| VPI HW 16,5 vs. Okki Nokki I agree, VPI makes some great equipment. However, its current machines are old technology. Ultra sonic is the newer technology and does a much better job of cleaning. So while currently ultra is more expensive, it is the future. No special fluids ... | |
| Selling dispute. Please comment. It should be clear to all that the land of 'audiophiles' is heavily populated by very picky, finicky and over bearing humans, it comes with the hobby. So, buy and sell accordingly. Oh, the buyer is in the right, so ask him to return the units. Pay... | |
| Recent equipment you hated, thought overpriced Audiooracle, sucker you are. Rolex? Not a time piece, but a piece of jewelry, eye candy.

| Oppo 95 vs Sony 5400/9000/777 who owned both? Yes, the Oppo95 is better then the 5400, and 777. I purchased the 95 and found it sounded better then the 5400, which I sold off. I kept the 777 as it sounded better then the 5400. Made a few bucks in doing so. If you have a 5400 it is easy to try... | |
