| What is "low ball" I don't see anything fishy at all. I'd give him all the personal information he wants to know and throw in my PayPal password just in case he might need that as he was ripping me off. Just make sure your bank can process checks FROM NIGERIA! | |
| Pick up only? where? I think most people will quickly recognize whether or not a zip code is within "pick up only" distance. So no need. | |
| Tube sellers NOS means just what it says: New Old Stock.How much you believe the tube is actually NOS depends on the tube. NOS Mullard EL34? Maybe not.NOS CBS Hytron 807? Good chance it is. And many rectifiers.Just my opinion of course | |
| What is "low ball" 01-31-12: Polk432"As far as lowballers (not frugal people) go, they seem to be the first ones to complain about how little they make, or not getting raises."Yeah, one guy offered me $400 for a $1000 item:"Will you take $400. My boss is a jerk and ... | |
| What is "low ball" I never understood why people get upset about low ballers. As a seller, just ignore, decline, accept, or counter.I recently had a pair of speakers for sale here listed @ $1900. I got several offers for $1000, and one for $800 and seller pays shipp... | |
| How do I install my cartridge? In most cases, properly installing a cartridge requires at least a little knowledge and ability. If you don't have a screwdriver, don't know where to mount it, and can't get it off the glass thingy I think you may be miles away from doing a proper... | |
| speakers for a small room Milpai - I guess you could say I've done 3 things to improve the sound in my small box of a room:1. Speakers appropriate for the room. I ended up with smallish floorstanders, but I suppose monitors and a sub could work well, too. I did not have su... | |
| speakers for a small room I'm sure you could fit 3 or 4 systems in there, but I would only have 1. I would think you could take the sum of the money from 2 systems and make 1 system that is better than either system for all your listening needs. IOW, take the funds necessa... | |
| Is upgrading worth it? "Does anyone else feel this way?"I don't. What are the upgrades you're referring to? | |
| Upgrade strategy -- midfi to higher-fi What are your goals? Since you mention pre/pro I assume it's for HT also?Room size, listening, % Movies and % music, etc. Some details might help. | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Wow, I was just here yesterday and there has been a lot posted since.I agree these are excellent speakers, especially for the money. Tilt - I put a thin nut on the front spikes so that the spikes could not be screwed in all the way. The back spike... | |
| CDP Help -- Apollo vs Apollo-R vs Saturn I own the Apollo and think it's a great player. The $450 price tag is a very good price, hard to find another at that price today.Having said that, I'd say that #3 is better than #2 is better than #1. Is the price difference worth it to you? Only ... | |
| Tube amp beginner Ahhh, so THAT's a Matador!signed,Another Old F**t | |
| Seeking floorstander for low watt SET Looks like you have a good list going. Of the ones you have listed I have owned Tekton, Zu Omen and Klipschorns. You can see my system page to see the ones I've kept. I have also heard Sonist at a show and really liked them, so you might want to c... | |
| Tube amp decision - Thoughts I'll give my thoughts and then look for input from members with more experience than I have with EL34 and EL84. I believe the amps you mention are all EL34-based. I recently got a Manley Stingray that uses EL84s. I love it in my system more than E... |
