RE: DDAR Speakers

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Brian,

Sorry if this is too late to be useful - I've been "away" for a
while
;-)

Two nice thing about speakers:

- 1: they have very obvious failure modes - either they work, or they're
knackered and you can tell immediately.=20
- 2: the rate of technology change in the market is relatively slow.

As such, they're ideally suited for buying second-hand. I wouldn't
recommend eBay, since prices seem to be very high, but today's Loot has
a pair of Rogers LS2as for =A365...

Alternatively, your local paper may have something in the classifieds.
