| Caveat Emptor The customer in most cases are always right and Apos Audio you should feel ashamed of yourselves. Word spreads quiickly and if you want to remain in business I suggest you give your customers the benefit of the doubt and keep them happy! | |
| Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers? A system is a total of its parts and the end result hopefully would be positive but I am from the camp that speakers are the most important purchase and should be where the most money should be invested. I have had audiophiles over and one told me... | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? There is nothing wrong with integrateds, it takes the guess work out of matching a preamp to power amp and eliminates some cabling. The only thing is you need to buy one that don't share the same power supply unless that power supply is way over-b... | |
| Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ... I thought "a straight wire with gain" is unachievable currently but would be the most desirable scenario for ultimately the best possible sound. | |
| Western Electric looking for consumer feedback to make new tubes No, don't delete this thread, There might be some additional, more current comments to add and I have already just submitted feedback requesting the 6922 tube. | |

| All I Wanted To Do Was Listen To Music tablejockey, maybe you could send one of those fine looking all transistor radios my way, just for the purpose of demonstrating and testing! | |
| Paypal Changes for 2022 I do not like paypal. They have no loyalty to their customers. If they made any changes for 2022 it is not for your benefit. I don't know how they tax items twice. Once when the item was sold brand new and again when is sold used, it sounds illega... | |
| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? Cabling and power cord choices choices can make a huge difference, not always in a positive manner as they are system dependent and could require experimentation. | |
| Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money? I wonder if High End and High Cost are one of the same. But I think most of us possess enough maturity to understand that some others have more disposable income, it's just a fact of life. However some of the more interesting but simple systems on... | |
| The Big Misconception About Electricity As for electricity, why pay for something you can't see? By the way, has anyone seen that robot that's cruising Audiogon if so report him immediately! | |
