@czarivey  The only issue with that selling goods are sometimes not for income, Sometimes you lose money if selling it cheaper.  Problem solved then, no tax will be due.

@alfa100 what are your speakers?  
The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"!
@aw-agd @johnah5  Dr. Michael Bump is a renowned musician and among other things, Professor of Percussion Studies at the Truman State University (Department of Music) and a Director at the Percussive Arts Society Board of Directors. I guess th... 
Replacement for Shindo
@alfa100  You are getting alot of suggestions and its nice that everyone likes what they like. Alot of great gear out there.   Your question, however, was centered on the Shindo Montille CV391. That amp was designed around an reasonably obscure... 
Replacement for Shindo
It sure seems that some are posting their own wares. In fact, quite a few recommendations. While Im sure they are fine pieces of gear, in what ways are they similar and/or complimentary to Shindo?  
Roon Endpoint Streamers - Direct Comparisons between Current Offerings?
@fastfreight haha...about every two years I sell off my second system, upgrade my main system further and then...begin building a second system all over again. Self loathing is commonplace in my house while doing so. Hope you are well!  
Roon Endpoint Streamers - Direct Comparisons between Current Offerings?
@fastfreight @mitch2  The MU1 sounds amazing with my MM Tambaqui.  But it is not as yet functional as a Roon endpoint ONLY.  Per my conversations with Grimm, it soon will be.  This is really only an issue if you have two systems, where one runs ...

Replacement for Shindo
@alfa100    Have you heard Shindo and want it or have you read about it and therefore you think you want it? It will help us make recommendations.   From what I’ve heard, there is a pause in the manufacturing. The Shindo’s have been going non-...

@bmwalpina  What if the margin was 70%? 60%? 50%? Since you dont know its as likely as your 80% guess. Sales and marketing is an important role, however, there are alot more good salesmen than good speaker designers. You make it sound easy and re... 
Borresen Loudspeakers
@bmwalpina    There are only a few things Id like to point out….you havent got any idea what the speakers sound like nor do you have any idea what the speakers cost to produce nor their margins. Yet, you opine that they are “legal robbery” with ... 
DCS Bartok v Meitner MA3 v Esoteric N05XD
@acurus I agree 100% with @rossb . I had a Bartok in my system a while back and I found it almost unlistenable, especially in the context of your query. I owned multiple Meitners in multiple systems and loved it. The sound, the functionality, it w... 
Borresen Loudspeakers
@bmwalpina you seem to be missing the subtle nuances. Intelligent people of means simply don’t buy what doesn’t make sense from their particular value judgement. I’m not saying you should or shouldn’t buy anything, no one is. I AM EMPHATICALLY say... 
Borresen Loudspeakers
@bmwalpina   I don’t know how you feel, but if you know that someone about to sell you something with 80% mark up... do you still feel good buying it? If I like something and I feel it is worth it to me then I dont particularly care what som...
