can we still sort by zip code in items for sale?
Hi DtcMan I'm having one of those: Gee Why didn't I think of that moments. Your method of zip code search presents the listings a lot neater than what I was doing. It really slipped by me to put the zip code in the Audiogon search box. This really...

Threshold S200 or Phase linear 400
