A few things things that have been in the attic a while and I need to move on due to an imminent house move:-
A pair of Meridian M2's and A&R C200 pre amp. Speaker condition ok for their age. The power indicator bulb on one speaker has gone and one of the tweeters was replaced by the Audio Clinic in Monkstown. I bought these many years ago from Cloneys and used them as my main system until about 15 years ago. The preamp has cartridge matching dip switches for both MM and MC cartridges. I've had the system running for a week or so and no annoying buzzes or burps from it. €200 Meridians sold
A&R A60 amp. Nice little amp, rated at 40W a side. Black casing showing its age a bit, but easy to repaint. €50 - Sold
Meridian A500 speakers. No grills. Bought from Cloney's a few years ago. One of the binding posts has been replaced and doesn't match the others, otherwise in good condition. €50 - Sold
A System Audio SA520AV centre speaker. Bought from Cloney's for a home cinema set up that never happened. €50 Sold
A pair of Elac AM150 active monitors. One of the power indicators is temperamental, but otherwise in good condition. Untested, but will hook up and leave running for a few days if any interest. They were bought as rear pair for a home cinema set up that nearly happened. €150 - Sold
A pair of JPW Mini Monitors in good condition. Free to any home! Sold
I think that I'm maybe underpricing some of these, but it's either a sale or a skip.
I wasn't able to post photos, but can whats app photos if any interest.

Re: A Few items from the Attic
If they are still available, I'd take the meridian A500 .....
Do or do not, there is no try
Re: A Few items from the Attic
Hi Fran, sure. Your name is on them. Do you want a few photos first?
Re: A Few items from the Attic
My first ever floorstanders, I have fond memories of those A500s.
Within the next few weeks I will probably be trying to put together a variety of speakers and some form of amplification for a "project". I don't want to take them from others more worthy, but if you have some bits left over definitely don't put them in a skip!

Re: A Few items from the Attic
A60 was my first intro amp. into this hobby...... Basic but good....
@Snoops.... If you collect the A60, I have my old A60 you can have for spares.
( Think it may have only 1 channel working, IIRC....)
Let me know if it's of any use to you.
