    Consisting of:

    Arcam Diva A85 amp. Bought new.
    Arcam CD93 cd player. Ex- display.
    Castle Conway3 floor standing speakers in rosewood veneer. Bought new.
    Sound Organisaton Z5 equipment rack with five shelves, in silver. Bought new.
    Qued speaker cables and interconnects.

    What is special about this setup is that it has sat in an empty house all its life, played only on my brief trips home from overseas.

    As a result, the amp and speakers are not even run in. The cd player being ex-display (£600 from Sevenoaks) is in very good condition. Everything else is immaculate.

    The amp was one of the last available and was kept for 12 months in its box until I acquired the cd player. This was also kept in a box until I eventually bought the speakers, rack and cables.

    This mid end equipment has seen very little use indeed and will therefore probably last a lifetime.

    A new budget system would probably cost the same or more.

    Pictures don't do it justice but are available here:

    By collection only from the Bolton area. £700

    Hi Emiliano

    Would you consider splitting it up? It's the A85 that I'm after, primarily.

    Cheers

    I just haven't got time, I'm afraid.

    This is just part of what I have to sell due to relocation abroad.

    I'd take the CD93 depending on price?

    I could collect with cash asap.

    I've replied to your message on AV Talk, Paulios. Please check my post there.

    Yes, it's still available, but I'm very short of time, since I'll be going abroad soon.

    Second deal fell through, so it's available again, if anyone is interested.

    Neither prospective buyer saw or heard it.

    You'll need to be quick though, as I'm running out of time, and one of my kids wants it - for nothing of course.:rolleyes:

    Third time lucky, maybe.:D
