thanks to member Nickfish for the back panel screws he sent me to complete my 8614 number 2.

really love these boxes and it's nice to have a number 2 for a back up box

here's a pic of the 2 brothers in arms, please try to ignore the battleship grey door in the background lol

I have to agree with LL though, pound for pound i have not yet heard a better all round sound from an 80's box. I have some that sound nicer generally but they are from the 70's or cost a hell of a lot more and none have such a convincing bass. Poor man's M90 i think! For a small cheap box they are brilliant.

Just received my first Sharp GF9595 and am pretty pleased with it. Fully working and tidy for £65 aint bad. Should get my GF9000 soon; the seller is taking his time getting good packing materials.... I won't be rushing him!
