for your generous support! --
I was not so concerned that he was in South Africa (I am from the States)... (actually I was -- then)... I read all of his positive feedback ;-) He truly deserves the positive feedback.
I bought a pair of rare headphones from Carmel. Where do I start?
He contacted me because he saw my WTB ad and was courteous, patience and altogether friendly.
He upgraded the shipping service to ensure I would receive the package quickly and it was insured.
He explained how package tracking would work so I was at ease.
I sold Carmel a Gilmore Lite LE via his brother who happens to be local to me. Carmel is an absolute gentleman to communicate with and the transaction has been smooth too. I'm looking forward to our next transaction, whether as a seller or as a buyer.
Enjoy the amp! Enjoy the music!

I had the fortunate pleasure of meeting Xenithon for the purchase of my first "high end" headphones. The headphones were in pristine condition and packaged with care in their original form.
All throughout our forum communication, he was extremely friendly, patient and generous with his time and his audio knowledge in answering my questions. A true "audiophile-anthropist" who showed interest in helping me on my way to discovering the world of high quality audio.
Its not often I get to meet people who are so genuinely friendly, helpful and generous.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Xenithon to fellow head-fiers and would gladly do business with him again.
Xenithon sold me a Equinox cable for the HD650. He quickly responded to all of my questions and promptly shipped the product. It was a pleasure to deal with and would recommend him without reservations.

I bought a Gilmore Lite Limited Edition with DPS (#9) from Xenithon. Communication was excellent at all times and delivery was on a saturday morning as promised, he even phoned on the friday before to say it had been posted. The Amp & DPS was well packaged and arrived in excellent condition.
Outstanding service all round and I would not hesitate to do business with him again.
Thanks Carmel!!

Carmel purchased a Headamp GS-1 from me.
Communication was excellent, with even an intercontinental phonecall to wish me a happy birthday in the middle of the transaction.
A few days later, some tasty treats arrived from my homeland courtesy of Carmel!!
Payment was swift, dealings were always friendly and you couldn't wish to find a better trading partner.
Excellent stuff, thanks Carmel. The Berry Jelly Tots went down a treat! :-)
I've bought the Oracle Cable to compliment my HD650 from Carmel. He's one of the promising head-fier to deal with. He gave me a great advice and did according to his commitment.
Cheers,
jim

I had the greatest pleasure of completing yet another transaction with Xenithon, this time a pristine Woo6 amp with full upgrades and valves.
I cant do justice to how great a guy Xenithon is or express my gratitude for his patient advice en route to being "Wooed".
I would recommend him to all head-fiers and would kindly ask folks to make an exception to their "CONUS only" sale rule in his case, because its members like him that makes this forum great.
