So, what do you all think? A G-22000? A G 9000? A 9090DB?

I am so tempted to go have a look but I'm afraid what I'll find. :tears:

Shame it doesn't show what the base is. Nice table. Go and have a look what is there to lose. Are they using the red spiral piece as an antenna.

That must be one "low to the floor" coffee table...

My lower shins and ankles hurt just thinking about it.

I don't know about around there but here I can go to habitat restore and pick up similar slabs for about 10% of their listed price.

I don't need a coffee table, but I have this perverse, morbid curiosity to see how they made a nice receiver into a base, and what model they sacrificed.

They advertise them around here for $79. Take off the labor for creating the front edge and they're cheaper.

Too satisfy your curiousity, the seller says it is a QRX-9001, with a cut cord, some scratches on the wood case. I told him that I would like to purchase the receiver, and he quoted 150.00. So, either a 150.00 door stop, or maybe a receiver needing another cord to get it at least up and running. Waiting to hear back on when I can make the trip over to Vashon.

Wow. Cool, I hope. I wish I could pick it up. I just hope the face hasn't been trashed by errant toes. Good luck, man! Keep us posted! :thmbsp:

I think I'd leave the 'base' and use an old Pioneer SX-1250 (non-working) I have lying around as the base. It would make the table a little higher, maybe...

Will do. Supposed to catch the ferry over to the island and hook up around 1pm. Still awaiting a couple of answers about the actual condition as well. Hopefully the receiver hasnt shrunk a couple of inches from all the weight.
