Re: Hifi bargains

I regularly check those shops, together with Audiograffiti, Garosi, hifinatali (terrible website) and few other ones. When I was living in Milan I bought from Spinelli a pair of new Xavian Primissima at 50% discount because they were out of production. I never bought anything from hifi2erre, but the...
