Latest Best Thrift/CL/Dumpster/Ebay Score!

[BlueStreak]

This place has become a virtual wasteland for gear at thrifts. My last score was a pair of Realistic Nova 6's for $6. Good garage system speakers, sound pretty good.

Nice score, Robbin!

I am alone today at the big government job so I took a chance and left a student in charge of x-ray. I thought you never know I may just find something in the military thrift if I do a quick check. There were 4 Mitsubishi pieces and none of them looked like the BPC stuff ....a silver integrated amp,
a tuner and power meter , all matching. They wanted $20 a piece for that. On the floor was this big, black amp that looked sort of like a Mcintosh (one can dream) and they wanted just $15. Man it is heavy as hell. I thought I might have a heart attack carrying it back. I just could not leave it at that price. I did not know they made gear this solid. I will test it tonight when I get home. Thanks! Thanks for the SPECS!

Yeah, Mitsubishi made some hellatiously good gear. Their LT-20 and LT-30 linear tracking turntables are among the best of the type.

I'd probably go back and get all of it. You could keep the tuna and the meters, flip the integrated and end up making money on the whole deal.

Your earlier post said that they wanted $20 apiece for the other stuff.

Yeah you are right....but I now that I think about it I think they have the integrated amp and the power meters sitting on the shelf for 20 bucks each and the tuner on the floor where the amp was. I was in a big rush because I had left the medical clinic without an xray techless lol.

Looks like a good score!
