Almost as new, two tiny scratches on the top but otherwise excellent. This is the MK6/2 version with Stanleys additional class A output stage mod (cost me an extra £15 IIRC), and the virtual dc power supply. Cost me about £120 all in, yours for £80 delivered. I still have the original box it arrived in, as well as the coax cable. Cheap to try out, and then you'll be able to make your own mind up as to whether it's all hype or not. Me, I reckon it's worth trying especially if you have a cheaper CD player as I think it can make an improvement, but more than that I can't say having had no experience of the more expensive end of the market!
