    https://www.richersounds.ie/asp/categorydetail.asp?objectid=938&mode=0&categoryid=2&sub=20&c=1

    Project Debut 3 priced at £199.95 / 239.95 Euro (Back in stock but in very small amounts)

    Hey ipodrocker.

    In stock at the moment we have the following:

    Project Essential which is priced at £149.95
    http://www.richersounds.com/product/turntables/project/essential/proj-essential-blk

    And also the Maratnz TT42 has just arrived back into stock priced also at £149.95
    https://www.richersounds.ie/asp/product.asp?ObjectID=930&Mode=0&productid=1060&Results=true&keys=marantz

    The two Projects mentioned before are now out of stock. :(

    I might tend to sway more towards the Marantz TT42 if it was me :)

    thanks kenny, can i get this in dublin or delivered? (marantz )


  • Company Representative Posts: 17,276 ✭✭✭✭Richersounds.ie: Kenny


    The Marantz TT42 is availble from the Belfast store, I can have it delviered to your home address or I can have it shipped to The Philips Shop in Dame street, Dublin and you can collect it from there.

    Unfortunatley on this product I will have to charge the £11.99 shipping fee (Even if I send it to the Philips Shop) Sorry :(

    If you would like one drop me a PM with your contact number and I'll give you a buzz :)

    iPOD,

    No problem - if it's just some cables we will pop them into the same box for you and of course there won't be any extra delivery charge.

    If the cables you are looking for are between the Marantz turntable & the Marantz Amp - then I can save yourself a few more yoyo as the TT42 already has the Phono cable included!

    (See, we are good to you ;))

    John,

    do you know the length of the cable supplied? as i will be putting the turntable away from the amp, or with a turntable better not to have a long length of cable?

    thanks

    Ip,

    no problem - we would ALWAYS recommend that within reason ALL cables are kept as short as possible.

    Kenny has checked the length of the Marantz TT42 Phono cable * it's 116 Cms (he was always a precise child :rolleyes:)

    On another tack - I have to say that I think the Marantz really sounds great!

    Thanks again - keep the questions coming if we can assist!

    Ipod - thanks for the update - yep that Marantz turntable is an excellent design (sometimes the old designs are the best!) and the sound quality is really excellent ( I have actually just bought one myself - to replace my esoteric expensive difficult to use turntable that no one else in the hous will use for fear of damaging it (especially as we are usually tipsy when the LP's come out!))

    Keep us posted and enjoy the vinyl!
