| 2 channel Poll: Vote: Do you use Tubes or SS? I guess I should explain how i got to this point. Started with Hybrids, got curious and got a ARC d70Mk2, then a CJ Mv50, nice, but I got power hungry. went to bigger tube amps, ARC m100s....went crazy and went OTL, Counterpoint OTL nonetheless, s... | |
| Fedex, didn't it used to mean Federal Express? I have met approx 10 people in my life who had previously worked at UPS or Fedex as the people who load packages into planes or trucks off the conveyor belt. Not one of them ever want that job again, or were at all pleased to work there in that ca... | |
| What would you do about a sleazy buyer?? I strongly disagree with those who state the 1st email wins over a local sale. I will bend over backwards to sell locally, it eliminates UPS/FedEx thugs from dropping gear and thus kicking a little life out of them. If the shoe was on the other fo... | |

| Puff Goes the Sunfire Mk II Subwoofer this may sound weird but my cheapo HT all in one Onkyo subwoofer does the same thing and it drove me nuts. After follwoing its pattern, I saw it did that when a car drove by and when my garage door opened. Cell phone and radio signals was the culp... | |
| Are you allowed to increase the selling price ? why couldnt you increase a sales price? stores can also charge more than the MSRP if they wish to do so. | |
| 7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Flex, if you think most esoteric cable manufacturers have engineers, RD depts, human resource depts, water coolers, company picniks, and the weekly payday meetings, I think you may be sadly disappointed. Maybe after selling 5000 power cords may th... | |
| Safe audiogon transactions; lowering the bar. Interesting info so far, I would like to point out especially in the comments made by Ultrakaz, that there are reasons why I would require payment up front. I tend to underprice much of the things I sell here for various reasons:1. to sell it fast... | |
| Feedback does not alway tell all from what ive learned selling over the net and especially here and selling "high end" is that people who buy this stuff are finicky about stuff. No sale is a sale until I have money in my PayPal acct. I am not going to lose another sale trying to ... | |
| Against everything that high end cables stand for I don't think Upgrade allways means more $$ as Herman and Sean says. I don't fully agree with "synergy" always being the answer either. (I used to own an all Pioneer rack system in the 80s) Could it be that my mostly tubed based system needed some... | |

| Against everything that high end cables stand for Seanthe wire are 3 twisted runs of cable (the wire is silver) for each lead. So there are 4 runs of 3 twisted wires. I in no way meant this thread to be a plug for MGD or to suggest that I am trying to skimp on costs in my system. I was buying a M... | |
| Anyone know anything about Counterpoint speakers? I believe that Albert Von Schweikert had something to do in the design of that speaker line, so they would be far from junk. | |
| Audio Matiere/Audio Sculpture I believe Marigo audio was the US Importer of Audio Matiere and may have a lot more knowledge about the product line. | |
| Non Audiophiles are funny people Tmitchell,that is hilarious and just what I would expect of people. Never mind the Joule, how does that Bose sound!! |
