SkyfiAudio

I’m a satisfied customer and have had nothing but excellent help and advice from both Fernando and Elliot. I’m willing to pay a bit more knowing that they are there to support me if an issue should occur and they rarely have. But when they have, Fernando has been able to walk me through and resolve it. I’ve an affinity for older Marantz tube gear and have purchased my 7, 8b, and 10b from them, as well as a model 19 and Thorens TD 125 mkII. When shopping these 50 year old pieces online, I can always find less expensive examples for sale, but I question the originality and condition. When purchasing from Skyfi, I’m confident that any issues have been sorted and addressed in manner consistent with the original design and intent. That peace of mind and support comes with a price I’ve no regrets paying.

Please, I bought a very clean McCormack DNA 1 with a R1 upgrade for 900 bucks, rt here on Audiogon: their price for a dead stock one $2,000.  My, As New - Cal Audio Labs CD with remote $475 theirs $1,100.

The are SO INSANELY overpriced they should be committed.

For their comically over priced gear the LEAST they can do is pack it nicely.....

Hey lets buy a super clean Pioneer Elite rack system for $22,000!!

I guess if you have tons of green to burn and have no ability or patience to search  (or are a  dentist) then this is your place!!!

Lets by someones wife's used BMW too from them while we are at it.

As others have pointed out, their pricing is most off-putting. I have had dealings with The Music Room and only have good things to say about them. Their descriptions are far more detailed than SkyFi and include images of any blemish you are going to find. Their pricing is more sane too. Delivery is fast and their packing is superb. With all that being said, I have no doubt that SkyFi is an honest broker, and there are situations where I could see myself buying from them, but the pricing is a concern.

Look, SkyFi is a niche operation that caters to the carriage trade in one of the world's wealthiest, largest metro areas.  They may not be for everybody, or even 85% of us, but if they are honest about what they offer as apparently they are, then more power to them.

Precisely! Both SkyFi and TMR are indeed Audio Brokers, serving a certain Client.

Watching those videos on YouTube, does anyone know why Fernando wears those brace(s) on his hands?

Happy Listening!
