Not sure about that... I listed my Yamaha T2 for Eur250 just two weeks ago and only one UK bidder showed up and asked if it had been recapped and realigned and if I had the invoice for that....!Ebay would help you with that...
Hi all,
just wanted to add that in japan the T-1200 retails for 360,000 yen which is 4200 CAD. I see a canadian shop showing it at 8000 on line. I wonder if one could buy a North american unit in Japan. .
The spec sheet looks a like my Technics ST-G7. Also, for that price it should have included a RF spectrum analyzer similar to the Sequerra. You need eye candy to help justify the price.
This is our problem. I have an MR-88 as well and I feel like it's a bit of overkill, with the lousy programming and mp3 quality throughout. The Accuphase looks and probably sounds awesome, but the FM content is dwindling by the year. Perhaps we will see an FM comeback.Even at half that price I can't see giving up my MR-88 with all the different bands it offers. I'm sure it sounds nice and I'm a fan of FM, but outside of the 88-92 band, it's not really worth $9,500 to listen to mp3s over the air.
And why not? No one was predicting a vinyl comeback a couple of decades ago, were they? (IDK)This is our problem.

We have a couple in Indie stations popping up here in Boston. So yes, there is hope, as long as the gov. allows the bandwidth.And why not? No one was predicting a vinyl comeback a couple of decades ago, were they? (IDK)
What's to stop FM from competing with streaming services? Okay, they won't offer interactive functions I guess but what about the economics? How expensive can it be to run a transmitter? A couple of employees too? We all know about amateur transmitters now in vogue. One thing that killed FM was the endless commercials. I'm not seeing why that's required, unless colossal profits are the only thing that matters. Seems like it could be done. Are college stations still popular at all?
