Today at my local Goodwill I came upon a Nakamechi CR-1 for $9.99. Haven't tried it out yet but looks to be in good shape. Were it anything but a cassette deck I doubt I'd have a chance in my area - I never see silver in the GW mines in my parts!
Let us know how it runs......and maybe post a pic or Two....please.........

Surprising Speakers
I picked up a real nice pair of Acoustic Research S-20 speaker for $10.00 at the GW today.
I unhooked a set of JBL's from my Sansui 980DB and I was shocked at the BIG, articulate, sound that came out of these!!!! When I was hooking them up a commercial was playing and some dramatic music came up, at first I thought something was wrong, then I realized that was some big bass booming.
Now George Strait is giving them a workout, and Pink Floyd is on deck!
Score!

Stopped by the DAV last week. Noticed something that looked like one of those 400+ CD changers. Turned out to be a Yamaha M-80 in very good condition (& 51 lbs). Purchased it and took it to my car. Went back in to check out the albums, 3 mint Pat Methany's, made one more pass to the AV dept. Sitting next to the vcrs, the matching C-80 preamp.
Total cost less then dinner out.
the m-80 meter cover is mint, it's my camera.

ARgggggggggHHHH !!
I'm not even going to comment on the Linn Sondek ... or I will start weeping and short out my laptop keyboard.
Missed out on a Yamaha R-2000 for sub-$50 today (a craigslist posting) but I picked up a Rotel RB-930AX power amplifier at my local thrift shop for $10. Note on it said "a completely useless amplifier as it only has 1 input - but seems to work well".
30 wpc @8-ohm 20 to 20,000Hz, both channels driven at 0.03%THD, or 90wpc in mono / bridged mode. High current amp (20a) with damping factor of 180 and S/N ratio of 116. Specs sound pretty good.
I think it was made starting 1993.
Pretty good condition - a couple nicks on the front face plate. No sgn of a pre-amp, but then this unit may have been used separatly in a HT setup.
Any ideas on what pre-amp models would typically match up with this?
