Why not more dealers take trade ins? Why should dealers take trade-ins?How many buyers are first-time, and how many upgrading?I bet it's 1:4 or higher. Most of the upgraders will no longer have use for some component or other, and a good percentage of them don't want to hack the usu... | |
want a CD player upgrade I have the Bryston and a previous generation Luxman ("u"). Both are very good--the Bryston is absolutely neutral, the Luxman a tad (just a tad) warmer. I'd recommend that new Luxman or the Marantz Ruby. The Mohican is based on an much older Con... | |
Hand me down audio equip- upgrade advice Try and hear a recent iteration of the Vandersteen 2--a used model should fall in your price range. | |

Hahahahahahahaha WHAT ARE THE ODDS??? Sorry, but there are no harmonicas on that recording. Something's awry. | |
Bookshelf Speakers for Large Room Can you at least raise or eliminate that shelf above the speakers that currently divides the space vertically in two? That would give you a bit more room to maneuver. | |
Primaluna EVO 300 Integrated or Separates? He's also a big fan of LTA, based in Baltimore, not to be confused with LM. | |
Spendor D7 vs. Harbeth Super HL5+ In the D7 vs. Classic 100 comparison (remember: made by the same company), it wasn't just the D7's tweeter that I didn't like, it was the whole upper/mid range that sounded undernourished and constrained and unnatural by comparison to the '100, pl... |
