I need interconnects... trade bait
« on: June 23, 2010, 01:09:36 AM »
I would love to get a couple pairs of good interconnects in trade for a Marantz 1200B in need of repair. Physically the amp is in great shape. I even have the original super rare wood case. The preamp works, but the relay is bad and has been removed (I have the original). The wood case needs refinished due to age, and spending some time in an attic, but it's not scratched up or anything. One stipulation to the trade... no epay. Keep it in the burgh circuit. This thing has some sentimental value. I have access to the original manual and (Ithink) the box as well. I'll get some pics up if there's interest. Consider this one to need a full overhaul. It's an oldie!!
I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.

Sorry guy. I have exactly the amount of interconnects that I require for the amount of connections that I have to make. :(

I have a custom made pair with pure silver wire. 1 meter long. High quality RCA's
I paid $75.00 for these last year. They sound real good...

 I'd like 2 pairs of cables. I'm privy to the value of the equipment as is. I'm really looking for about $150 worth of interconnects for trade. I hope that's fair considering this beast should collect $200 easy and much much more fixed.

That's probaly a fair trade if the 1200 needs some work.

I'm not ready to let go for 75 bones. The 1200 will yeild much more in the condition it's in.

I understand, I am only willing to go so far for units that don't work.

Do you need 1m or would 1/2m lengths work?
When I die I hope my wife doesn't sell my stuff for what I told her I paid for it.

Mike, I understand. I'm only being so stubborn because I had this thing sold for $175 locally, but I backed out because at the time I decided I would try to fix it. dmkovach, I need 1m.
