These are nice as I understand although it could use work on the plinth.

I saved the seller long ago because they always have such nice gear and start low!

Currently at $46.00 and 4 bids with just under 6 days (hasn't been up long then)!

These are quile lovely and I know a person with it and the 698 as well (unless he sold one or both but they are so nice)!

I think mine was $429 when I bought it new. There was one on eBay last week that ended with no bids. It started at $660.

I've had trouble with mine in the past. I found the connection where the cable connects to the bottom of the arm not the greatest.
I've traced hum to this connection point.
