......Too pricey for me.

This is part of the Nakamichi System One, however a very fine tuner/preamp stand-alone. I have two complete System Ones, but this auction makes my hand twitch over the BIN. :nono: The FM section in these is exceptional to say the least.

LOL if only I was rich instead of good lookin'. :D

Best,

Interesting,
Looks more like a high dollar piece of test equipment than a tuner.

Exactly! These are all business. You either love or hate the look.

Attached pic is my "high-power" System One, you'll see the 630 in the rack.

You think the dial is big enough? :)

Last week there was a full Nakamichi system one rack with all the components on the O.C. Craigslist for three hundred bucks. It looked to be in decent condition too. I didn't know they were worth that kind of coin!!! Damn!!!:bash: :twak: :whip:

With that giant dial, it really doesn't even look like audio geat at all. Perhaps a movie prop....

"Bosan, set your depth to 250." "eye-eye captian!"

or

"Nurse, set the charge to 250 volts, we can save this guy.... Clear!"

or how about..

"With my space laser, I can rule the world! Set max power for targeting coordinates..."

Yeah, it's probably this one being flipped on Ebay:

What a sh*tty layout. I'd want to go have a looky-look before I laid out my coin for that one. Look at the first pic and the misalignment of the timer on top....looks like they just dropped it out of a truck.

As bad as the writeup and layout is, the seller will probably get his BIN for the piece.

Best,

Paul

That looks like the same one... Sideways picture and all.
