-this line is for line eaters I am interested in buying a Nakamichi BX-2. Judging from recent news I doubt that I will be discouraged from this choice. However, being a college student, I am on a rather limited budget. Does anybody out there know any good and relatively inexpensive mail order places that carry it? I am hoping to get it for about $300, or less if possible. Thanx in advance- fritzz the zebra :-)

$300.00? No way, Jose... The lowest I have ever seen a BX-2 is $379 through
audio unlimited in San Jose, CA (408-279-0122) a while back. Nakamichis are
rather carefully controlled by Mama Nak and it's hard to find a bargain better
than 15-20% off list. However, you may be able to get a reasonable deal
RIGHT NOW in the stores since the BX-1 and -2 have been replaced by the
BX-100 and BX-150 (the same innards, but adding an automatic master fader
control{nice feature, but not totally necessary} and new {cleaner} cosmetics)
and I'm sure some dealers would like to clean out their old stock.
But $300? At a minimum, $50 more.
