I'd say an even split between people not knowing (the true value of) what they're selling and various levels / extents of dodgy on the other end of the spectrum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexie Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Wow, Urbain is okay. I’ve been waiting for something there I might want. Next suburb across. You may be right, Zippi. Not being able to spell or key is up there too. Latest I’ve seen is Duel 1009 turntable. Saw some Snizer headphones recently. It’s an opportunity if you want it, or just a laugh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grilles need to be unscrewed so odds are no one has physically touched the drivers if the cloth is intact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the ones I had, and the pics in the ad look like hex nuts holding the grilles which is consistent with what I remember. Maybe the wizards and harlequins had this compared to magnetic grilles in later models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THOMO Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Yamaha NS75Ts ending soon in Melbourne.I was going to bid myself but already have a pair. Really fantastic sounding speakers and easy to drive.I have done direct comparisons with NS1000s and think the NS75Ts are much better. Unfortunatey the titanium dome on one midrange is pushed in but there is a fair chance this can be pushed out again.I have managed to do this with other titanium drivers.It seems to be remarkably resilient. A recap might also be needed.Some of the caps in mine had drifted off value.I replaced them with Mundorfs whichw as well worth the cost. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Yamaha-NS-75T-Speakers/264654703325?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160811114145%26meid%3D279082e9eba0404682078582b4ab3a05%26pid%3D100667%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D8%26mehot%3Dnone%26sd%3D264654703325%26itm%3D264654703325%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2334524&_trksid=p2334524.c100667.m2042 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweaky Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 A pair of speakers [no name] at a buy it now price of $895 that look like they came from a club or bar judging by the mount, located Port Melbourne https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2-Way-Speaker-Cabinets/292720588649?hash=item442781b769:g:kHQAAOSwHy5eVi1- What's of interest is the drivers, a pair of 12" JBL 2202 woofers and a pair of JBL 2426 compression drivers with JBL 2424H 'Baby Butt' horn flares. Seems like a good buy if interested in building a new / different cabinet for them......too big for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob_m_54 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I bought the Yamaha NS-777. There were a few very minor scuffs, and a small (6mm) hole in one of the grills, where it overlays the frame. $300.00, they'll do me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misternavi Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 not that anyone is buying much audio gear https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F114153892687 Arion Tube amp at $800 seems pretty good deal. i’d buy it for the looks alone but uncertain times ahead and my audio purchases are probably done for the rest of the year.
