Fraud and scam, how many of you are victims? I was scammed a week ago by some POS on Audiomart for $300…I had posted a want ad for a PS Audio UPC-200 and this $h*thead responded with pics of the gear and he gave the right answers to a coupe of my questions. In hindsight there were red flags ... | |

eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough. Screw eBay and PayPal, I rarely use either anymore. I was was reading another thread on how they both will start issuing 1099’s in 2022 (23?) for sales in excess of $600...they can go KMA. | |
Drivers and how to clean them: Notes from ScanSpeak I use one of those swiffer duster things on all my gear, works really well. | |

Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... @decooney excellent thank you for the insight, I’m really intrigued to hear how this all turns out! | |
New ebay payments require SS#? Screw eBay, PayPal and the IRS. there are other ways to complete a transaction. Apple Pay, Venmo, Zelle, crypto and old school USPS money orders. No way am I paying tax on a item I already paid tax on when I initially purchased it. | |

Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... @ghosthouse I sourced mine from Hand Art Cables (Greece?) They make em as per Yazaki’s specs. Mine have the gold plated Switchcraft 3502AAU RCA’s really nicely made for the money. I was interested in the Dueland speaker cables also, couldn’t find ... | |
Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... @ghosthouse Fantastic reviews, if smooth, natural and realistic (as they are described) is appealing to you then be prepared to buy a set after your done reading up, for the money I could not pass on trying them.Start here:https://jeffsplace.posi... | |
Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... @ghosthouse Correct, my friend came over Sat & Sun. Prior upgrades have been clear noticeable improvements. when I upped my amp game from a Meridian 556 to the ARC D400 Mk2 I was jaw dropped. Same for when I upgraded my DAC..It was when I star... | |
Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... @ghosthouse So I did the a/b this past weekend....Saturday morning a friend of mine came over and I stepped outside while he decided to put either the Cardas or Shirokazu Yazaki Belden 8402 in play. Music would be the same selection of Qobuz Hi-Re... | |
Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... Update: I’ve had the Cardas running for 6 days and within this time I’ve added Cardas speaker jumpers and wired them up using the Nordnost configuration...this weekend I’ll give a listen and then have my friend swap out for the Belden’s (or not). ... | |
Initial disappointment with 1st set of “expensive’ IC’s... @jetter @robert53The seller was honest and the cables came with the Cardas cert card...I’m gonna give them a call regardless. I’ll see if they can tell me if the cert # jives with the cable type.I also looked online at the counterfeits...if you lo... |
