| Help with "popping" Quad 2805 From your description the seller sold you a defective loudspeaker and should be held responsible. | |
| Odyssey Audio: Sent amp for service 4 months ago, no amp / no contact back The story as presented doesn't seem plausible. A store sold you an amp that you thought was an Odyssey Stratos, but it wasn't. You paid $1,000 for a used amp that list for $1,375 new?

| Latest Absolute Sound I would rather read a review about a minivan. Even if I had the money and inclination to buy a mega performance vehicle it would be a waste. I'm an average driver and I could spend the rest of my life on a race track and still not approach the p... | |
| What vintage speaker might you use today But are they appropriate for people who aren't building extreme or superior audio systems, but instead want to listen to music? Ancient loudspeaker theorists would argue YES!!! | |
| Pathos In Control Preamp - Any Experience? I've been using one for close to two years and am very happy with its performance. It is very well built and easy to operate. The only feature missing is a balance control. It uses a pair of 12au7 which can be used to alter some tonal and prese... | |
| Why are people always getting into pissing matches because they think what they have is better As if the majority of your post are nice???? | |
