Re Revel Performa3 Series EOL sale, here is a Jan 24 update from dealer Rex Anderson on the Revel owner's thread at AVSForum. @Kal Rubinson mentioned upthread the sale begins Feb 1.

"It has been confirmed there will be a replacement line for the Performa3 series, but they are likely over a year away. In the meantime you can get great sale pricing on the Performa3s - these prices will hold steady until they’re gone! There really aren't many of any of these models left and some won't be coming until later this year. If you want something, I can get information on the status. Email me for details.

  • F208 Tower Speaker in Black and Walnut - List $2750 each, SALE PRICE $1925 each

I am happy to see a posting report there will be replacement for the Performa3 series. I do not understand why Samsung/Harman/Revel is choosing to cede the market to the competitors until then.

There may be a mistake or something but the price is about half of what it supposed to be.

Friend of mine just texted me this, big 9.2 do everything Onkyo receiver for "$600.00 off" a la Crutchfield til Jan 31st, total $699.00:

Did a search for the model and it showed up discounted around page 207 (I think) of this thread, this is a deeper price cut than that. Fair warning the few Onkyo products in the review database here are all Not Recommend or N/A. :x

The Pioneer Elite 505 for $650 @ Andorama is a much better deal
The Onkyo TX-NR7100 and its PIoneer 'sibling' the VSX-LX305' each lack the multichannel preamplifier output jacks available on the Pioneer VSX-LX505. In addition to the $650 price for the Pioneer VSX-LX505, it appears Slick Deals and Adorama have teamed up to offer the Pioneer VSX-LX305 for $529

Extra 15% off The Audio Factory (NAD/PSB/Dali/Bluesound) with "WINTER15" code.
That’s really nice, thanks for the post. Those products are refurbished, for those who do check it out.

They have a one year warranty for anyone on the fence. Depending on if you buy with certain credit cards, you can usually get another year or two of warranty coverage. I bought a pair of PSB P5s for F/R in my new 3.0 apartment HT setup (along with a C10 I also got from TAF). I know they aren't well reviewed here, but they meet my needs (size, performance, price) and I've never been steered wrong by a PSB offering. At $250 a pair for dedicated HT fronts, risk is supremely low of being disappointed.

Here's some good ones this week. None of the eBay listings are mine. Also Hifi-College really honors their warranty. If it's Aoshida-US and they ship it, I've never had a problem. If Amazon ships it and it's used, they just tell you to send it back and don't replace it. SMSL store stuff always works with no problem also. On Ebay it's the usual, check seller feedback and make sure it's not a brand new account with a price that's too good to be true. Starting with the Topping stuff since I'm currently listening to an original A90/D90 stack, still the best thing I've heard. I buy about $5,000 a month in audio equipment, but not enough time and space for everything. Here's stuff at the prices I usually pay:

Topping A90 Headphone Amplifier (black) $299 free shipping

Topping A90 Discrete $450 Used Good 1 year warranty

Topping PRE90 Preamplifier $420 used - good 1 yr warranty

Topping D90LE $600 used good 1 yr warranty

SMSL C200 Amp/DAC used (but from the SMSL Store) $125

SMSL DL200 $145 used (from SMSL store) cheapest 5 volt DAC on the market

SMSL M500 MKII $243 used like new condition

TOPPING DX3Pro+ Used very good $115

Topping E70 Velvet AK4499EX DAC $380 used like new (Hifi College so 1 year warranty)

Topping G5 Portable NFCA Headphone Amplifier DAC $220 used very good, 1 yr warranty

SMSL DO200 MKII MQA DAC $259 Used very good

Gustard A26 MQA DAC 2xAK4499EX $1124 Good condition

Looks like the same promo code will get you the A6A for $1400, which is $1,050 off msrp.
