Discovered in recycling bin (dry mixed recycling) so given it a dust off and a chance to be claimed before proper recycling if needed.... collect colinton.

Free: AKAI music centre (spares or repairs) (Colinton EH13) Gifted - Its an AKAI ac-a300wl. Good points - probably just the turntable to be honest - seems to work fine. Takes power from the main box through little black plug and this seems to be fairly standard thing for the time. Main box has a bit of a dry joint on the volume and i could only get it to give me one channel. Also one of the cassette deck doors is broken and the other mechanism seems sticky. Probably just belts if anyone can be bothered. Or if you only want the record deck also fine. Surplus from work. Collect colinton. Thanks for reading!

Free: Pioneer Music Centre from 1990s (Colinton EH13) Gifted - Its a Pioneer XD-z62m stereo multi cd cassette deck amp plus matching F-Z92L tuner plus a PL-Z82 turntable. Good points- 6cd autochanger works well, as does one of tape decks and tuner (as far as i know, didn't put aerials in). Has matching speakers and two aerials. Also comes with some 90s media eg cutting crew lp. No boxes or sleevesfor these. It's been in a cupboard for at least 15 years., though. Known bad points - the belt has perished on the turntable, and probably on one of the tapes. Given age, would be worth replacing belts. Also no remote control and I've made a temporary repair to the ribbon cable connector between tuner and main box. Solid unit, probably mid to high end in its day for a combined unit. Anyway, works enough to be fully functioning with a bit of tlc. I've rescued it from work and we don't need it.... maybe you do, if you've read this far! Collect Colinton.
