Very nice gear. I am very curious about those speakers you have. How well is the projector working for you? I considered one, but decided against because of expense and upkeep. Your projector must fit into your stereo very nicely without being in the way of the sound. ( Im still tring to come up with a solution for the behemoth between my loudspeakers.

Its funny how people toss aside great gear like that when " The latest and greatest" comes around. People like us are smart enough to rake it all up. The mentality is that a great piece of gear is less great when a better one is made. ( Does it not still sound the way it did before an upgrade came around?). Meanwhile we pay pennies on the dollar for the gear,( Or pounds in your case )

I found the LS2B in a pawn shop and went home to research it over the internet. I don't think I've ever driven so fast to get back to a store. I then layed it on thick... The salesperson told me that they couldnt believe the blue book value of the device and said at the time it was worth over 1000. I then asked if they knew how old the tube was ( All a load of BS). I told them I would give them 300 considering that the tube was very expensive to fix and they didnt know its age. The fell for it it, and I walked away with an extra $100 in my pocket. ( My top offer would have been $400).
