Hello I might place a bid for the Novatron that's currently on ebay. But before I do that, I've got some questions for somebody who knows the Novatron a bit better... What are the advantages / disadvantages of a Novatron over a M400? Is it more stable? better sounding?? Thanks; Dieter Vanmarcke President of the Belgian Tron Owners Committee ;-)

It would be cheaper to buy a brand new M4000 from Streetly. Bernie --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "Dieter" <dieter_vanmarcke@...> wrote:

Dieter: You can make an offer lower than the 9000USD asking price. It does look to be in very good shape. Dan --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "Dieter" <dieter_vanmarcke@...> wrote:
