Title: here's what NOS med-res monitors look like ...
Post by: Superully on May 07, 2012, 10:08:06 PM: my austrian arcade-friend alex found a guy who had four unused (but unboxed) NOS med-res monitors sitting on a shelf in his warehouse. those med-res monitors are damn rare, but not only that, they were DAMN CHEAP!!! we decided to split both the monitors and the costs amongst the two of us and guess how much i paid ... 160 euros - for the pair!!!

here's some photos alex just sent me :arrow:

You can also remove the tube and have a minty fresh tube for your Amplifone ;D
