  1. Hey Len - just to confirm you have G08 and G08.2 (standard pic1 and slot loading pic3) shown - the unit is the top picture ie drawer loading type?
  2. yer reminiscent of the transport parts in their top of range 851 with the LPS etc... but I'm def no expert! (unlike George).
  3. Ah my student days - partnered with a pair of MS10i and a Pioneer upside down platter CD... good times thumping out Born Slippy/Underworld! GLWS. "lager lager lager...."
  4. Looks great value to me! - and I'm sure Dr Rod would help if needed or a plastic plant on the top http://www.legendspeakers.com.au/Backup-old-site/reviews/kantu4.pdf
  5. The Doornail is now sold - potentially to be a fine organ donor. Thanks.
  6. yer it's a fair Q MCL - but yep for several years until it went into standby. I still think they sound great though and I did even prefer the AVR300 to their A38. I think I've had some bad luck with the seller/Arcam combination though in the past but there is always hope for the future.
  7. Further Information: Clearing out the old stuff: Bought this from a seller here for ~400. It arrived from Sydney dead, went to Carlton Audio and was proclaimed dead (for a further $100) so here you have it, a dead bargain at $5. Doesn't power up not even into standby mode. Apparently the 350 were good in their day. I have a AVR300 that does power up just into standby that I will keep for parts to (hopefully) fix the dud channel on another, semi-functional AVR300. I will accept a DAC as trade, Decaf Almond Cappuccino.
  8. Further Information: Even more clearing out. Bought this from the nice guys at Stereosonic when they just opened on Brunswick Street, Fitzroy - think I paid something like ~$200 in mid 2000s. Seems fine has a little ding on the corner. Comes with grill too. Compatible with lots of systems. Pickup only North Carlton. https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/kef/cresta-20c.shtml
  9. Further Information: More Clearing out. Had in storage for years. Seems to work fine. You can probably hook it up to my system to test if you want to. Pickup only North Carlton.
  10. Further Information: Clearing out all the front room Had this in storage for years - was a good picture in its time - it seems to work ok but when I checked it is quite slow to read CDs hence the price. You can try it out if you want to hook it up to my main system. Sorry no shipping so pick up North Carlton.
  11. No dramas... I am always confused (and still am!) with Linn LP12 ... so many upgrades and bits and bobs, different metals etcc that make price go up and up and the thing looks the same but performance goes up and up and up and up. The top level is $50K! .... I have met the guy at Carlton in the past - yep he's factitious in a good way! upside down phono stages and all that - good luck!
  12. Nice deck I'm no Linn expert and someone please correct me if I'm wrong isn't the base Linn Sondek the Majik? so is this effectively an akurate spec under the platter or is it the 'sondek' deck prior to Majik which is significantly tweaked... just confused with Linn. glws.
  13. If your GF is under par - (sounds off) - there's bit of modding on these by the looks of thing ..... could be the start of a soldering iron love affair. http://www.wiredstate.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=19390&p=300988&hilit=cambridge+audio+640P
  14. it looks good value to me - good buying that man!. The power went for this price alone last year here.
  15. I lent mine to a friend .... never got it back! great chair - I still got the Mirra 1 got at same time. One of the few chairs you can sit in to 'nurse' a bad back
  16. have you got a better picture showing the qed qunex label on the cable please?
  17. This one must be extra English - 'init' ....
  18. 'Chord Woodo' - sits on top of the Hugo and helps with its vibranium. Or maybe it's the base of another headphone stand.. with the black stand at the back - like this: I think the former... I heard about the Woodo before - has a cult following in the dark art of the uber-normals.
