so far so good.

it came with an extra set of cables that we were changing around and i asked him how much new cables would be, he said $92, not knowing for 2 or 4 i asked if it was a whole set, he said no, 1.

there is a transducer in each head which looks like a small lightbulb with three prongs sticking up with mercury in the base, he said these were original and were the better ones but might need replacing, so i asked him how much. he said one thirtyfive. now, i had been up about 36 hrs by this time, so my brain was making slow calculations, and $1.35 didn't sound right, and $13.50 wasn't close to what he said, then $135 came to mind so i asked, and he said yup, $135, that's each.

so i related to him the story of what a set of a arms for the jbl would cost, yup, he got the same look on his face.

i said see that, that's how i felt.
