Quad 33/FM2/303 & Thorens in a console !

[Operajulian]

Way beyond my spare cash at the moment - especially shipping it to Canada but what a lovely and rare thing.

I would love to own the 'cabinet', but sadly the FM3 & 33 faceplates look well used around the 'knobs', but realistically priced?????
There were were some well designed and aesthetically pleasing (to me) cabinets made in the '70's for Quad units, I owned a 'Heath' (HiFi Year Book 1974), but mistakenly parted with it and the 33/303/FM3/AM3 when I was planning to emigrate in 2010.

The 303 is under the removeable 'table top'.

Looks obscenely overpriced. What’s he thinking?

 

[Arkless Electronics]

I saw it the day it appeared.... at half price it would still be way overpriced

 

[chartz]

That’s for sure. It will never sell at that museum price. Christie’s perhaps?

I’d say half price would be fair, assuming it all works properly.

 

[sideshowbob]

For that price I'd expect the electronics to be cosmetically excellent, which they clearly aren't.

I agree Jez but I really hope they don't separate the hifi out and sell them as individual items and then take the "brown furniture" to the dump site.

I think he really wants to keep it.

'no silly offers as I’m not desperate to sell'.

The FM3 is an FM2, actually, but the price is still silly...

 

[miktec]

I meant the thread title on PFM - originally had 306 not 303
(now corrected)

I would certainly be interested in the 'cabinet' - but probably wouldn't be able to afford it

FM2 - I stand corrected - sadly the 'vented' casework didn't register - DOH!!

I meant the thread title on PFM - originally had 306 not 303
(now corrected)

Ahh!! I only saw the 'amended' title.

Also the colour, FM2 is yellowish, FM3 more red
Btw, it has Make an offer, just make one, like 700 quid or smth

 

[Barrymagrec]

Price drop to £3350.00

Still pretty heavy I would have thought.

Why not? Best thing to do with it IMHO.
