Not sure what i can do about formatting. Will have a look at that on the weekend, but have added the table as an image for now. Cheers.

Marantz ST-50 Tuner. This is a bargain if you enjoy FM Radio. It is a very well spec'ed, sensitive and great sounding tuner. The 'Wide/Narrow' IF option is a nice feature. Will blend nicely with any of that early-mid 90's Marantz gear. I bought one new and lived with it for many years until a surge took out the power transformer, and a replacement was unobtainable by then. Would have considered grabbing this one, but I already have a Marantz ST-17 in my main system and an ST-64 (predecessor to the ST-50) as well amongst my collection. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/marantz-st50-AM-FM-Vintage-Tuner/184139963137?hash=item2adf98db01:g:r9UAAOSwRs1eDAsl

Billy Idol seems to have some loyal fans. Also nice to see Roy Buchanan turn up on someone else's list. And Meddle get some love amongst the PF selections.

Yes, they don't look like they would be too difficult to modify. I can't take any credit for the wood working skills on the bamboo stools. They were purchased as a flat-pack on e-bay and only had to be assembled. I never bothered filling the screw recesses. I had them oriented 90deg, so the screw heads were on the sides. When the new speakers were completed, these got stowed away for a while, then eventually went to the Salvos.

Good thinking. Angled legs provide good stability. Any holes in the steel tubing that an audiophile could use to fill them with sand?! While I was building my current main speakers, I used this pair of cheap and cheerful bamboo stools in the loungeroom with my Richter Merlins for about 6 months. It pays to think outside the box.
