Hello stereophile commuters,

This is my first post on here and I'd just like to first say Hello to everyone here. Well, my question is concerning this stereo system I saw not too long ago at a party. This stereo was literally in the form of a pyramid, or at least in the form of a triangle. The front casing was transparant, so you can see the cd spinning from within. It kind of looked like it was Phillips in origin, but I cannot be exactly sure. Has anyone seen one of these stereos? I would really like to know where I can purchase one. Thanks,

Ellis

Hello everyone,

My dad was a hardcore stereophile and had all kinds of equipment. I have no use for them anymore and want to sell them. I know they're still worth a lot, but don't know how to price them. Can anyone please advise? Here's some of the equipment:

Audio Research SP-10 pre-amplifier with power source
Audio Research D-90 power amplifier
Electron Kinetics Model Eagle 7A dual mono power amplifier
Perrauex dual channel class A pre-amplifier (model SM2)
Sony Digital Audio Recorder (PCM 2500A&B)
Acoustat 8' speakers
Magnapan ribbon speakers

Purchasing loudspeakers over the internet...a wise idea?

I've been reading about these speakers and was wondering if any fellow forum readers have ever bought them. Reviews, of course, were always positive...to varying degrees...and personal posts at various forums were more honest.
Bob Reina reviewed some Aperion 533-T's, http://stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/407ape

I found the 61S at Blue Jean Cables. Does anyone know if there is a difference between these and the recommended Gold Canare RCAPOO3F?

It is my belief that the use of blind testing to assess audible differences in audio components is a flawed process because human hearing is an adaptive system.

I was hoping to get opinions on Dynaudio's latest special edition speaker. Considering the reception of the Special 25, I thought there might be some interest in this follow-up. Anyone seen/heard it at any shows? Have any been sent to dealers/reviewers?
