Jamsvx back in Oz (for a very short time!)

Hi all

Well, looks like we are here in the UK for a few more years (actually worked out for the best that we sold the SVX as it would have otherwise have been sitting for nearly 2 years!) and no garage here in London (they park Aston Martins on the street!)

We are coming back for 2 weeks to sort out some stuff and put other items into storage so not sure what the thoughts are on perhaps a quick meet up - there seem to be a few new Sydney owners that I have not yet met so if they are around, would be great to say hello, put some names to faces and get a 'fix' of SVXitis!

Will be back between 20 May and 1 June so drop me a line or put any comments on up here.

Also, anyone looking for a very very decent home stereo system (I will have to sell it as cannot bring it with me! NAD 327 amp, NAD 523 5 disc CD player and Richter Dragon speakers - a very serious and powerful bit of kit!)

Looking forward to meeting up if we can

Best wishes

James

Hi

I thought that $1500 for the lot was a bargain - I don't have the time to put it on ebay so better that it goes to somewhere that at least will get some use of it (the amp alone was over a grand!!)

That includes:
NAD 327 amp (one of the best amps they ever made - an absolute powerhouse)
NAD 523 CD player (5 disc carousel) - the NAD equipment is gorgeous - minimalist grey - looks like what you would find in a nuclear power station
Richter Dragon main speakers
QED interconnects (between the amp and the CD player - cost me over $300 for two leads but makes a great difference to the sound quality)
The speaker wire (from the amp to the speakers) was just over $100 per metre

The speakers also have the 'spikes' that elevate them off the carpet (again, actually makes an improvement to the sound quality)

Am in bits about having to sell it but not practical to ship to London - my loss is your gain!

If you know of anyone interested, please let me know

Wow - everyone is coming over this way!

It all happened very suddenly so sorry for the short notice

Once we have nutted out the 'to do' things, then I will let everyone one the free time and hopefully, can have a meet up

Looking foward to seeing you again (and meeting new faces)

Best wishes

James
