I think the short answer is, He's not a Radio Buff - or else he has too many or needs the money. *My big question is, Is the price tag (which somebody will probably pay) for actual performance or just for cachet? *It's real pretty, and it's a SONY, but is it as good as other $400 radios? Bruce Performance wise, I would buy the used R-75 that Universal is selling for 419.00. Jim- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I won't argue there - my R-75 is a peach! Bruce |
