Electrostatic Speakers
I won't sell mine to anyone and have them go through the same loss as me. They will be used sparingly at lower volume levels. They have been replaced with Totem Element Metals.

I purchased a used pair of 2905's they lasted 6 months then one of the speakers also failed. What a waste of money.

I also had the Lounge while my main rig was being repaired it was very good. Great customer service at Lounge that you wont get from Schitt.

I just purchased a Goldnote PH 10 it sounds almost as good as my $7000 rig and is much more versatile !

Can you live with your current speaker until you die?
Lets see I started in 1975. KLH, DQ 10's, Merlins, Magnepan 3.3, Apogge Duetta, Meadowlarks, Accoustic Zen, Magepans 1.7 with bass woffer, Teckons, Spatials, My currant speakers are Quad 2905 and Totem Element Metals. Who knows about next year.  
Empire Turntable Parts
Great TT. I own two Empire 208's. One has been refurbished with a Wand Tonearm and Hana SL, its sounds as good as my big rig. I enjoy it so much I purchased the other one for parts.

Vintage equipment can be a risk but it is fun and satisfying to bring it back to life.

Thanks I will try to find them. I also have the duel belt drive that I am using now. Very quiet but a pain to get on.
