Greetings!

I am the second owner of this player, about 5 years old. Outstanding sounding British electronics. Perfect condition, original box, packing, manual, remote, etc. This top loading player is black colored. Music Direct is closing this player out at $699. This player sold for around $999 new. I will post pictures if needed. Price is $325 plus shipping.

For more information, look Here!
Carl

    Thanks Enders!

    I can't believe this isn't sold. I always price my gear on the Polk Forum to sell quickly. Most of the long time members know that my reputation to stand behind a piece of equipment that I sell, packing, shipping, etc. is stellar. These things are selling on ebay for over $500. There are two on the 'Gon for $550 - $575. Don't make me take it over there!! The Kraken is lurking!!

    Carl, I may want this. Does this one look just like the one in the Stereophile review only black? (reason I ask is I see a smaller one at Music Direct).

    It is the bigger one in all Black. I will unbox and take some pictures.

    I'm interested in this also. Put me in line please. I was just hoping this thing would still be available this weekend. Looks like I should have replied sooner.

    Greetings Eric!

    This is the standard size unit (17" W X10" deep), red digital display. I take PayPal, the gift option will work since I do not sell a lot.

    Here are some pics:

    Damn! A steal of a deal. I bought one a few months ago (Grad gift) for $500 and it was worth every penny. Great sounding player, nice and smooth. Enjoy! :)

    Thanks Eric!

    Enjoy the Rega! I miss it! It came down to a silver/black preference. Make sure to check the styrofaom end blocks inside the Rega package. The remote, power cords and RCAs are packed in a slot on the outside of the end blocks. Good luck!

    Regards,
    Carl
