searching for cables, reminded how pathetic Audiogon's search engine is

I can filter by type of cable to a point; interconnect or speaker but no phono sub-category, I can also set price limits, which is nice, but what about the extremely important factors like RCA or XLR and the length? 

I can search amplifiers for solid state or tube... how about critical parameters like max power, channels, balanced or SE? How about a category for DC power supplies? 

and I could go on, but no point since I've brought it up repeatedly over the years.. the moderators agree it is a good idea... and nothing happens.

sad they won't invest a little in programming to make the site really useful .... end of rant... carry on

I have brought up a few things myself and nothing happens....and I always get the reply that they are " working on something else" or " I am the only person to mention this issue ".    I have sent them screenshots after screenshots showing the issues but its still not fixed and this has been going on for 3+ yrs now.

while I agree with some of your search issues, some I dont think would be useful  ex :   critical parameters like max power, channels, balanced or SE? How about a category for DC power supplies?

Riley.. really? if you are searching for an amplifier you aren’t concerned about how much power it has or the number of channels? If you have a balanced stereo preamp and speakers that need at least 100W you wouldn’t want to narrow the search to stereo or monoblock amps that accept balanced connections and put out >= 100W? I think that would be extremely useful


I’ve sold several DC power supplies here.. what category would you put them in?

If you think the search here is bad, try pasting "white American inventors" into Goolag.  

Right. They really did that. 

Now try, "happy white couples".  

Wait. I got better. Go to antifa.com
Now try and find out how many states use Dominion. Go ahead. Try.
When its a fact, it ain't a theory any more.
