Have a look at Stel Tigup 201h made in Italy. You might find one in your price range if you look round suppliers and the machine is also sold rebadged as a Murex Transtig here or HTP in America
Awesome price too!
His budget is £500-£1000, that won't get him a used Dynasty, let alone a new one.
Reg, unfortunately the only new AC/DC machine you could possibly get for that sort of money would be a Chinese inverter one.
Are you considering used ones too?
Inverter or transformer based?
