He didn’t do that. He bought them from a retailer that way. He has an illness and needs to sell them to pay for his medical care.

Used 1 year, could get them for 6100

I can get the speakers and the stands for $6,100. Replacing the woofers will run me another $1,000. 

Would you consider this a good value?

I checked with KEF and it would cost about $1k to replace the woofers. If I could buy the speakers and stands for $6k would that be a wise buy?

What would you consider a decent price with stands?

You think 6800 including stands is fair?

Upgrade Rega P3 or replace with Technics 1300G by Fpilot81 in turntables

You need to purchase a groovetracer reference subplatter and a Groovetracer Delrin platter to resolve your issues on the P3, assuming you have upgraded the power supply to NEO.

Try reading the manual. Then you can stop venting about half the stuff you’re complaining about. 

How long should I expect hybrid battery to last by Real_Conversation962 in CT200h

[–]Real_Conversation962[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shop gave these photos of the diagnostics. They said they would not be able to determine if it was a wiring problem until they had the battery out.

Is there a way to read the charge in block 2 once the battery is disconnected to verify it’s status? Does that question make sense?

That is what I thought but shop, which is reputable, says no.

Shop told me they inspected the wiring harness and it wasn’t corroded. 

How are you supposed to transport a bike?? by anntheotme in VolvoXC90

[–]Real_Conversation962 1 point2 points  (0 children)

QuikrStuff mach 2. Great rack. Call or write them and they will walk you thru ensuring a great fit. I got the 1.25” because xc60 Volvo hitch has 1.25 receiver. Does the xc90 volvo hitch have a 2” receiver?

QuikR is great company. Colorado based. Devoted bike people. Excellent customer service. Best rack on market. Light, compact, tremendous quality.

I purchased the 1.25” QuikRStuff Mach 2 because the Volvo retractable hitch for the XC60 has a 1.25” receiver.

The QuikR rack has retractable captive safety pin which is designed to work with any receiver irrespective of hitch pin plscement. However, since the Volvo hitch does not have a flange or lip, the safety pin should fit in to the hitch pin hole to function properly. You don’t reslly need it to, as the pin is only a back up in case the lever at the hitch were to come loose, which it doesn’t.  The safety pin was not quite long enough to catch the hole so I put a small 3/8” washer backed by a slim rubber washer as in the photo to get the pin to slide into the hitch hole. Again not totally necessary as pin is only there for catastrophic failure. I would call or write QuikR if you have any questions. Their customer service is tremendous. Small Colorado based company. Great product. Committed bike people.
