Anyone else experiencing the rude highend retailer

Wadia 861se with GNS vs Esoteric or Emm players
Talon4, Congrats on your decision to send your 861se to Steve for the statement upgrade, you are going to be one happy camper upon its return..8^) Give the unit a little time to burn in, then its off on a musical journey par excellence...

Subwoofer Question on Placement.
Try placing your sub on top of an ASC SUB-TRAP and placement issues will become less of an issue... its an amazing upgrade for any sub owner, imho...good luck... 
cdp's you had glitches with
I would think that any manufacturer of fine electronics would "want" to go beyond the warranty expiration to take care of "their" customer base, if not, then company names are strewn about, as in this post, and the end result is bad publicity, whi... 
PS Audio Noise Harvester
Nano, seems like an expensive late night light show , I think i"ll pass 8^)... 
Reasonably accurate, inexpensive dB meter--ideas?
Joey, You answered your own question...Badly... At some point, in the future of this great country, either we will stick together as one or fly apart as none...
