    Grundig Lautsprecher Box 80 Speakers For Sale - Anyone Heard Them?

    There are a pair of these on Ebay right now that look like they have been very nicely restored from a reputable seller. I know these are really rare. Anyone heard these in person? Thoughts on a good amplifier match?

Bad News: The tonearm makes a creaking noise...

    Purchasing transistors and power caps on ebay, should I?

    I'm sure that I will get some rather opinionated responses to this post. What are the chances that large filter caps listed on Ebay are any good? Will they be the actual brand that are advertised? If a component tester specs them out okay, would they still be worthwhile to use? There are...

    Do your R/R mail order decks arrive in good shape or not?

    I've bought 8 R/R decks at eBay over the last 2 months. 3 of the 8 R/R decks had to be returned from shipping damage due to poor packing and 1 Revox B-77 was not described correctly and did not work. That is a 50% failure rate on mail order purchases due to shipping problems or...

    Panasonic Se-2819 and Technics Sl-220

    I found a Panasonic Se-2819 on eBay for 20 bucks and I tried looking for information about the model but nothing comes up. The model seems to have a preamp built in and as a beginner to vinyl on a low budget I'm interested to see if it's even a slightly ok turntable. There is also a Technics...

    EBAY FOREIGN SHIPPING ADVICE NEEDED

    I need advice from experienced ebay sellers and shippers to OVERSEAS. I haven’t used Ebay in a while. Last time 3 years ago, a MC phono cartridge. Ebay took control of the shipping, sent it 2000 miles East, then 3000 miles back West, then 7,300 more miles to Hong Kong. 5000 needless miles. I’m...
