Thanks to anyone that sent me a PM regarding my empeg. Yes I do own a perfectly functional Empeg (MK2a) and since it has been outside the car for a while (I'm using it right now connected to my stereo as an MP3 jukebox) it's in perfect conditions with minimal wear and tear.
The problem is: I saw on another guy's ebay auction that the unit, plus tuner, is on sale for 150 UK pounds and, to be honest with you, stating on how much I paid for it, I prefer to use it until it breaks down (probably never, LOL) rather than make only a few quid out of it. At the end it's a cool piece of kit for home use as well as a car stereo

Cheers,
