Anyone ever heard of Ecco

[andrew1810]

Hello all,

In a moment of weakness I bought an Ecco AV amp off ebay (cheap):
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5719447010&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT

It was mainly because it looked nice and my Aiwa isn't great anyway so its days were numbered.

Has anyone actually heard of them, I can't find anything on the net.

Will let you all know what it is like when it arrives anyway

I thought they made shoes

 

[andrew1810]

I'm hoping its a different company, otherwise the sound may be a little unusual

 

[julian2002]

i thought ecco was either a writer or a dolphin. still it does look nice which IS all that matters.
imho it looks a bit like the now defunct pink triangle integrated.
cheers

I'll echo what Jules says - definately a dolphin

Beware of nice looking hifi from unknown companies!

At least it should sound sole-ful

 

[andrew1810]

The jokes are all coming out today aren't they!!

Lets just hope it sounds good but at that price who really cares!!

Bootiful!

 

[analoguekid]

It shoe'd sound good for £27, can't see it being any worse than a budget special, from richers, If it gives you any bovver, boot, it back onto ebay, very sneakerly, having a starter price of £27 quid

 

[andrew1810]

Certainly a good idea and to be honest my Aiwa is ok for fronts but the surround is a bit lacking.

Nice use of the shoe references, I should really think of some myself....watch this space

Umberto Ecco isnt it?

 

[michaelab]

That's Umberto Eco

As it happens I'm wearing a pair of Ecco shoes at the moment. Never heard of Ecco AV products though.

you don't have to be well "heeled "to buy it at that price.

 

[mudgey]

At least you don't have too be well "heeled" to buy it.

Haven't you loafers got anything better to post about?

Here's a better picture:

Costs R 850 in South Africa. What's that in real money?

 

[andrew1810]

That is a better picture, comes to £72 and my Aiwa is only worth about £50 so it should be better!

I presume it does Dolby Digital as it does DTS
