OPPO Karma

edited October 2007 in The Clubhouse
The new format got me in and I'm getting a Toshiba HD-A3. So, my OPPO OPDV971H needs to go. Good opportunity to give a little back to the forum.

Open to all members with more than 100 posts.

Only requirement: pay forward. Winner must start a karma thread as soon as he/she is announced. No limits on the item; could go from your car to a used CD.

Interested? Post the item you would give on karma.

Karma ends when I hook up the Toshiba and confirm it works to my satisfaction.

EDIT: Nothing wrong with this player; probably the best SD upconverter you can get. Includes remote, manual, original box, blah, blah, blah.

    I am in for a most generous karma.

    I will offer up a sony cdp-c75es 5 disc cd changer as karma should I win and most likely even if I do not win.

    I've got stuff that I could giveaway, so please count me in for the Oppo Karma.
    I'll decide later, but it could be a vinyl starter package that would have 15+ albums; or another DVD player that I'm not using; or maybe my original 1st generation Playstation that I've been using as a CD player (it would come with all the games I have too)
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    Nice Karma good on you.:) Not in. I allready have an oppo and asking for another would simply be a greedy selfish thing to do. :D

    REGARDS SNOW
    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D
