Anyone have any favorite used audio dealers? I need a low-hours ADAT LX20
for a special project (would rather have an LX rather than XT to avoid
having to re-do cabling, too)..Would rather NOT use Ebay if I can help it.

Given the low resale value of an XT20 ADAT, most dealers who took one
in on trade would probalby post it on eBay rather than trying to sell
it out of their store. It woudn't be worth the storage space.

You might post a "wanted" notice on the bulletin board of your local
music store, tell the audio salesman there that you're looking for
one, and that if someone wants to trade one it, to call you. Also,
if your city has an "arts" free newspaper, check the classifieds in
there.

I dislike eBay, too, but if I needed an ADAT, that's probably where
I'd go, knowing that there will be plenty of them available, the price
will have been pretty well established, and if you buy with a credit
card (even via PayPay) you have some leverage against the seller if
it's DOA or seriously far from the represented condition.
