| Was my friend given misinformation. @russ69 I have a friend who asks my advice and then asks all our friends for advice, then doesn't listen to any of it. I know the type! | |
| Ridiculous sale Supply and demand. I see items that I sold a couple of years ago for $2,000-$2,500 go for $3,500-$4,500... Everything sells as long as someone is ready to pay. | |
| What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest? McIntosh XRT-28 that I currently and most likely will own forever: 6'5", 125lb | |
| Buyer Beware Too many scammers out there. I keep notifying Audiogon when I see one and they act fast to remove them. I've been told by Audiogon that they're working on improving the security of selling on the site. | |
| Best double live vinyl? @dayglow True, but the performances are great. Time for a remaster maybe? | |
| Best double live vinyl? Queen - Live Killers | |
| Most beautiful turntable under $5k Another vote for Technics SL-1200G. The etched logo on the 10mm solid aluminum top does it for me every time. | |

| How much gear do you own? 4 operating systems in a two bedroom townhouse (living room, bedroom, office and dining room) plus some bits and pieces I've collected over the years that are not all hooked up. I'm saving for a bigger house next. | |
| One big reason why brick and mortar high end audio dealers struggle. I have to comment about a local dealer in the Phoenix metro area. With two locations in Tempe and Scottsdale, I’ve been to both a few times and I’ve always been treated kindly and professionaly. I’ve bought from one location before, but when visit... | |

| Why the hate for mcintosh amps? People love to hate everything these days.That's why. For me - sound quality + appearance + value = McIntosh. I started my McIntosh journey about a decade ago and I haven't looked back. | |
| How important is the pre-amp? After trying numerous preamps in my system (solid state, tubes, fully balanced, newer, older...) I realized how important a preamp is and how much difference it can make your system sound.I ended up buying a McIntosh C2300 and it's going to stay h... |
