Just grabbed one at a bargain price. £35 delivered brand new. I know this model is going obsolete now but it does a good job. The internal speaker in my 450D just isn't good enough
Having worked for a manufacturing company for 20 years, I can tell you that the outgoing stuff is often built better than the new stuff. Sure the new stuff usually has some gizmo (selling feature) that the old one didn't, but the cost down is relentless and it usually means money has been saved from somewhere.Macman wrote: I know this model is going obsolete now but it does a good job.
Yep. Rumour has it they are going to reduce the size of the cabinet...a good idea, but I'm not spending £200 on the new model when this one works perfectly.Road_Hog wrote:Having worked for a manufacturing company for 20 years, I can tell you that the outgoing stuff is often built better than the new stuff.

I'm afaid IT was an EBay deal my GF found. A one off. The guy was selling off stuff. Retail on these from the likes of Nevada is still £159.00. Maybe cheaper if you shop around and tell them you know it's obsolete. Sorry I can't get you the same dealMercunium wrote:Are these still available? Care to share the seller because that is a brilliant price - who cares about obsolescense if it works perfectly?!
