Nothing currently but it looks like I will be using some Cornwall IIIs soon!
Congrats, and you now have enough posts that you should be able to PM others.

Sure did, carried it out of the Playback store myself.
There was a Playback in a mall ~ 30 miles from where I lived and I was only 14 yo when you bought your Mark 600. Combining the distance and age, I wasn't in that store but a few times.
What speakers are you using now? -

Thanks I appreciate it. I will post some pictures in the next days.
It's good of you to offer the parts here, rather than fleabay or other places. This place used to be a great go-to place to get help from knowledgeable members. As a way to pay back the help that was offered, I still list what I have to offer on this forum first. It wasn't long ago, there were people on here looking for what you're offering.

Project One
That's a brand that isn't said very often. Have you had it long?

If everything aligns I can do a local pickup this week. Please send a PM with your contact info and I'll be in touch - the system apparently doesn't allow new accounts to message. Thanks.
What amp are you going to be using to power them?
-
Selling my Odyssey Khartago amp. This one is highly regarded and I can hear why. It has a high resolution and sounds great on everything I have hooked it to. The amp is in excellent condition with no flaws or scratches. It cost more when I bought it, but the prices have gone down some and are still $1,000 + ... my loss is your gain. $750 OBO.
Specs:
- 2 x 110 Watts RMS @ 8 Ohms
- 2 Ohm load stable
- Class A/AB
- 2 – 400,000 Hz frequency range
- 60,000µF memory
- 40 amps current delivery
- <0.04% THD (not audible)
- >500 continuous damping factor
- Input impedance 22K ohms
- DC offset <1 mV
- RCA inputs
-
400 VA Plitron transformer

Just connected a set of Heresy IV's up to the Sansui. Amazing sound. Just wow... Had no idea what I was missing
Congrats. I have been a Sansui fan for a while. I have not had the 5000x or any of the older receivers except for the 9090db. I have had the G8700 and I still have the G8000 and it's a keeper. The CA/BA and older AU7700, AU7900, etc sound great too.

I would like to see if there is any interest.
The best thing to do is post a price and a few pictures. There are very few members here anymore. Be careful of the first-time posters trying to lead you away from here using emails or PMs.

A guy walked into the local welfare office to pick up his check. He marched straight up to the counter and said,"Hi. You know...., I just HATE drawing welfare. I'd really rather have a job." The social worker behind the counter said, "Your timing is excellent. We just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants a Chauffeur and bodyguard for his beautiful daughter.
You'll drive his 2024 Mercedes-Benz CL and he will supply all of your clothes. "Because of the long hours, meals will be provided. You'll also be expected to escort the daughter on her overseas holiday trips. This is rather awkward to say, but you will also as part of your job description have to satisfy her sexual urges. The daughter is in her mid-20's and has a rather strong sex drive." The guy in wide-eyed amazement said, "You're bullshittin' me!"
The social worker said: "Yeah, well ... You started it".

Now wondering if the banana plug type connectors have any advantage in sound quality over the basic speaker wire.
No. Adding connections adds 'leaks' or potential problems/losses. If one can solder each end of the cable to the amp and the speaker would be best. But, I'm not recommending that.
Banana jacks are convenient and I use them, but they should be avoided.-

And to fill in a gap or two in this thread:
Howards has a driver now. When he posted, 'BubbleCub' claimed to have what he needed. To me, it looked like BubbleCub was a scammer, but I was locked up in the forum's slammer and couldn't do anything except watch the crime through the iron bars. Marvil was up and he asked BubbleCub for pictures. I PMed Howards and gave him a heads-up about responding to email deals. I have a few drivers here and sent one to Howards and he is to pay me back for the cost of shipping.
FF a day or two later, BubbleCub responded to 3 other Garage Sale WTB ads. He claimed to have everything that everyone needed: Quartet risers, a pair of CF3, and a K55 driver. I PM Travis with my thoughts and Travis tossed out the scammer.

Each of the Discworld books can stand on their own, but there are a lot of recurring characters that develop over time.
I finished 'Equal Rights' the other day and I've already started 'Lords and Ladies'. TP had those characters down perfectly.

In line with this book, I'm almost done reading The Naked Mind-Control Alcohol: Find Freedom, Discover Happiness and Change Your Life by Annie Grace. I don't drink alcohol but wanted to find out why this is such a powerful book.
Similar to you not drinking, I don't do drugs. I have read several books on how the brain works because I wanted to know more about why and how people become addicted; and why people behave the way that they do... and chit. I like David Sapolsky's lectures, because he is easy to follow, but I can't stand his books because of his sloped pov.

The pair of Belle are sold pending the actual transaction.

Last night, I listed Gil's items elsewhere and it has generated some movement. If you're on the fence about any of the equipment, you might make your move.

Admittedly I know nothing about the Belle’s. Are they the same internals as the La Scala just a different box design?
How would they compare in sound? I haven’t ever been able to listen to a pair.Unfortunately for you, it looks like the pair of Belle are sold pending pick up.

Those are nice looking!
All the internals of his old set are good so I think we will give building new cabinets a try. The worst that can happen is we waste a bit of wood.
It will be a little while before I get around to making them though, I still need to build a shop building..... so a while lol.
Yeah, I PMed you that ad a few days ago. Not sure if you're getting your mail.
