Yeah they are, they also get really mucky if the power transformer overheats & the gunky stuff inside oozes out everywhere

The place where I used to work sold modern & vintage stuff, a lot of our hifi heritage goes to Japan now, people over there pay silly money for it.

I used to have an old Fidelity separates system from the 70's. Would love to get my hands on another one!

I got all my stereo bits for nothing from http://www.freecycle.org/group/
Set of 4 Jamo 110watt RMS speaker cabs, Teak tape, and a Rotel amp!
Don't need a CD player because I use the comp for playing CD's these days.
