The Problem with Synergistic Research
Ozzy,Thanks for jogging my memory on these details. You are correct. This is what I was trying to get at. The SR trade-up program is no gift to customers. It is well conceived to be as profitable as possible. An upgrade program would never generat... 
The Problem with Synergistic Research
Ozzy,If you had the Apex you were at the top of the heap -- before the Element series came out. Is this what you are referring to when you mention upgrades?Mrtennis,I am concerned about SR because I like a lot of their products and I still have a ... 
The Problem with Synergistic Research
Hi Ted_d,Thank you for your very long and detailed post. By the way, for the record, my ID on Audiogon is Sabai, not Sabi.Not to worry. I'm old enough to have very thick skin. With all due respect, the issue on the table is not my posts. The issue...

Use of isolation transformer
Can you rewire a medical grade isolation transformer so that it becomes a balanced transformer? 
Top Ten Speaker Cables of all time?...

You think Audiogon has problems ... look at Ebay
Thanks for all your posts. This is very enlightening. 
You think Audiogon has problems ... look at Ebay
Elizabeth and Onhwy61,Agreed. I changed my mind -- for a very good reason. With all due respect, the only problem with your line of reasoning here is that the seller, cd sherman, agreed with my "change of mind" and offered a refund -- and then ren... 
You think Audiogon has problems ... look at Ebay
Elizabeth and Onhwy61,You got some facts wrong. Please note that the seller, cdsherman, agreed to receive the item back and agreed to issue a refund. He was manipulating for a positive feedback. Once he got it he reneged. I am not looking for symp...
