Lol! That bad, huh?
There is one in a package deal, with a PL 700B, for around $800, so just wondering if it's worth it.
Think about how much extra you may, [or may not], have to spend in the future to have to do the necessary upgrades to bring all the components up to scratch. Some caps will definitely need to be done.
Vintage gear always needs a good going through.
If you have really good speakers are you prepared to take the chance of not doing the work?
The 700B's are awesome, but can be so dangerous. When they go, you can kiss anything hooked up to it, goodbye...
Is it negotiable? Has any work been done?
Maybe someone here could offer you something for a comparable price and all the work already done!
Anyone?
Good luck though with whatever you decide. If you get them, you can always get help here.
