The issue of lowballing... What does that mean?
Hi Mechans,I read the new functionality as offers of 55% below your listing price will automatically be declined. For me I have to get better at the games some buyers will play. I get thin skinned sometimes because I really try to list what I'm se... 
Audiogon Anti-Lowball Offer setting
Hi Rodman9999You got me. I feel real dumb. My math was way off on that 45% part of my comment. From looking at some historical sales I actually follow maplegrovemusic's formula. I'll accept 20% off of list. Sometimes 30% off of my list price depen... 
Audiogon Anti-Lowball Offer setting
To me this lowball offer setting is like eBay’s auto decline offer setting but the only difference is the user can set the tolerance while here it is fixed. Definitely there is room to bargain in any sale but IMO the lowballing has just gotten out...

Sorry if this is a dupe posting to this thread. I'm trying to get this out there as I'm tired of getting hit with lowballers. FYIAudiogon has now defined lowball offers to be 55% off of what you list.I don’t know if you all saw this but I got a...

FYIAudiogon has now defined lowball offers to be 55%.I don’t know if you all saw this but I got an e-mail from A’gon stating they have a new feature in place to hinder insane lowball offers.After you log in go to your Account and select Edit Accou... 
Will a RCA to RCA adapter hurt the sound?
I have used gold plated RCA adapters from Radioshack to join 2 of the same cable to make longer cables and never experienced any sound degradation. How long though are you going to extend the cable? IME with using adapters I've only extended cable... 
Northern Electric Brand audio tubes
My experience with Northern Electric was with their 12AX7 tube. I used it in my Bellari HA540 headphone amp and it was a quiet nice sounding tube. It outperformed an Old Stock GE white label 12AX7 tube from Brent Jessee. Looks wise and quality wis... 
should i go with kt150's now or wait a bit??
Hi TomtabI own a Jolida JD502P amp and I made the jump to the Tung Sol KT150s a couple of years ago and was SO happy I did. Previously I had the Tung Sol KT120 and the sound was meh compared to the KT150s. To me the KT150s in the Jolida give you s... 
Where does a sellers responsibility stop?
This is a hard question for me. I remember I sold a pair of headphones and a year later the buyer is complaining to me that I modified the headphones and screwed stuff up in the process. I told him I did no such modifications and just plugged them...

Use 4 or 8 Ohm output tab for norminal 6 Ohm speaker?
I agree with seikosha's point. I spoke to my experienced repair tech about this and he said the exact same thing. You just have to try both to see which will work for you.My personal experience with 6 Ohm nominal speakers is the 4 ohm tap worked a... 
Elac B5 and B6??? Just another flash in the pan speaker?? or worth it
I agree with JB0194. I bought the ELAC Debut B6 speakers and they are a VERY fun pleasant speaker to listen to. I'm powering mine with a Class D amp but I have a tube front end though. I wouldn't say they bested the Ohm Walsh Micro Short SE speake... 
Speakers for Heavy Metal
How about a restored pair of KEF 104/2s? I have a pair of KEFs and when I've played all sorts of metal they have made me head bang lots. \m/ \m/ 
Power Cables for Class D Amplifiers
Here is an update for my amp situation. I was able to acquire Red Dragon M1000 monoblocks and they sound wonderful when paired with Shunyata Venom 3 power cords which are only 14AWG. For me I found no need to get a 10AWG or thicker power cord on m...
