Your single most significant purchase mistake?

My biggest mistake was not anticipating how much fun this hobby would be and so started out not spending what I could have and therefore continually upgrading. For example, I went from a Rega P6, then an 8, then a 10, and then scrapping the brand altogether and bought a Bergmann table.  Same with the phonostage- went through 3 before getting what I ultimately have kept.  Same with my preamp/amp - started with an integrated and went to separates pretty quickly after that.  Each time losing some money all the way and let me tel you it adds up!!!!

Biggest mistake was dealing with Mike Powell   Bought a pair of AGD Tempo GAN amps and just didn’t work out in my system. Sent them back within 3 weeks of the 30 day trial and he said he spent my money. He pieced me back the 9k over a 10 week period while calling me names, and dogging my system. 
The dude is just the worse dealer by far I have ever dealt with….stay away

benzman,

Wow, what a nightmare. AGD should take away his dealership.

They did. Alberto told me they took it away because of Powell’s lack of customer service. 
 

That's good to hear.
