Subject: Monitors
I have a pair of Acorn 28ADF-32 monitors (these were with the spares
collection I got a few years ago), they work quite well, I believe they
were originally shipped with Master Compacts but I could be wrong.
Have audio in (phono) and both a DIN and Scart Connection (although the
scart does not appear to have the composite video connected, only RGB)
:)
