Hello All,

I've not been active here in ages. I used to have a nice little system consisting of a G68, HD621 and 3 DSP33 speakers. It was a great sounding system (probably the best I've ever had) but I ended up having some problems with it, my DSP speakers stopped changing volume and I really struggled to fix it. I even found a friendly hiker nearby and took my kit to his and everything works, but not at home.

I got wound up a bit and ended up selling the G68 and HD621, but I never did end up selling the 3 speakers. Now, many years I'm thinking that I should either sell them, or use them. either choice demands that I know if they actually work.

Being the lowly 33's I know that I can't really use them on their own and I'll need a processor of some sort to control them with, but I don't want to spend a fortune.

So I guess that brings me to the 500 series choices. What's the going rate for such things these days? I don't need the 568.2mm as I know that that VGA connector adds some significant extra cost and I'm not planning to buy a HD621 again. I suppose the best choice would be a classic 568 but that still might be pricey.

561 and 565? are they fairly cheap these days? you're going to ask me what my budget is aren't you? I don't know, but I guess in the low several hundred pounds.. maybe more for the right thing. Is that too light?

If all this works then I'll either confirm everything works properly and put the lot up for sale... or maybe I'll stick it in the office and have a mini listening system in there, replace a little teac/triad setup I have.

grateful for any help.

Many thanks

David
