Forum rules
Note that Tir Na HiFi does not take any responsibility for transactions arranged or carried out here. It is up to the seller and buyer to check each other out! Please be sensible folks, and if there is something you think is wrong, let a mod know, OK?

To make it as clear as we can, here are some simple guidelines:

a) like any forum, the success of tirnahifi is entirely dependent on discussion. All members are encouraged to participate in discussion of music, hifi, etc.
b) tirnahifi is not designed to be, nor intended to be, a marketplace. Any member who uses the site merely for selling will be looked on suspiciously.
c) those members who choose to sell on the site should be aware that the mods do keep an eye on the stuff for sale, plus the demeanour of the seller. Sometimes we may lock/delete/ban a sales thread on this basis.
d) honesty is paramount in all selling transactions. Commercial sellers who label themselves as such are accepted at the discretion of the moderating team.
e) All ads have to include information about age, price, provenance, etc.
f) THE MODERATING TEAM RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE ANY ADS AT THEIR DISCRETION.
g) Commercial sellers should approach any of the moderation team in advance of posting. First time commercial posts without moderator contact will be removed.

Hi all;

Have unique Meridian HI-FI components for sale, take a look at first one, your comments and offers much appreciated. Price around: 500 euros including delivery and 3 month warranty.

Meridian 596
The 596 is a powerful statement by Meridian – demonstrating the quality that
can be attained from DVD-Video in an outstanding product which also offers the
very best playback of CD, VCD, CVCD and MP3.
596 uses a precision DVD-ROM drive to read information from the discs using a
technology developed for the Meridian 800 Series. This drive’s precise pickup
system is optimised for CD, CDR and DVD.
Inside 596 the construction is modular, and part of the back panel can be
exchanged so that functions like audio or video output or disc playback can be
upgraded in the future.
The main playback electronics are modular, built using five PCBs which house
the control, audio and video decoding and output sections. Advanced digital and
analogue electronic construction techniques are combined to provide the
highest performance for sound and picture. 596 is built using 6-layer PCBs, 9
separate power supplies, the latest surface-mount technology and components
which have been carefully selected to optimise sound and picture quality
