Would you cancel 3,250 deal cause 16 short?
Kridgel,Well, when you have a two-channel system that retails for well over $50K, I don't think that $100 cable will quite cut it for you. I am currently using a $300 cable from Transparent and I hate my system to the point that I don't even liste... 
Would you cancel 3,250 deal cause 16 short?
Jwrobinson, well it is a crazy hobby anyways, you see once you try the better cable, it is very hard to go back. By the way the cable new is listed for $10K. I thought you would like to know that.

Would you cancel 3,250 deal cause 16 short?

Any problems selling equipment outside of USA?
I live in United Arab Emirates and have bought and sold many things on Audiogon sometimes to/from the US and others to Europe. No problems, the same rules apply. Sometimes sellers worry about customs. You see the customs are the responsibility of ... 
If you see a fraud - report it here - Audiogoners
this is very interesting, I wonder what Audiogon is doing about this? I hope we Audiogoner don't have to deal with such problem. 
Tube amp power rating question.
Herman,thanks for the info, I have two questions on this subject, the first how would you set the taps on the Tube amp if your speaker nominal impedance is 4 ohms but it can go down to 2 ohms, would you set the amp on 4 or 2? the second is how one... 
help with spade connectors
Everyone thanks. To Jeff Delman, thank you for your comments, you are correct, that is what one has to risk when buying used. But hey, I would never have bought the cable new at $5,000. They are Transparent Reference/XL. Now you know how expensive... 
Biggest Improvement Speaker Cable Or Interconnects
According to the guys from Transparent Audio, they claim that one should start at the source and make his way down. So start with your digital cable, DAC to preamp, etc. So speaker’s cable would be the last thing to upgrade. Good luck. Mohamed

DCS Verdi Elgar Purcell VS. Audio Aero Capitole
Jtinn, I think you should try the dCS gear with the new firewire upgrade. Also the Verdi is a great combo. I used the dCS gear with Sonic Frontiers top gear, I didn't feel much difference, but when I got the Verdi and used the 1394, it was somethi...
