| How NOT to sell an item on Audiogon Ok, first I have not ever sold on AGON but have purchased plenty. Here is what I look for in an ad. Pictures, front,sides, top and most importantly the BACK showing all connections clearly. Out of focus pics are useless. Next condition rating it’s... | |

| calling all Guru;s, Ideas on audiophyle high effeiciency speakers solicited Having ordered a Rogue Pharaoh hybrid Integrated recently, spur of the moment I then realized that I might have a problem.

| Opinions requested Wished I knew how to make heads or tails out of the graph. | |
| Opinions requested Thanks georgehifi, In your opinion would the Rogue Pharaoh at 185 into 8ohms and 350 into 4 ohms be acceptable to drive the 803s at moderate listening levels say 85 t0 90 db? |
