That the problem today, everything driven by greed. We are much to blame unfortunately.

I agree my friend...i would love a nacamatchi dragon to go with my technics....whats the chance of gettin one for an affordable price...(no pun intended)

 

my last m90 cost me £500 i could of had double that of stereo mad....and he may of paid that and been happy but all i asked was what i paid......the gf1000 i could of had double again but i chose not to.....it swings in roundabouts because i shall always be greatful to lee as i now have the holiest of grail amps in my posession....admittedly i thought it would have sounded better...but im still VERY impressed with it......god i wish i could remember all the gear i have had in my time lol

I  knew, you`d help me out lad, thanks. I`m in bed now, typing on my tablet pc, it`s useless. The pc, not bed.

Cheerz Lit.....least this one turned up complete, the thing that impressed me most about the m90 is that it's so easy to work on and the clarity.....but it never had deep enough bass for me....but i would like another....maybe one day

Yep. That hughes, sure knows how to pack a box. Shame, he didn`t pack the tosh sx1000.

Dragons are nice, do have couple for sale but 120v. If you want one just as good as the dragon, do have a CR7a also for sale, but has auto calibration for recording, easier to use, but runs on 120v. Do also have a Yamaha k-1020 has worldwide PSU, so can run on 220v with wired remote for sale, just overhaul it. Has new pinch rollers, capstan belt and idler tire, plus transport rebuilted. The Yamaha is much cheaper, just not as known, but still a great deck and well builted. Was one of Yamaha best effort. Also have the original box.

They can be converted, but will be over the 1k mark, as have to pay around $650-$750 for decent condition ones myseft at cost and then rebuilt the transport, bulbs and capacitors on DD board, plus the cost of the transformer. But is worth it in the end, if it what you are looking for.
