    Currently a hyperspace, SME V arm, Lyra Lydian and EAR83p going for £1800.
    It would trash my planar 3 but is it worth it?

    yeah, if the Lydian is in good condition... I'd kinda see it like this...

    £350 834p
    SME V .... £650?
    Lyra £200
    Hyper, no arm... £900

    those are just my guesstimates.

    Of course its only a good deal if you really want it :)

    well i'd want it but parting with money like that is as about as unpleasant as a downstairs mixup:crazy:
    seller reckons it's over four grands worth.

    I'd buy it were I looking for a new TT.
    That's a very good price if everything is in good condition.

    Hi Chris,

    You would be lucky to buy an SME V for £650. You are usually looking at around a £1000 or even more.

    Hiya, I'll bow to deans wisdom on smeV prices, after all he has one, probably better on the price.

    NAS turntables have gone slightly out of forum fashion, but I still enjoy mine when I spin a record (rarer for me now, I listen to more through a squeezebox)

    S'pose it depends on if you listen to records enough to justify the cost.

    Not exactly 'gifted' when it comes to using a camera is he - that pic of the EAR is spectacularly out of focus.
