Charney is not too far from me BUT he's charging a lot for some VERY Mediocre looking speakers. They Look like something you could make in your basement. Im sure they sound wonderful 
Pass Labs XA25 vs LTA ZOTL40 -- Which creates a greater sense of image palpability?
There is a review on the AUDIO BEATNIK site which mentions all 3 of these amps and gives comparisons (XA25/SIT-3/LTA).   I couldn't attach the thread here...must be against Audiogon rules or something. 
Pass Labs XA25 vs LTA ZOTL40 -- Which creates a greater sense of image palpability?
Most people I know prefer the SIT-3 to the XA25. Never heard of the other amp your referring to. 
The best speaker for a small room...at any price point.
You can try AUDIO NOTE Speakers. They are meant to be placed Toed In from the corners of the back wall. They range in price from 3K - 30K (The affordable ones) and come in up to 20 different finishes. Its a bit overwhelming how many options are av... 
Sopra N°2
I just auditioned the Sopra 2's hoping to like them. I listen 90% of the time to Classic Rock/80's Rock (Not the REAL hard stuff).  These speakers were paired with Mcintosh Equipment 7200 and something else.  They sounded OK with the softer stuff ... 
Best sound in old late 70s early 80s receivers
#mewsickbuffI have over 50 of these mid-late 70's in stock and have owned well over 100. The worst sounding brands to me are Yamaha "Natural Sound" and Sony receivers.  Tandberg is another dog. Kenwood is better than these BUT middle of the pack f... 
Bel Canto ACI600 vs Black EX Sepates
Its only out of line in terms of resale value which you might want to do your homework on. Luxman you can get those pieces brand new for $10,500 each and re-sell for 8-9K easily. The loss is 20% worse case scenario...compared to 50-60% trying to s... 
Bel Canto ACI600 vs Black EX Sepates
Yea I dont think so. You can view the thread MY LONG LIST OF AMPS for example and the Black System doesnt even make the Top 10. Luxman Combo is in the Top 3.  Its a long thread but there is detailed info on the Black System.  Another reason not to...

Which 300b amplifier for Devore O/96
There was just a pair of Haut Brion's on Audiogon/Audio Mart in the past week or so...reasonably priced. 
Speaker upgrade question - Wilson vs Focal
Coming from somebody in SF I can understand you taking offense. We don't suffer fools in the Northeast. If telling it like it is makes one socially challenged then so be it. Im in good company. 
Mirror Audio Tubador DAC recommendations
If your going to get it make sure you get all the Upgrade options. Will run you about $2200. There is another thread here on Audiogon with all the info/details about the upgrades 
Speaker upgrade question - Wilson vs Focal
#gochurchgoYou’ve bashed the DAWS on numerous threads...and the only person that’s ever had a negative thing to say about them. Numerous shows have glowing reviews about the Daw/160 Arc Combo by various reporters and dealers (who sell neither bran... 
Do You Remember Your First CD Player?
Talk about bringing an old thread back from the dead. My 1st CD player was a ADC 16/2R around 1984/85. I still have it along with my 1st Receiver purchased in High School (Technics SA-205). The CD Player still works and sounds REALLY Good.  This c...
