| Can someone help me pick out my first speakers? Your best option (in my not so humble opinion) is to buy a pair of Vanatoo speakers. But, wait... you're not only buying a pair of speakers. You are buying an amp and a preamp with optical... With Bluetooth connectivity, I use my phone to stream ... | |

| Shipping 80lb amps. Carlsbad is correct. Do not allow buyer to arrange shipping nor payment and to deal with the shipper, that is, use his (buyer’s) account. Insurance will not cover anything shipped to oneself. As a seller, YOU arrange and pay for all shipping co... | |
| Audiophile Jargon Demonstrated Thanks for the list of definitions. It helps to understand what we, us, are describing, even if we need to expand on our definitions. Yes, some of us have been down that road, but it helps to try and stay in the lane so everybody has a reference p... | |

| Buyer Dispute No doubt, things happen. My buddy received a very expensive Pillium amp from Greece, and, 2 big capacitors were bent and loose. These are big Coke Can size capacitors. Pillium, without hesitation, had him return the amp and they did the repair.... | |

| Axpona 2022 what impressed you? Very good sound, especially SCM100ASLT speakers, Cabasse Peligrina fully inetegrated Borresen Wilson original David Wilson speakers Aretai speakers from Latvia Bayz look so Kool and sound to match. | |
| The Music at AXPONA 2022 So true! Just noise and sounds in so many rooms. We made one last sweep as most vendors were packing up their equipment and I heard the opening chords of Cream’s White Room. It was like “music to my ears!” I almost ran to that room, sat down a... | |
