Agreed.  The main sales pitch for local keeps being value. Performance.  The logos.  People by nice things as a reward for working hard.  That emotion adds a different dimension.  This is where an impeccable matched veneer or a magnificently sculpted/machined chassis adds value.  When just...

Sure thing Ron.

Cyanoacrylate = superglue. Check this out.  https://www.builders.co.za/Fasteners-Fixtures-%26-Security/Adhesives/Speciality-Adhesive/Soudal-2part-Professional-Super-Adhesive-Glue-Kit---Transparent-(50ml-200ml)/p/000000000000700850?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIwYG--euN8QIVRbDtCh2y4wD9EAQYASABEgIse_D_BwE

Conveyor belting is glued with cyanoacrylate.  Pretty big surface typically. Just comes in 2 parts.

HFX will do Arcam soon.  Yes. Really.  Arcam are now part of Harman speciality.  But on an older one Nilam is a good bet. Fun fact.  Both Nilam and Ben worked for the original Arcam agent in the 80s.

I think Stereosane phrased things subtly.  The simple answer is no.  What you mention is valid but not his point.  He means straight up hard core discounts to end users.  You can?t be half pregnant in the long term.  You either nurture a dealer network or you don?t. Unless you are maybe...

The varying price, if this happens,  is a sure way to alienate dealers and end users. 

Myth followed too often, myself included: If You Build It, They Will Come In with a chance: If You Market It, They Will Come https://samuelmullen.com/articles/startup-fallacies-if-you-build-it-they-will-come/ Ethos, Pathos & Logos, you will not make it big on logos only but it seems the...

Looks fantastic.  You could probably sell people the panels in kit form?.

It?s not a chain with strengths limited by the weakest link per se.  Chain Analogies, Synergy, Enhancement and Other Lies We have all heard the truism that ?a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.?Certainly this is true of a chain, but it becomes a misleading lie when applied to the...

My experience is that unless you find a low priced nos stash the legacy genuine higher end styli are priced at similar levels as a new AT cart of similar or better performance.  So only worth it with a cheap generic if quality is not an issue or fitment and alignment is not within capability and...

The Marantz I am sure is a fine amplifier.  Not sure I would expect it to do well with an 805 and some of the exotics mentioned.  Harbeth 3 don?t have any bass bloat  to make them seem to sound bigger than they really are which will suit the small room and seating near back wall imo.  Their...

A small harbeth is a good choice and unlike many high end bookshelves from others it needs a good amplifier.  Not a crazy one.  If your friend is available n Jhb and wants to try some let me know. 

Now playing this on Peachtree and Maggie LRS.  Added to favourites.  It?s a stonking good recording too. 

Beyer Impacto portable dac amp intended for Beyer modified with Cardas connectors for Sennie HD600.  This is a great find.  If you like Katche and Stanko type stuff with a hint of Garbarek.  https://open.qobuz.com/track/119372578

Not enough balls for Hifiman (not much portable stuff has imo) but this sounding excellent. 

Very valuable.
