Note to Mods: I know there is a sale forum, but didn't think people would be particularly looking for this in there, although by all means move it there if you're not happy with it in here.

Fabby system, but seems I cannot actually set it up in the 5.1 config in present home, seems a bit pointless having them, and I have just plugged PC into my amp instead – less clutter.

So I might as well get some extra cashola for chrimbo and give them to a new home rather than have them in a cupboard collecting dust. They’re in perfect working order, and as most of you will know the sound quality is spot on, especially with a creative SoundBlaster sound card. Haven’t got the box it was massive, so threw it away, have the user manual, although it’s a bit tatty, but I can always download the PDF and print it for you, not that you need it, it’s just a case of plugging it into your machine.

I live in Kingston so ideally this is for people in fairly easily travelling distance, can’t really be doing with trying to find something to pack them in, and sort out posting and all that palaver. Or maybe could meet half way or something.

Cheapest I have seen them is £88.13 online excluding delivery of course.

So I was thinking around £60 ono (think that’s reasonable)

thats a bit steep for 2nd hand with no box or manual....

ChrisB

Nick - Computer related for-sale adds are fine in here

Hobo - Please do not comment on the price mentioned. The seller is entitled to ask what they want. If it's too expensive, it won't sell and it's up to them to drop the price to get a sale.

ah whatever happened to hagglin eh? so why hasnt this been moved to the for sale bit if ur so strict mr mod?

ChrisB

If you want to haggle, do it off-line.

Which bit of that isn't clear?

Hobo_Jojo

sorry god please dont strike down upon me with great vengence and furious anger....or something..

mynickers

It's got a manual, what do you need a box for, it's going to sit near your computer, the hardware functions perfectly and will last just as long as a new set, so I think thats a fair price.

As has been stated if you disagree feel free to email me with an offer..

Does it have an optical/Toslink/SPDIF input or do you need a 5.1 channel coaxial cable and/or seperate inputs for each speaker?
