Some interesting bits n pieces in there.

 

All those pallets of SKC VHS tapes.

Kelly Waterman, Axent Audio owner, is clearing out some (at least) of the items in his fabled storage area. Lots and lots of goodies available.

 

The auction will be over two days - Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 of August, with viewing on the Friday. A catalogue will be available on August 13.

 

There is a little more information on Axent's web site.

Came away with a very nice Thorens TD124 - Goodmans speakers - 4 x KT66 for $24.00 - 4 x reel to reel players including a GEC valve powered unit that worked fine until the transformer caught fire a valve tester and for good measure scored the amazing 70s JBL studio monitors (including legendary horn midrange & 15" bass) from in the showroom. All in all a crazy weekend. Kelly will be missed!

Kelly will be missed

 

What's happening with Kelly?

 

can you post a pic of those JBL's.... is it the one I saw in the showroom....? that was a beautiful speaker...

[Owen Y]

I believe that the Axent business will eventually be on the market.

 

Kelly is just moving on, to other pastures, I understand.

That's a shame, good guy and a wealth of experience.
