Sad to hear that. But even if I knew that I wouldn't reject the deal, $400 is a lot
What I wonder is how does Adorama profit by selling Elegia headphones $500 ? How do they obtain Elegia below $500 ?
Yeah -- came to the same conclusion on their pricing/3rd party warranty considerations. TBH, it's consistently been a winning decision for me....basically you're getting a new unit for less than what a used one goes for on HeadFi/Ebay/etc.
Adorama purchases below...just the ones I recall.
Excellent savings, brand new in box, no issues, take trades (if you prefer not to sell your old gear on Ebay, etc.).
FWIW...my experience over the years has been that headphones/amps/dacs just work, as expected, right-out-of-the-box and last a long time. If they don't work (rarely), it's been right away for me and then I just return them.
