Hi there,

I've just been passed this as a hand me down, is it any good? I've no idea about these sorts of things. Can't find too much info on the net!!!

Here are some pictures

Any advice welcome.........

Also any idea how much these things are worth??

Cheers

The decoder is several generations adrift and consequently worth very little.
I bought a pair of the CS-1's (you have 3 of them) for £16 off eBay 2 years ago.
The MS-10's (MS-10i's?) were about £80 new 15 years ago.

Mind you, if the speakers are all OK you could get a cheap 5.1 receiver and subwoofer and connect them to your pc - it'd be better than a set of pc speakers!

Thanks man, that's kinda what I thought to be honest, i'll chuck it on the bay and see how I go as I have the Big Logitechs for the PC .......

The MS Decoder one was one of the earliest standalone dolby pro logic decoders with built in amps. In it's day, it was OK, but very quickly superceeded by DD and DTS amps. It's worth pretty much bugger all now.

Now that brings back some memorys.
This was in incorporated into my 1st home cinema system.
At the time watching Aliens VHS with Dolby Pro Logic surround was a revelation.
So old hat these days though that it's not even funny.
