    $100 seems like a good deal for a set of Mission bookshelf speakers complete with stands and cables: https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/ele/d/mission-m71-audiophile/6617070961.html

    I'd buy those Missions and stands more than likely. I'm going to the web for comparisons and check reviews somewhere too.

    I just looked...Why are they so cheap on eBay? China cabinets?

    300.00 OMRP is why. Man, I'm tempted...but I'll go look for reviews now. I found a Stereophile review and they were VERY well reviewed! Maybe offer 80.00. or even 50. , who knows.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Heard a pair of these a LONG time ago (talking 2 or 3 years) and they sounded quite good, especially for the money. Of course, this was before I was a proper audiophile, but still, I could tell they had a pretty flat response, and were dynamic, and had that ‘Mission’ sound to them, a little bright but not too bright.

    They were supposed to be very good value for the money, if I was local and had the money I would buy ‘em.

    Most of the good old Sony lasers are bulletproof with the exception of the 9000es DVD player and a later model of SCD player. I don't know about 2K , 12- 1500.00 maybe on a good day.

    You guys are the worst! A bunch of eggers - and NO, I do not have $2K to spare LOL. I drive a Jeep now - Just Empy Every Pocket, remember?

    Those are sweet players indeed - it's funny, I have two of the aformentioned Sony 9000ES series, and (probably jinxing myself right now) have never had a problem or a hitch with either one. I actually really think they're great players. Here in LA I'm running an older Marantz, and it's very nice too (certainly better looking), but sometimes it doesn't catch all the SACD layers. Oh well.

    I'm going to start looking for one of those toob ones you just picked up Drew - that's a beaut! ... I mean, after I sell one of the other three ... four I mean. Forgot about the Minimax... sigh.

    Those are getting long in the tooth, but DANG that's a good price. One could buy both and sell one on ebay for that price and come away with a free (or almost free) beast of an amp to play with. If I was local I would definitely check it out!

    Here is a GREAT one! 300.00
    I've been wanting a newer Def Tech BP10-B or this rare model BP30's that I saw years ago while researching the PB10-B's. Not too much info on it but Trey Mr3 has a thread posting or 3 on this model. I loved the BP10b's and these are twice what they were. I can't wait to hear these in a better cleaner more open room. These were very clean BUT the sub has been around the block a couple of times for sure. The sub needs repair she said.

    3ubthbwvh459.png
    And I was first in line. A hick-up on day one yesterday, but he got it straightened out and called me this morn. I'm back and they're put away except the sub. I have to make room for it in the back room.x81gg4khcwpc.jpg
