#102 is up! No seller feedback though.

 

He lives near me. I'm gonna try to check it out in person.

 

Ohhh...when you get done with it Ice-man, sell it to me please HaHa

 

HD800S + HDVD800 for $2500 CAD (probably some wiggle room there as well, ads have been up for a while). Good deal if you want to take a plunge towards the deep end straight away. Get a decent DAC later, HDVD800 has a fantastic amp (for HD800S) but the DAC is more of an afterthought.

Rednet3 for $779

Is the price on HD650 decent for Canada? It's really hard to gauge the prices here. HD6XX would have been ~$300 CAD from Massdrop and I feel like the used price shouldn't be more than that, but maybe that's just wishful thinking.

 

$250-300 CAD is usually about as good as the deals get here, in my experience.

 

I'd wager $300 is more the norm up here, and 350 from a dealer with warranty is good. New prices for Sennheisers in Canada are awful.

 

You are welcome to come and listen. It's coming back to me probably by next week.

Unmodded HE-6 850 USD worldwide shipping. Posted a couple of hours ago, highly doubt these will last:

Here's a Bifrost, Lyr, K701 combo deal on eBay. Someone could grab it and offload the Lyr and K701 while keeping the Bifrost to upgrade cheaply.

Also, here's an Emotiva DC-1 that's only at $299 so far with a day left.

 

<Canadian screaming at ebay.com intensifies>

(the joke being that I'd rather drag my balls through a mile of lego than buy anything more than $200 from ebay.com again, and this is a fairly normative experience as a Canadian online shopper)

blumenstein orcas, not sure what these cost new but he's including shipping in his asking price. they look beautiful. if i could use a second set of speakers, i'd prob buy them myself and not post it here

 

Oh man, I got excited for a second when I misread his location as Hosers instead of Hoosiers. They don't show up on this side of the border very often.

 

Looks like they're $875 new.

 

Oh shit they're local... I could put these on my computer desk? Or even use them as a 2-channel solution for TV and Vinyl conceivably?

 

Yes, you'll want some stands if you use them on a desk. They're amazing in a 2-channel system, they're my main speakers. They're not self powered though so you will need an amp, I know a lot of people expect self-powered speakers for desk use.

 

Right, thanks. I have my old HE-6 integrated amp right at my desk already so it would be easy to replace the LSR305's. Could put them there or use them off the TV in the family room and move the vinyl rig there... Probably won't grab them but if they're around for a while maybe I'll cave
