| Used audio market appears to be collapsing @gano, why not list it here? I have always listed my items for sale here and most times it sold within 5 days. A few things took a couple of weeks. There are always a lot of people looking here. | |
| What do you do when the music’s not speaking to you? @soix, I played trumpet in a Jazz band for years in my early days and it didn’t do anything to help me appreciate music any better. Growing up, there was always music playing in our home, my dad was thrilled when his console stereo got delivered... | |
| Has McIntosh Ever Decreased Prices (on new equipment)? I have bought 6 McIntosh components from Audio Classics, all used and all looked and played like brand new. They are the “go to” for anything McIntosh. I purchased a brand new pair of JBL L100 Classics from them in December 2020. Which were sell... | |
| Integrated that blew you away McIntosh MA6600 integrated amp. As soon as I saw and heard it at Audio Classics, I purchased it. The Parasound HINT integrated I had at the time is like a toy compared to the McIntosh integrated. I play it every single day for hours on end as i... | |

| Should I buy another flat screen now while they are still relatively cheap? We had a 10 year old Samsung flat panel, and we replaced it with a Sony OLED. Side by side, it was shocking. The Sony was bright and crisp, the 10 year old Samsung was much less so. I got mine at 500 off when Best Buy had a sale right after Ne... | |
| Mods to Primaluna Evo400 preamp I would leave it as is. They already use top quality parts and that is the way it is voiced. If you put in different parts, it will not sound the same. | |
| ??? What Is Your Favorite Speaker Finish ??? Rosewood, Cherry or Piano Black. | |
| Selling collection directly in the pacific northwest? You can contact TMR, they buy used equipment. I did a deal with them where i sold an amp to them and bought a more expensive one. I came out way ahead. | |
| Esoteric Audio USA speaker cables AccuPath is the early version of Acrolink cables by Esoteric. | |
| Pre Amp Question. Old or New? @ghdprentice +1 | |
| Pre Amp Question. Old or New? To OP, just be aware that member “Ghdprentice“ is a huge ARC fan so his comments mostly lean towards that brand. I owned version 1 of the Rogue RP5 preamp and found it quite neutral which wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted the rich tube sound which ... | |
| For Those Who Are Unaware of The Cable Company I just received a new Acrolink interconnect from them, brand new. Wait time was 6-7 weeks. The importer of Acrolink is a real sh**head, he sat on my order for weeks but Steve at the Cable Co stayed on him and he finally checked his stock and shi... | |

| Aleph 3 safe to operate? If the amp is brand new, there is no reason to use a variance, just turn it on and enjoy it. Variance really not needed for a brand new item and the amp is not really that old to begin with. |
