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?

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 Woody. I have a fully rebuilt Clearaudio Titanium V1 MC that I might consider selling. It has not been used since Peter Lederman from Soundsmith rebuilt it for me a year or two ago. The V2 of this retails at around 10k now. I'd be looking for around 4k for it. PM for more info/pics if interested. Cheers, Dave.

Hi Woody

I have an open box but unused Audio-Technica AT33EV available.
Asking for €350.00.

Haven't heard it but very well reviewed and said to punch above its weight.

Thanks,

Gerry 🎶

Sorry guys.I was auto logged out and didn't realised Apologies for delay answering. I have since purchased an Ortofon Rohmann.. Bod that looks like a fabulous cartridge but would have been well out of my price range. Gerry I might be looking for another cartridge down line for a second turntable and may drop you a pm down the line if that is OK.

Glad you got sorted Woody. Happy listening.

Of course, contact me anytime if you're interested in the AT down the line.
I may put it up for sale in the meanwhile but it will on this forum first at this favourable asking price.

Cheers,
Gerry 🎶

No worries Woody. I recall reading a review of the Rohmann many years ago and wondering how good it must sound. I was still in Shure M75ED land back then. Cheers, Dave.
