Buying used audio equipment in peron in Canada
@allenf1963 The UK has long since ceased to be a world power so it’s doubtful how much sway, if any, it still holds over Canada and its other former colonies; and if in fact it does, how much does that sway actually matters. At this point Canada...

Fascinating reading! Thank you, Tom. You are right, there’s a biography in there waiting to be written. Until then, I look forward to your future posts.  
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
No, that could create another problem. No power disconnecting means at the hard wired piece of equipment. Is a disconnect required at permanently connected appliances? Generally, electric cooktops, dishwashers and the like don't have a disconne... 
Buying used audio equipment in peron in Canada
I would ask anyone who can’t understand our reaction to all of this, to please try to think about what you would do if the leader of another country voiced this type of desire towards your country. @newfzx7  That's fair. It also seems fair to... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
Oh and that wiring method would yield you an isolated ground, by definition

@61falcon  Did the Bryston folks explain why aftermarket cables would throw their amps into protection? That's interesting

@aberyclark  Way to yank the dog's chain, man!  
Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype)
@jimijam  How much are you asking though, and do you live in a major city?

@samureyex  Considering that you called @thecarpathian a "pathetic little liar" even though he wasn't even lying at all, an apology certainly seems the right - and only - thing to do here.  
The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues.
@audition__audio  I was not familiar with Trilogy so I looked up the brand. Really beautiful amps. However, nothing in the published specs suggest they would excel at driving difficult loads.  Have you looked at Accuphase? Some of their amps are...

Just to clarify (and I am ordering my Ferrari now) the tariff will be paid by France on that French wine, right? Yes, but you can bet they will deviously pass it on to American consumers. Just watch!

To be fair, it's not clear whether OP fully understands the reasons why his original post was received with a backlash.

And 200% tariff on French wines and spirits! Oh, wait...
