Looking for a TX-RZ50? For $1,399 and in stock?
Beats my Denon 760H that didn’t have preouts and only had 7 channels. Not much in stock can compare at the price point. My teenage son said no to the Elite which is the same unit in orange and tacky badges. This will at least compliment his McInto...

Concerning high end audio names in new cars
I had to stop reading these answers. I’m sure there are a couple of experienced, auto sound aficionados in the group, but those that aren’t, started wading in, and it quickly got maddening. I don’t have the time or inclination to even start the bo... 
Lose weight or buy better fitting pants
They have those. They remove the room from the equation. It’s their motto    
Buyer Beware
What they are doing, is sending a postcard general delivery and PayPal will see the tracking number delivered to the city of record. They will not notice that your name is not on it and side with the seller simply because they provided tracking in... 
Buyer Beware
You’re not overthinking it for him. This has been a tactic for decades. The account and routing numbers will be correct, but the name won’t be, and it will not be caught right away. By the time it does, your friend will think it has cleared. These... 
Best XLRs under $500 a pair
Avoid anything with PVC.   
Many higher end preamps are dated and ugly, why is this?
CJ was dated when I first said no to my sound advice salesman in the early 90s. He didn’t understand. Fortunately the Krell KSA -100S came out soon thereafter (I did with Adcom until then). Using McIntosh Hybrid these days and it looks the part. T... 
Question about speaker angle
In some cases, you see that because the owner either refuses to compromise the vest look for the best sound, or they simply don’t believe the difference is worth compromising the look (WAF can come into play). Of course, they might have found that... 
mcintosh mc-123 4K versus 123-8K
Aside from the 8K video (2 additionall horizontal lines of resolution and 2 additional vertical lines of resolution) which yields a picture no less than 16 times the overall clarity of a Standard High Definition, no, there are not. I/O was a lobot... 
VPI Weisline Tonearm cable - Have not found any discussion on this cable
The first time I scam got scammed it was 3:12 AM when AG sent me a notice that the item I had been tracking in their system, had just been posted. Through the confusion of being under the influence of a sleep aid (I worked late and had to get up e... 
$5K KUZMA TONEARM FOR ONLY $690! Gryphon Diablo for Only $699!
Yes, I agree more needs to be done. I have been ripped off multiple times to the tune of thousands of dollars (hard work at an hourly wage by this un-retired, hobbled working senior citizen) and had PayPal side with a scammer on a McIntosh integra...

Those that upgraded from Tekton
This form would be so much more enjoyable for me if everyone provided links. If you’d really like to help out a company by recommending them, you could do them a real solid by exerting that little bit extra. It’s much easier for a person that is a...
