Used, better bang for the buck. I buy new interconnects, but if too pricey will go to used. Just bought a unit via AC. 99% per cent from ebay including SACD's. Ebay is great if......look for 100% for feedback. If less than 100%, I read the complaints and neutral feedback. Most all of it looks new, performs to specs. On average buying used is a better value. I did buy 3 open box/demo items recently, all in mint condition.
How many people here generally buy used?
Just curious. Most of my equipment I purchased new. My Firstwatt J2 was a demo that I swear was new. Outside of a DAC where latest tech may be desired, buying used (if a fair price) seems to be a great way to purchase something you normally would not be able to afford. Of course, condition, care of component etc needs to be taken into consideration
