Your favorite Small Apartment Speakers
Proac Super Tablette, simply amazing dinky speakers.   Need a good/fast subwoofer though. 
... WHAT POWER CORD(S) ARE PLAYING IN YOU SYSTEM TODAY?
Mark Tunis Black Shadow High Current Power cords on everything, 3’ & 4’ lengths. 
My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon
I think dealers, such as AudioTroy and others, add real value to the conversation.   They have experiences that we can not duplicate, or at least I can’t, as I do not have access to the equipment they do.   I find their contributions for the most ... 
Have you been surprised by power cable changes? s
I too was late to the power cable game.  A few months ago, I splurged on some Mark Tunis Stealth power cables and the difference is absolutely stunning.   It is not subtle.   Much more bass, tight, well defined, and dynamic too.   Much airier miss... 
My Triad of Integrateds
Interestingly absent are Krell, Musical Fidelity, BAT, Plinius, PrimaLuna, Parasound, and Nord.   I’m looking for a high quality <$5k used integrated with HT bypass and subwoofer out; these were the brands I’ve come across...   Of these the Nor...

Most “disappeared” speakers.

Hello hello All,My apologies for going dark.   My Dad passed away a few weeks ago and I’ve been out of the loop for a bit.    Thank you for your thinking and contributions.A few more questions to posit...What at do you think about room correction ... 
Dynamics and resolution...
I’ve had great luck buying used Chord Cables Epic series interconnect and speaker cables.    Certainly worth the experimentation in your specific environment.    
What are the speakers you very rarely find in the Used market(Audiogon or Anywhere)?
XStatic full range electrostatics as there were less than 100 pairs made (awesome sound BTW).   Triangle Stratos Volante 260 is another great speaker as was Gale.   I also don't see a lot of Ohm's higher-end speakers for sale.   All of which I sti...
