Is the seller getting money for it? Yes. When the hammer is dropped does the auctioneer often times say 'Sold!"? Yes. Therefore a sale has been made. I rest my case. |

The 'Item' is being "Sold" at Auction. The 'Item' is being "Placed" at Auction. Each is understood to mean the 'Item is : "For Sale" ~ RHF |

Audiophiles avidly debate this one -- maybe read URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_sound Lamont They also fought against lowering the speed of phonograph records from 78.66 RPM to 33.33 RPM. My definition of audiophile is someone who spent so much money on hardware he can't really enjoy the tunes. |

My definition of audiophile is someone who spent so much money on hardware he can't really enjoy the tunes.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - the best sounding stereo I own, cost me $10- it was built in 1965, and is a single ended tube design- dual monoblocks- in an Akai reel to reel, model M8 it sounds better than my modern digital Technics solid state rack system even a "cheap" stereo tube set, sounds better than solid state- tubes color the sound- solid state music has no soul |
