Buying refurbished gear....
 Ive done 2 transactions recently with A4L and they were both excellent. Bought a receiver for my son and a center channel speaker. If there wasn't a refurb sticker on the box I would never have known. Both items were indistinguishable  from new.

Audiphile Press: Am I jaded, experienced, or has it declined?
Still get Stereophile, but the thrill is gone. Too much space devoted to gear I have no interest in, ( streaming, dacs, TT and carts. that cost more than my truck.....) The music reviews are given short shrift, as well as the letters to the editor...
