    The jumpers rarely come up for sale , I mean like never. I've only saw 2 in the last 5 years come up for sale. I think AZ charged around 150 new for them.

    Dhart,

    If you want to buy the jumpers, cool. What I can do, if your interested, is send along the speaker cables also if you want to try them before you buy them. Only cost to you would be shipping back to me in the event you didn't want to buy them. That's the TONYB try it before you buy it program.

    As a disclosure though, others who took that program and didn't buy the item, haven't been seen since so I dunno... :)

    Tony, I previously posted interest in buying the Acoustic Zen Satori jumpers. Are you only interested in selling as a pkg deal or you just don't want to sell to me? :):)

    Sorry about that man, I must have just overlooked it. It's hard to keep it straight between responses here and the PM's.

    Sure I'd sell them to you, unless you have cooties or somethin'. :) I was hoping some interest in the speaker cables surfaced as the jumpers are the perfect match. If ya want the jumpers, no problem, but I have a feeling after you use the jumpers, your gonna want the other cables. I originally bought just the jumpers, and used them with my Strailey Cables, like them so much I bought the Satori speaker cables then the IC's. Huge improvement.

    PM your info, and lets call it 5 bucks to ship.

    Tony I do have cooties but for the sake of the sale, I'll keep them over here. lol I wanted the Satori jumpers b/c I already possess the Satori speaker cables. Funny thing is I bought the Satori's b/c you recommended to me in one of my posts a couple years ago that the Satori's might work better in my rig than the MIT's that I had. You were right!

    I need the jumpers because I just purchased some pre-owned bi-wire able speakers but the jumpers are missing and my cables are single wire. I will send a pm
    thx

    Gotcha man, Pm'd back atcha.

    Good to hear on the Satori's bro. Btw...the Matrix IC's are also a perfect compliment to those cables. I also found that the Wireworld Eclipse 7 IC's also compliment them well. Just an FYI from the cheap seats.

    Had some Bogdens myself a few years back, possibly not the current top series caliber. Just OK to my ears, didn't really check the boxes for me.

    If I decide to sell the AP's, I'll shoot ya a PM and give you first crack.

    Marv,

    Since your on the IC merry go round, if you like I can send you the AZ's to see if you like them. Just cost ya shipping back to me.

    The only thing I want you to consider, is that the RCA ends on these IC's are fairly big. They don't work well with gear that has very close RCA in/outputs like on the back of a receiver. Probably better suited for pre amps to amps, dacs to pre's.

    1000000% agree on this. They are large and need room. I can attest they do sound wonderful.

    Folks, anything you buy from Tony will be as stated. Great seller and person in general. Buy with confidence.

    Victor has expressed interest in test driving the speaker cables.

    DYN's, amp, pre....open to trades, cash up or down, doesn't hurt to ask.

    The other Sonos is off the market for right now.

    Any other issues you have heard from the problematic B&K besides one side running hotter? I am pondering buying it then sending it in for a DC offset check if that seems the only symptom.

    The DC offset being off on one side makes it sound a tinge brighter in that channel. Now, to be fair, I'm assuming it's the DC offset that's off and making one side run hotter. It could be a cap or resistor in there also. I haven't popped the top to look around. This would be a good buy for someone who could possibly work on it themselves.

    Hmm I have a tendency to mess things up when I open electronics. Even for a bill and shipping it might be worth it to me to have someone dive in it. Like you said could be a simple DC Offset adjustment or a cap/resistor aging causing the problem to progress.

    Let me sit on it barring no one else with the skills snatches it up so don't put me in line.

    Thanks Tony!

    I thought the Joule was one of the firsts to go, that is a STEAL of a price. If not and the others who chimed in before me don't go for it, I will.

    Received the DAC and Sonos today in pristine condish. Appreciate the cushy white glove packing, speedy ship, and excellent comm.

    The Sonos goes to the beach, so I left it packed up and will listen to it as soon as we get a free, sunny weekend. I hooked up the DAC in an easily accessible rig and loved what I heard. Smooth detail with a touch of pleasing warmth. Really impressive sound, especially for the money. Looking forward to trying it out in a few different spots. Couldn't be happier!

    Many thanks to @tonyb for the opportunity and excellent transaction.

    Thanks for the nice words Craig. You will see why I coveted that Dac for so long. Cary made the Xciter as a desk top solution, but really it has a place in any main rig. Heavy booger for it's size too isn't it.

    Thanks man, appreciate the smooth transaction.
