nice pair of cornwalls for 700 on ebay wont be there long

Gilbert ,there is a marantz 500 amp on the bottom shelf of your picture. If you could find out if it works, and how much he wants, the next time you go there; I would be grateful.

The search is half the fun

I am curently using the 510 it is alright TT for the money but a friend of mine bought a Thorens 160 and put a Ortofon OM-30 super 2 on it , we hooked both of them up to his mc32 and mc2100 and the Thorens sounded much cleaner.For my money I would buy a used thorens 125 with a sme arm on it cost 500.00 and put a Om-30 cost 158.00 on it. I would use the rest of the money and send the mc 26 out and have it brought up to spec.Just my 2 cents Good luck

cornwalls on stereophile in chicago for 750

bob I have AL crossovers could you turn them into AA's or would I be beter off keeping them and just buying a set of new AA' s .

sorry about that I forgot to add subject and it just used my last one oops. Thanks nosvalves I will contact him tomorrow.

I have a marantz tuner 150 that needs repair. I found www.sound-smith.com/ and I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with them.

well Budman thanks for leting us know about the cornwalls I put the final bid in today of 577.00 and picked them up already.I bought them for a friend I work with, and he is as happy as kid in a candy store.The cornwalls are nice they are 79's birch with a walnut stain. I was able to hear them win I got there and everything worked just great. I already droped them off to my friend so I was not able to take pictures but he said he would take some for me.I well get them on soon. Again Thanks

I live 1hr from the speakers and missed them buy 5min and then again tonight because I had to work so to say the least a was a little mad.But they are just speakers easy come easy go.I do think what gil did was wrong but his heart was in the right place and that is all that counts.

------------------ kittybuddy : Thanx for NOT bidding on them. How much were ya planning on bidding up to ? I swear I put a snipe on them at $1765.oo !!!!!! ( insane, but I wanted them that bad!! ) My jaw dropped when NO-ONE-ELSE bid past $1202 !!!! -------------------------------------------- I would of gone as high as 1500 so It is a good thing I did not bid becuase all that would of happened is you would of payed more and I still would not have mc 30s. now comes the hard part waiting for them to get there so you can hear them. ENJOY

I am also curious of what you think.I own a pair altec valencia's and a pair of la scala's and still can not make my mind up which one's I like better, luckly I dont have to.

I wanted to bid on them also but bigmama was looking over my shoulder, never bid on somthing that expensive with the wife in the same room. Seriously when I saw those on ebay before I went to work I new someone was going to get a good deal, the time they ended had a lot to do with the price, most people are still at work or trying to get home.Congrats great looking pair.

The last thing I did before going out to dinner is check for Klipsch speakers on ebay 10 min too soon, I only live 30 min from chicago. One door closes another one opens. Congrats let us know how they sound.
