  1. If you have any ability with electronics and soldering, go check out the Bottlehead web-site. They will also build them for you I believe. Amazing value if you're itching to get into S.E.T.'s. And I can't imagine a better speaker to pair with them than the Klipschorn.

  2. I've never seen a "rating" set-up on "Garage Sales" for sales between forum members so I thought I would leave a quick note. Received the Denon very quickly, the unit is in as desribed condition. Rick is a very good seller and very quick to reply to questions. I'm very pleased with the purchase and I wouldn't hesitate to use Rick again!

  3. We met about halfway between us (almost) for the sale. Bill's a great guy and the Scala's were exactly as described. We talked a bit too long I guess, just chatted for about 15-20 minutes. I was pulling away and I noticed a black guy walked up to Bill and was I thought "panhandling" him (asking for money). Didn't think too much of it because of the neighborhod we were in so I kept going. Got a call from Bill 10 minutes later, turns out the guy showed Bill a Glock in his waistband after he asked for bus fare. Bill ignored it and got in his SUV and drove away, I guess the man was hoping to scare him into giving him money. I felt awful cause I picked the McDonalds to meet at and I drove away while my new friend was being threatened! I'm sorry Bill!

    Just goes to show, two white guys standing around in the wrong neighborhood exchanging cash for expensive speakers is not the best scenario for safety.

  4. And remember, asking is just that - asking. Go see them, hear them, and make an offer. I've never met a seller that was willing to turn away a reasonable cash offer. Especially as was noted in another post the item is a high ticket purchase in an area where there aren't a lot of potential buyers.

    If you get him down another $100, even better!
