Has anyone compared these to Acme Audio outlets? If so, how do they compare?
New batch of Albert Porter's cryo treated Hubbells
I have been talking to Albert Porter about geting another batch of the cryo treated Hubbells. He would need 50 of the outlets to do the run. Therefore, we'll need commitments from people who want cyroed outlets, so we total a minimum of the 50 he needs. The outlets should be around the same price as before ($35-$36). The money would have to be paid in advance, as before, and a cut off date set. I currently have four outlets and would like at least four more for myself. I do know Albert has had other interest in the, but I don't know how many. So let's hear from anybody interested in the outlets and how many you're interested in. These are an excellent investment. It was a significant upgrade to my system. Thanks.

At noon today, I responded to email messages that showed interest in being part of this group purchase. If you did not receive my email and want any of the outlets please respond to me by email. The price is the same as before, $36.00 plus shipping. If enough don't participate, I will be forced to return payments. The first run was sparked by the topic "Albertporter only needs 50."

I just wanted to post an Update. We have not had any cofirmed sales yet. We do have several verbal committments but nothing final, since Albert needs the money up front. We need at least 50 to do this. Come on people, these are AWESOME outlets; let's get the 50 and DO this!! Albert is doing this for us, as he does not need any more outlets. We need to take advantage of this. This quality outlet with the cryo treatment would cost a lot more than $36 anywhere else. I've experimented with numerous outlets and this by far is the best value. Come on, let's get together and get 50 (I'm getting 4 so we just need 46 more!). Let's get them. Thanks Brian |
Docjr8156, I sent you instructions via Audiogon email system. Thanks to you and everyone supporting this group purchase. Audiogon has been very accommodating in allowing this open forum and discount purchase. What does everyone think about our purchasing a few extra cryo treated outlets for their systems? Certainly they have done as much work as I have in keeping this thing alive. |
I received Znak_m's email for four outlets. When payment arrives we will be confirmed for 38 cryo treated units. Interested parties should respond soon. I have not cashed any of the checks or money orders. If this fails to meet minimum order needed, I will return 100% all payments via first class mail at my expense. |
I received payment from three additional members today bringing the total to 42 Hubbell outlets. Anyone wishing to participate should act before we reach the 50 required pieces. I will NOT be able to add to this order once it is closed out. This is special order from Hubbell, requiring a week minimum to fill. |
Today, Saturday the 12th, we arrived at 50 pieces spoken and paid for. There are a couple of checks confirmed and already in the mail, so I will wait through next week for those to arrive. Anyone wishing to participate must notify me immediately. I am ending this and following through for those who have committed. |
