Greetings All,  After seeing all the emails re: the Novatron in
Germany and the M400 in Florida, I had to contribute my tuppence
worth.

The Novatron looks REAL nice ! SMS2 motor-control within and
smaller power-pack (same as MK-V) . Preamp prob. the PML type.
2000 Euros for starting price is VERY reasonable . Will most likely
sell for  3500 Euros, +/-   .

Which brings me to the M400 on eBay in Florida.
The machine is ALL white,incl knobs/keys/feet. And photographed
on white-sand beach.  Or in a cloud of fog/mist , the  "Triangle ? "
Which is  why you  can't  see it in the photo.
........Or covered in suspicious white-powder...........
....Which maybe explains the $8-12K cost.

All I'm gonna say on this one.......Cheers,lads. -- Jerry the K. --
