After three years of putting it off, I'm *finally* buying an Empeg. I hope that it's everything that it's cracked up to be! I've wanted one of these contraptions for so darn long!

Congrats. Yes, it's everything it's cracked up to be. Where are you getting it and what kind?

Congratulations, and good luck. Have you got one lined up yet? I checked on carplayer.com a few weeks ago and could see no sign of empegs for sale anymore.

Have a good read of the threads in the For Sale section.

It's a 2a and I'll post more about it once I've made the final arrangements which ought to be completed shortly.

I'm afraid of saying too much lest I jinx it!

You won't regret buying one, that's a promise!

I don't want to put a dampener on your purchase but have you read this thread about a certain individual scamming money from good people here? It would be a real pity if you (or anyone else for that matter) fell victim to that particular individual.

Actually, I just bought it off E-bay. One fella really gave me a run on the price but I was decided that I was going to win. Besides, it's still cheaper than it was when these puppies were selling through Sonic Blue initially!

Anyway, I haven't heard back from the fella yet but, judging by his past E-bay history, I'm fairly confident that it'll all work out well. Then I just have to pay the guys at Myer-Emco to install it into my '99 Miata!

You'll love it.
Hopefully the guys at Myer-Emco won't be too confused by it.
