Not a lot of products and quite expensive though.

SBAF has some measurements of the Sonnet Morpheus that has the same underlying technology as the Metrum DACs and it is not pretty. I used to have a couple of their products and expected better, oh well.

Can’t find it, but do you know if purchased from Harman is return shipping free or payed by customer?

Hmmm,
it used to state free returns & that was a big draw on the Harman and JBL websites. I have purchase many times and returned very little but the two times I did make returns it was free.
I don't think that has changed but maybe best to call/chat and confirm

Absurdly low prices on Cambridge Audio AV units-- (80% off!)

https://www.audio-connexion.com/CAM751RB-87245.html

I think I got the best deal of Black Friday just now. Rega Planar 1 AND an Epsilon Omega RIAA BT for $525 with no tax and free shipping! I’m in the US btw, don’t know about Canadian pricing.

I got both because I’m really on the fence about getting into vinyl again and at these prices I can try both and probably make a few $$$ flipping!

I tried to order it for a shipping to France, but shipping costed 200$ so I cancelled...

The problem with shipping into Europe would be the taxes. It would add like 20% of the costs ?

As for shipping, I usually use a postal forwarding service for large items I order from the US. There are probably such forwarding services for Europe too. Maybe you can explore that option?

Its quite a bit cheaper than using the typical courier based services that the websites use. A pair of 306P mkII's last year cost me about US$53/- whereas Adorama would have charged me US$180/- if it shipped direct.

Plex Pass
Black Friday Deal to get Lifetime for US$70

Plex Pass costs $4.99 monthly or $39.99 annually, and the lifetime pass usually costs $120. But the lifetime subscription is being discounted to $90 for Black Friday with promo code SURVIVETHESEASON, and there's an easy way to bring that price down even further. Just change the country to Brazil in the payment window, and the price goes down to BRL374, or the equivalent of $70. The promo code is valid until 11:59pm PT on November 27, so make sure you act fast to unlock the savings.

In Canada, the deal turns out to be CDN$91...down from CDN$160 (or 43% savings).

Ahh...deal is expired already. Maybe it will come back on Cyber Monday?
