| Any problems selling equipment outside of USA? I am glad to see shipping around the world is positive. I reside in Canada and have had no problems. I have found some people a little hesitant at first, but after they find out it is really no different than shipping domestically (other than decl... | |

| Experience with Chang Lightspeed Conditioners? I have used one for year. One plus is that it does not use transformers so it does not slow up power amps. no need to use a filtered cord. overkill and could be a detriment. | |
| US/Canada Customs Fees the only fee- carrying it over will be a brokerage fee which is peanuts compared to the cost of the amp. ensure it is made in Canada or US | |
| Best used 2 channel preamp for 2500.00. Try a Copland CTA301 Mkl or Mk2. Will match up against any of the recommended preamps and yet cost a 1/3 of their price. Have yet to hear a better preamp. (and yes I have listened to it and yes it is a preamp. I only say that as you earlier got a ... | |
| Held up in customs No offence to the Americans, but Canadians put up with the same mess when purchasing items from the US. If the seller is aware of the problems and the technicalities, there are no problems. You get the right papers, fill them out and no hassles. I... | |
| Held up in customs There is no duty between Canada or the US if they are manufactured there due to NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement). The only fee the government could charge is sales tax. Canadians pay sales tax on items every time they receive an item fr... | |

| Shure V15--A Good Cartridge? Hi ScottYes, I had sold my Grado the Reference because the Shure held up so well. Best bargain in audio.Hope things are going better than when I last spoke to you. | |
| Shure V15--A Good Cartridge? make that my error in typing. I purchased SD Campbell's Shure cartridge- glad you sold it! My error. | |
| Shure V15--A Good Cartridge? The Shure is the best value in cartridges. they are also one of the oldest mfg's of cartridges out there. They invented the MM and you can see they have not lost a thing. I used to own the Grado The Reference, and it is no better than the Shure. I... | |
| Problems with Svetlana KT88 and Sonic Frontiers I don't have a sonic frontiers amp, but a Copland and the Svetlana's have worked better than any other power tube I have tried including Sovtek KT88, Svetlana 6550C, JJ Tesla KT88, Tung-sol 6550, and a GE6550A. The mids were more pronounced and ve... | |
| Need advise for my current system....... No offence but going with a Krell, McIntosh, Classe, Conrad Johnson (I have owned all of the above) is hardly scrimping. You might also add a Meitner/ Museatex mono block, McCormack, Sim Audio(moon) to the mix. The end result will be the synergy ... | |
| Need advise for my current system....... The McIntosh will be the better fit if you are looking at softer tones. The Krell will be more agressive as will the Odyssey. Read the review in the Absolute Sound regarding the Odyssey. Yes, they said it was good, however it tends to be tipped a ... |
