The rule of diminishing returns seems to apply especially to audio gear
Likewise a lot of used audio gear seems to drop off in price quite rapidly. I'm not only talking about items like DACs and streamers where new applications of technology render older models obsolete, it applies to many...
Our trip to the far north (in Cape Town terms) to Christian and Dominique's home in Plattekloof was very successful
Christian's main business is supplying music systems to commercial premises like restaurants, outdoor events where plenty of distortion-free and clear sound is required
The amps...
Its nominally 100 volts with the US (flat pin) plugs.
Every bit of (new) equipment I looked at could accept 100 to 240 volts. One dealer explained that Australia is a large market and auto-switching power supplies are the norm
We visited this store in Akihibara, called 'Store #1'. It's quite different from their on-line store and the store prices are considerably higher. As usual with shops in Tokyo, there is an overwhelming amount of merchandise.

Seems you need a little provenance to enhance the value of the object you have
The build quality appears to be very good. It will have a switched-mode power supply, which might get frowned on by some, but you got good bang for buck there.
There are many many inexpensive integrated amps on Temu and AliExpress. The specs are usually wildly optimistic but there are fairly...
That is the make I have got. One of my inspection chambers has the pipe 1.2m below the surface, so you need to bend the rod quite sharply to get the tool into the pipe. The spring steel is really good and it comes back to shape the moment you pull it out
