    Checked feedback on all their previous listings and they've never mentioned not accepting PayPal before, and the tone/vibe of the posts feels different in terms of writing style.

    My guess someone got his login info somehow and is using the account to try and scam

    well, the same guy posted this in May:
    https://www.whatsbestforum.com/thre...s-yes-they-are-better-than-the-sr-009s.34984/
    So contact him at What's Best and see if it's legit. Maybe he got an awesome deal.

    Yeah, apparently the USAM webmaster was spammed with reports for this listing.

    It was sold locally w/ cash between the seller and another USAM member with positive feedback.

    Killer deal.

    Just an aside here, but anyone ditching PayPal when selling their own personal audio crap at a loss on used audio junk forums either doesn't have a very good tax accountant, or lacks a proper understanding of the nature of reporting those transactions above $600 to the IRS.

    uhh crap, I might be one of those people. I don't think many if any were over $600 though. Just lots of PP shtuff. Thank you for the reminder.

    Danley makes good stuff. I have a few pairs of a licensed design he did with Yorkville (a Canadian pro audio company) and they sound great. While you would not want to use these in nearfield, the whole time-aligned-synergy-horn stuff is great and reduces the upclose honk as is typical of PA cabinets which does give them good potential for midsized or larger living rooms.

    Had my little piety and vali 2+ running off the Freya N last night - pretty cool. Might need more time with it, there was a lightning storm last night, but the little time I did have was positive - little more dynamic. The active buffer is nice.

    Decent deal on Moffat filter on hybrid chips. Theta DS Pro Basic II.

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/325543039946

    No balanced outs, but I think the balanced section is there on the board, just needs op amps and connectors.

    This is actually a good deal, if someone is tempted by these—you should RD-4 them! King of orthos, bar none. (Not heard an RD-5 yet, but I still think the RD-4 would probably edge it out just based on the base hp themselves.)
