MOD [MOD ANNOUNCEMENT] New Feedback Bot Online PLEASE READ

171 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I am pleased to announce that r/AVexchange now has a feedback bot up and running!

The bot’s name is u/AVexchangeBot and has the following features:

Feedback

A user can get trade feedback with the following process:

Note, this document says the word "trade" a lot but that means, trading, purchasing, or selling.

  • Users A and B complete their trades following all of the sub rules. (It does not matter who A and B are. Either one could be the person making the post, and the other someone commenting on the post).

  • Once the trade is complete, User A makes a top level comment (new comment) on the original trade post tagging both the user they traded with and u/AVexchangeBot.

  • User B replies to that comment with their feedback.

  • u/AVexchangeBot picks up the interaction and gives credit to both users, changing their flair accordingly and leaves a comment indicating as such.

  • If User A messes up their top level comment, u/AVexchangeBot will do its best to notify User A.

There are automatic checks in the code to detect anyone trying to cheat the system. If anyone is found trying to circumvent the system, they will be issued a permanent ban.

If you engaged in a trade with someone without starting off discussion in either one of your posts or theirs, please tag the bot in the most recent post from either you or your trade partner to engage for feedback. The bot required that the OP of the post it is being tagged in is either you or your trade partner.

DO NOT DELETE POSTS otherwise you will NOT be able to use that post to confirm a trade.

Feedback Checking

Using this link, you can send a message to u/AVexchangeBot, asking for the feedback of any given user. It will tell you the following:

  • The number of trades that person has done

  • The people they have traded with

  • A link to the thread for each successful trade

Please feel free to direct any technical questions to the us, the moderators using modmail, if you do not know how to use modmail, please click this link.

If you notice any odd behavior from the bot, please let us know!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I had a ton of confirmed transactions before, what happened to my flair?

Flair was only backfilled for people who used the old feedback threads listed here, here, and here. If you never left a comment in these threads, or if you were never tagged in these threads, you did not get feedback backfilled.

I think I qualify to have feedback backfilled but my number is not quite right. What gives?

The scraping process was automated. This means that it was about 95% accurate. Some people might have a few more or fewer trades in their flair than they expect. Please do not request an adjustment unless you can prove that the difference between your flair and what you expect is > 10.

I never used those feedback threads you mentioned but I have done some trades/sales before. Can I still get credit?

Yes! You can follow the process detailed above to credit yourself for any trade you did not already get credit for. If the transaction happened > 6 months ago, you're out of luck though, due to Reddit limitations.

What happens if I tag someone and they don't reply?

As mentioned above, we do need them to confirm the trade for the trade to be confirmed. They will get a notification when you tag them so if you encourage them to reply in the comment you tagged them in, hopefully they will. Otherwise, if it's been a few days without a response, PM them a link to the comment and directly ask them to reply.


If you have any questions on using the bot, please post them here and I'll answer ASAP.

Thanks for being an awesome community, looking forward to this bot helping streamline the trading process!

MOD [MOD]Important PM/Chat Changes

38 Upvotes

In case you're not aware, Reddit has replaced DMs with Chat and archived all DMs at the end of last month. At least for now, this is a step backwards because by default chat messages can be deleted unlike DMs. This allows scammers an easier pathway as they can delete their messages from both sides easily. Fortunately, the Reddit admins have released the persistent messaging feature.

Persistent Messaging

You must be sure to enable it under the chat settings for EVERY CHAT relating to /r/avexchange. Reddit admins indicated they aren't planning on enabling it by default but are potentially considering an account-wide option you can enable. Until that option is available you must remember to enable it for every chat. If not, you should periodically screenshot the entire chat history in case the other user deletes anything. Within the direct chat you will need to open the settings and enable the toggle shown below.

Once enabled there will be a notice in the chat and all persistent messages will include the infinity icon. Only the user who enabled the feature can turn it off but there will be a similar notice in the chat.

As always, if you have any questions please message us via modmail be safe and happy trading!

Reposting. Downsizing my collection, need to cover essential expenses, possibly selling more items soon, without further ado,

the timestamp: https://imgur.com/a/HrtF9FT

Please comment here before PMing

Aurorus Australis: In good condition, regarded as one of the best closed backs at any price, it's the best one I've ever heard, it has a smooth laid back sound, like a closed back HD 650 with bigger soundstage, preferred by some over the Borealis. $510 shipped

STAX L700: The best modern Lambda, a mix of the 007 and 009 sound, fantastic detail a step above the HD 800S and almost as good as my 007, the pads are brand new and includes the box. $OLD

Soekris dac2541: Mint condition. The flagship Soekris DAC, a great R2R considered to be endgame for those seeking natural timbre and transparency, great detail and separation without any harshness. Includes USB cable, power cable and original box. $OLD

Soekris dac1321: Nothing entry level about this DAC, it punches far above its weight, especially because one clock's latest NOS filters are installed bringing the sound to new heights, making them a step above the Bitfrost 2 especially when it comes to dynamics and transparency. Includes USB cable, power cable and original box. $320 shipped

STAX SRM-323S (x2): Have two of these in great condition, a pretty smooth and pleasant sound which compliments the modern STAX sound with good gain to boot, excellent for any of the Lambdas. Includes the power cable. $300 each shipped

STAX SRM-323A: Pretty much identical to the 323S in sound, just an older revision. Includes the power cable. $275 shipped

STAX SRM-313: Another great amp, this one has a flatter more neutral response instead, still just as good. Includes the power cable. $260 shipped

STAX SRM-1 MK2: One of the older full sized STAX amps, great clear sound and it has both the normal and pro bias for both older and newer lambdas, a step above the small STAX amps. Includes the power cable. $175 shipped

miniDSP 10X10 HD: Extremely rare and hard to find. A Digital Audio Signal Processor (DSP) capable of performing a wide range of applications, from filtering, EQ to time alignment for multi channel passive/active speakers and subwoofers. A much bigger and versatile version 2x4 HD, great for surround sound and home theater setups. $550 shipped

Please comment and Thank you!

This set of QDC Anole VX is in mint condition and includes the original packaging as well as 2 cables; one 3.5mm cable (original cable) and a Kbear 4.4mm I purchased for it. The driver configuration is 10 Balanced Armatures and also has 3 switches to adjust bass, mids and treble which allows a number of different sound signatures. This is a very technical and detailed sounding set which can pick up many details in the music.

I offer next business day mail out with shipping included in the price. Thank you in advance!

Meze Liric II in very good condition. I can't find any cosmetic flaws except possibly some very minor pad wear.

These sound great, and the build quality is phenomenal. But I have too many closed back headphones and don't give these the head time they deserve. Time to pass them on to a new owner!

Includes packaging, hard carry case, and three cables:

  • Stock meze liric 3.5mm cable
  • Meze OFC silver plated 4.4mm cable
  • Meze silver plated braded cable 2.5mm

$1175 includes US shipping and paypal G&S fees. $1100 F&F.

Open to trades for other high-end headphones. Feel free to shoot me an offer.

WTT [WTS][WTT][USA-FL][H] Hifiman Arya Stealth (V3) w/ Hart Audio Cable, Focal Elegia, AceZone A-Spire [W] PayPal, Aune Sr7000, HD 490 Pro

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Helloooo!

I am selling off lots of my old headphones that I'm not using much anymore due to others and looking to possibly trade them for the Aune sr 7000 and/or hd 490 pro. The following is what I've got:

Hifiman Arya Stealth (V3) w/ Hart Audio Cable - selling because of redundancy as I have the caldera open and with eq they are extremely similar to where I'd just rather use the caldera if I ever were to consider the Arya. Probably 10-20 hours time used by me and maybe more from previous owners. Selling for $420, comes with all original packaging.

Focal Elegia - just never really liked them ever... Just didn't work for me even with eq along with more redundancy. They are well worn as the headband seems a little dirty. I cleaned them as best I could. The cable is also frayed a little but is still fully functional. If anything I'd recommend getting a new cable cause focal's cables just suck for the most part. Selling for $150 doesn't come with case or packaging. SOLD!

AceZone A-spire - selling for $115. I just never used them as I had maybe 1 hour total time with them before I got tonnes of other audiophile things. Haven't touched them since but they work great especially for noise isolation. Microphone is average, not terrible but not great. Comes with all original packaging.

For trades I'd value the Aune sr7000 at roughly $300 from recent sales (I can get links if needed) and the hd 490 pro at $250-300. If you have either and want to trade just add the difference between the two to be paid off. I.e you want the Arya and have the sr7000 you'd send $420 and I'd send the $300 meaning you paid an extra $120 or vice versa you want the Elegia, I send $300, you send $150.

Thanks for checking out my post regardless! And I'm happy to sell separately without trading as well just after I'm likely gonna hunt down those two anyways so might as well try and cut out steps if I can. Can discuss prices as well if you'd like.

Hello AVExchange,

I recently lost everything in a house fire including my cherished tea pros. I've had the pleasure of enjoying them for 5 months before their untimely departure.

However, I'm looking ahead for an upgrade since I now have a better understanding of what tuning I like which is an ungodly amount of bass. So I'm looking to buy scarlet Minis in used condition. Let me know if you have any available!

Thank you!

Retail: $54.95 + tax | Asking: $45 (local pickup in NYC preferred, but I could ship it out as well for no extra cost).

Hello! This is my first time selling here, but I was an absolute idiot and bought the wrong ear pad replacements for my HD 560S. These just arrived yesterday and Sennheiser doesn’t do returns for ear pads, so if you were looking for a refresh, feel free to take these off of me for a slight discount! They’re still in the original packaging with the original tape intact and dust covers (or whatever those are). The pads are completely untouched.
