Guest JohnA Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 Up for sale are the following items 1: Elektra Reference power amplifier, bought it from audiotrends around 1 year ago 2: Elektra pre amp bought from spearmint 1 week ago :ohmy: looking at a completely different direction, later down the track my theatre will also be up for sale Asking $6k for both or $3k each I am waiting on the new remote and face plate for the elektra pre amp which i will pass on to the purchaser when i get them. The reason for the new face plate is because the lettering isn't exactly the same as the ones on the amplifiers. I am not willing to ship these items so prefer pick up
norpus Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 omg John, what have you done Sacrilege? Boys I think we need an intervention.... our friend John has gone mad Some other cult appears to have got hold of him ....by the....
Guest JohnA Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 hahahahahahaha, i have become crazy John equipment on hold at the moment for someone to come and audition them
Guest JohnA Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 reference amp tentively sold depending on purchases funds pre amp still for sale
Waylander Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 hahahahahahaha, i have become crazy John Now I understand! JohnA has become Crazy John! No wonder you are getting new stuff - your budget must be phenominal Well in true Australian tradition I am sure someone will take advantage of your mental illness. We do like to take people's possessions off their hands when they become 'crazy'! In all seriousness, I would love the electra preamp if I had the funds right now. Unfortunately, the CFO has her sights set on building a new house rather than buying a cheaper older house. The good is that I might be able to have some input in building a listening room. The bad and the ugly are the associated mortgage that goes with this idea. Good luck with the sale JohnA - bound to be someone happy with that electra pre-amp. Any hints on your upgrade path?
Guest JohnA Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Don't worry mate, it also cost me a new house ot have my HT room If you are going to build, definately add a music room, you won't regret it. As for upgrade paths, undecided as yet, but its going to have to be damn good and unfortunately propably alot more expensive

50mxe20 Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 What is he saying? He's sending a text message on a mobile! Essentially asking what he is going to replace the Elektra's with (I think).
