    Items arrived exactly as pictured and described. Great price for vintage NOS items that are scarce. Well packed in original boxes for protection during transit. Shipping costs were nominal considering the items were shipped from out of the country. Highly recommended seller. Thank you.

    The packaging was well protected and wrapped, the shipping was very reasonable and the item was exactly what was advertised. Overall a good Value, I was not happy with the time it took to ship as it shipped from less than 400 miles to me but after opening the reels everything was GOOD.

    I would buy again from this seller. The item was exactly as described, well packaged, and fast shipping. I am very impressed with the quality of the items; OEM Technics 10" tape recorder reels. The shipping cost seemed a little high based on rates here in the States, but as this came from Canada the rate may be fair. I'll look forward to Canada joining us.

    FAST Shipping. The reels look great and function perfectly. As described or better. Well packaged and got halfway around the world in no time. Cant speak to the value of these as I think the market is taking advantage of the whole “vintage audio” thing, but it is what it is. I would definitely buy from this seller again if in the market. A+++++. 5 Stars

    thegreatcanadiannorthernstar is definitely a 5 Star seller. Seller arranged the best shipping I've ever experienced on E-Bay. Item was ordered on a Wednesday at 5pm and was received the next day Thursday at 8:15pm. Well packaged, item received in excellent condition with no damage. The item, an aluminum tape take-up reel, is well built, excellent quality and performs flawlessly. The item was better than I expected. I'm very pleased with this purchase. Would buy from this seller again.

Stellar looking, Competitive sounding, and high power handling. Nice bullet
Advertised as an, open show tweeter, the units live up to a very striking appearance. More so than many a bullet tweeter out there. I use four of these, as I wanted two for each side wired in series for an 8 ohm load, as I am using them in a home audio application. The tweeters are very bright and do the job quite well. They have no problem keeping up with my Klipsch reference horns. I like running a lot of subwoofers and as a result, wanted to increase my high end a bit more. Very nice sounding tweeter. These are titanium and do not start rolling off until 18000 hz, so no problem in getting to the top of the high end scale. One of the best looking, and quite competitive in sounding good also. Would recommend. They are 200 watt rms. You can get higher power with bigger magnets but with 106 db sensitivity, there is not much point.

Marathon MA 5050 Amplifier
Product is fine as long as you never need service. Marathon keeps their phone number secret and does not want your telephone call. If you contact via email, they also don't give out their email, the only way you will get it, is if they reply to your message via their web site. They pick and choose who to reply to, depending on what you want. Requests for parts will be ignored. They will fix your unit, if you blindly send it too them, and incur two way shipping costs. The cost is a big surprise as they will not even give you a ballpark cost till you go to the expense of shipping your product back to them. Again don't count on these guys to keep you up and running if you have a problem. They are very inconsiderate, and treat customers like vermin.

The Crest Amplifier tested very poorly.
Apparently the unit is limited by it's own power cord, the toroid is not properly isolated, causing other problems. Based on the test bench review I found, this amplifier is a dog for value based on the Crest price.
