    This guy always has lots of stuff. I've heard he's a diehard estate sale buyer that goes to the sale and proclaims to everyone that "all the audio stuff is sold".

    That said, he has a pair of Norman Laboratory Model 10s that I sold to a guy in Northwest Arkansas about 2 years ago. The white stain in picture 3 came from the wall of our garage when I first moved them out of the living room.

    More like a buyer of crap. There are a handful of notable pieces but it's not a long list.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Agreed. Most of it 80's garbage and he's thrashed the Infinity RS4b set when he added the Advent woofers.

    Agreed. The Mission Argonaut loudspeakers are real cool but the Paradigm replacement woofer is questionable depending on the vintage. Well, at least they still survived the ages I guess.

    Saw the "ESS" speakers, but from the pictures, it doesn't look like we're talking Heil transfromers but horns ?


    Got sidetracked googling that "ESS 1200", and came across this (looks like the ESS Heil is still plugging and chugging, for better or worse):

    Sorry for the sidetrack

    He's a nice older gent, I've done biz with him before. Most of the stuff is very ambitiously priced - his 2 car garage is full. I mean you can't walk from one end to the other, it's FULL of gear.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    The Pioneers will sell. There's no shortage of tin-eared worshippers out there. They think that **** is the cat's whiskers.
