I lied to my wife about the price of Stax 009S headphone

Audio research VSi75 -why so many for sale?
+1, ebm. However, it does gives you the advantage to negotiate and cherry pick the best from the lot 😉Go for it!

“This is a forum to discuss impressions on all things hifi and music....without regard for who is into the hobby for the most virtuous of motivations, right?”I concur, @three_easy_payments.

“But I am trying to save the money for next 3 years or so to get WE vintage horn speaker which cost 300k$ and up.”Once you buy that $300K speakers, then you will lust after $100K MSB DAC and $10K speaker cable. Hope you have a plan in place to tel...

In reading your threads, one thing clearly stands out is your creativeness to ‘brag’ about the gear. I don’t know about anyone else here but lately you are coming across as someone who goes through these intermittent ‘urges’ to showcase your audio... 
What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak?
Ansuz Acoustics DTC Footers....$900 a piece 😳 
Buyer request to delay shipment after purchase
I agree with previous two posters. I have done that couple of times in recent months. The key is to get paid as soon as you accepts buyer’s offer and then ship the item on a agreed future date.  
MSB select II vs all dacs ?
“Personally we have A/B 76 different digital front ends.”@worldwidewholesales, Is the number 76 comes from your life long exposure to digital front ends or direct comparison with Rockna DAC? We would love to see your top 10 A/B comparisons with Ro... 
MSB select II vs all dacs ?
“The only true way for the end user to know what they prefer is through listening in their own system.”+1, @ricred1. Your experience with Rockna coincide with mine. I had bought the Signature version and as good as this DAC is, it wasn’t the right...

My expert tips on building a sensible world class audio system.
@viber7, So far so good, did you forget the cables??? I suggest you reach out to @roberjerman for cables. He will ‘hook’ you up with SOTA IC’s and PC’s that will only cost you pennies on the dollar 😉 
Due to the incessant spam ads on this forum I'll stop contributing
I use AdGuard on my iPad..no more annoying ads and pop ups.  
I'm sure my new Moon 780D can reveal more than what my DH Labs AES/EBU delivers it.
I recommend Audience Au24 SE or Acrolink 7N-D7000 AES/EBU digital cables. I’ve used them both and they are excellent cables. You should call the cable company and get few cables to try out from their extensive library. Be patient with the process ... 
Our Responsibility
