    Ok... I will spill the beans. I am bidding on three pairs of Wilson Watt Puppys, a stack of Krell SACD Standards and a bunch of Krell Evolution gear. There are also a couple of 65" Sony 4K tvs in the mix.

    The Evo gear is new in box. I will know around 6pm today if I won. From this auction, I will be selling some stuff to cover the money spent, and offer up a KARMA. The Evo gear will likely find a place in my rack, possibly replacing my Pioneer D9 and my Pass Labs gear.

    Auctions make my heart RACE and POUND. I'm one who could be one who , if I had the money, would bid too much JUST to win the thing or things. It almost happened once but I set a limit and was outbid by one bid more. I hope you win your auction !!
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    I am in on a total of 8 lots, all at roughly half of what things resell for on Audiogon. My hope is that most people just won't care to hang out after all the artwork is gone. The estate is that of a woman who was an heiress to the Keck fortune. The family has telescopes in Hawaii and medical centers named after them.
