Need a heavy duty receptacle
Oyaide R1 Beryllium receptacles have a death grip. I have to pull hard to get my various power cords out of the one I have. 
So Many Apogees for sale, and so few takers
Nismo,That is absolutely not true!!! All is much too broad of a generalization! I have Mini Grands that look and sound great. Original owner and handled with TLC and high quality amplification. They have many years left in them before they need an...

New to Audiogon since April 2010 isn't new. And the initial post was not as much a question as a statement that was not true. I would be more tolerant of an innocent question compared to an inaccurate statement. There is already too much misinform...
