550059 2007-05-15 12:26:00 I'm not sure it looks like $600. mmmork (6822)
550060 2007-05-15 12:35:00 Picture $600 worth of cheeseburgers instead.

Now, Did that help?

550061 2007-05-15 12:42:00 Thankyou for the analysis metla. Your assumption that I'm a fat bastard is noted.

I'm Not.

I have not found a good stereo either.

"Total package was $2975 when bought new in 1998,"

Trouble is with such a good sound system, everything else sounds crap, viz mp3s.

550064 2007-05-16 01:02:00 I'm not sure it looks like $600.

When I originally bought min (sure it was over 10 years ago) I paid over $3000 for it. That was the amp, 5 disc carousel and the speakers you see in this auction. That did not include tape decks or a cabinet.

The model numbers seem similar to the items I owned from memory and from what I can see with the grainy photo they look similar.

Just cos it's a $600 buy now don't mean that you won't get it for less. Providing the seller is being honest it would be a good system.

:2cents:

550065 2007-05-16 02:28:00 My picks:

2, 1, 5... provided they all go for under $600 you'd be doing all right :thumbs:

The Bose/mission speakers are xtra good and will prob go for more than $600... just not so keen on Denon stuff, tends to be a bit unreliable- or the couple I had were. Never been sure why 'hi-fi' stores are keen on selling it.

The NAD system looks like it's old as... but they are 'quality' in a 1970's sort of style.

Don't forget some of those are likely to be a long way from your place and hard to carry in a backpack when hitching home :D

550066 2007-05-16 04:14:00 Yeah picking something up from Aucland isn't really convenient for me.

I've put my buying plans on hold for the moment anyways :p

550067 2007-05-16 08:31:00 some of those system look hot....the five fingnered freddy type of hot. and ones certainly a repo agent.

but having said that.... i had an amp for sale and not one person wanted it. now i just need some decent speakers for it :)
