"Chris Moon is an honest, forthright seller of used high-end audio equipment. I have known Chris for over ten years and he has always been above board, knowledgeable, and a very good communicator. I would surely recommend him to anyone looking to sell very high-end audio components on a world-wide stage. I'm not sure there is anyone in the business today that's sold more gear in the uber-end of the market. What else can I say? Highly recommended!"

“It was a great experience to buy my Magico Q7 MKII (retail $230,000) from Chris Moon at HigherFi. Very professional, friendly and helpful. The speakers were delivered via air freight and arrived in one piece. Overall a wonderful experience buying from Chris at HigherFi and I would highly recommend them.”

I am in Lithuania and I just purchased a pre-owned pair of Wilson Alexandria X2 speakers (retail $160,000) from Chris Moon at HigherFi in the USA and it was just days after Christmas and before the New Year! Christopher made the impossible possible. I sent the full payment in advance by bank wire and he sucessfully shipped the speakers to me here in Lithuania. Instead of his estimated 15 days for delivery they were here in only 7 days despite shipping at the worst time of the year, he handled everything with great expertise. I recommend everyone to the HigherFi company and Christopher Moon personally as a reliable, responsible, honest and highly professional audio equipment dealer. The quality of products sold by him is beyond any doubts, service and customers care are at the highest level, no matter where you are. HigherFi.com is my number one choice now.

HigherFi purchased from us an entire semi-truck packed with excess and surplus electronics inventory. They purchased from us sight unseen with payment in full completely paid in advance. After searching for a reliable and professional electronics inventory clearance specialist we found HigherFi to be a professional and easy to work with company that delivered on their promises and stood out from the rest. We highly recommend HigherFi to any large or small business seeking help with the rapid sale of excess electronics inventory.

Three weeks ago I heard about, for the first time, a company called HigherFi via the Internet. I got in contact with Mr. Christopher Moon from HIGHERFI. and he advised me very well and recommended to me loudspeakers from NTT AUDIOLAB - Model 103 [$150,000 retail], which I hadn`t heard before. Now the speakers stand in my living-room and correspond absolutly to my expectation. The speakers look lovely, the design is perfect and the sound is transparent, but not aggressive and always in harmony with the music. It is the best speaker I have ever heard and I have had a lot of high-end speakers. At last I can say, this advice was the best, the product absolute worldclass and the whole deal with HIGHERFI was really perfect. I can recommend the company HigherFi, and especially Mr. Christopher Moon.

HigherFi helped me to sell my pair of pre-owned Wilson Alexandria X-2 speakers [$135,000 retail]. They professionally handled the sale, found the buyer, collected all of the money and after I shipped the speakers to their customer, promptly paid me in full. I highly recomend Chris Moon and his company as an honest, reliable, first-rate company.

Higherfi helped me sell my AvantGarde Uno hornsystem fast and fair. Every promise was kept along the way without any delays. When I called, the phone was always picked up personally and I was given top treatment throughout the process although my system was at the bottom end of Higherfi's price range of sales. Fast payment with no hidden surprises. I can only recommend: Higherfi.com!

I purchased the YG Acoustics Anat Reference II Professional speaker system [$100,000 retail] on Chris Moon’s sole (and illuminating) recommendation (from here in Italy). I had never before heard the speakers nor did I know the manufacturer. I could not have received a better advice for a truly advanced hi-end component. Chris handled all steps of the purchasing procedure, including shipment and delivery, in the most accurate, professional and honest manner. He was also instrumental in helping me liaise with the manufacturer, from whom I obtained useful follow-up information to operate the speakers for best performance. Everything went smoothly and delivery was quick. I can wholeheartedly recommend HigherFi as a center of excellence for any international purchase (or sale) of the best equipment available.

Chris Moon and HigherFi are to be rated amongst the finest in the country for ease of purchase, knowledge and sincere care before and after the sale. I pre-paid for a pair of Wilson X-1 Grand SLAMM speakers [$80.000 retail], sight unseen from him. The experience could not have been better. Not only did I receive a pair of the world's finest speakers, in great condition and at a reasonable price, but Chris followed the sale from shipment, receipt and set up until every item was consistently and fully in place. Call or write to me and I will be glad to elaborate further.

I first purchased Dali Megaline speakers from Chris and then traded them in for new Von Schweikert VR-10 Mk II speakers [$75,000 retail] all of which I paid for in advance, to another state, to a company I'd never done business with before and had only learned about over the Internet. The result ... an awesome experience that provided me with the ultimate sounding system. They can be trusted. Great support and follow up. I highly recommend HigherFi to anyone seeking the best products, prices AND customer service.

I just wanted to take the time and thank you for all of your efforts selling off of my secondary high end system. I was truly amazed that you sold the entire system [over $31,000] in less than thirty days. The transactions were all clean and payment to me the seller was always right on schedule as committed. I could not envision ever trying to sell hi equipment via another channel. Many thanks Chris for your professional approach to liquidating my equipment.

Please accept my sincerest thanks for your representation in the recent sale of all (yes, all four pairs) of my EBEN loudspeakers [$110,000 retail]. Yours is a model of honest, thorough and wise business practice. But most importantly, you are a true gentleman. I certainly know to whom to turn the next time I or any of my audio colleagues needs to sell high-end audio equipment in a straightforward, worry-free and even enjoyable way. Best regards,

I purchased rare [$70,000 retail] B&W "Nautilus" speakers from Chris. At first, I was a bit hesitant because of the large transaction volume and also was done internationally with an individual whom I have never dealt with. To make a long story short, the entire transaction was very smooth and expedient given the speakers were shipped from another country. I found him easy to deal with, very down to earth, and best of all he is literally 24x7 guy which is great for an international buyer like me. I highly recommend Chris. He's the best international dealer I have dealt with.

Chris:
Many thanks for facilitating my purchase of the Wilson X-1 Series 3's [$80,000 retail]. The speakers were just like new, as you said they would be, and your post-purchase advice about setting them up in my room has been extremely valuable. But, what I would most like your prospective customers to know is that you made a deal happen that neither the seller nor I would have been able to make happen by ourselves ... but you made it happen. Thanks.

I just purchased a pair of pre-owned Wilson WAMM 7 speakers (new retail was $220,000) from Chris at HigherFi and could not be happier ... these are some bad ass speakers!

Chris Moon and HigherFi exceeded my expectations of a high end audio shop in every regard. He was a able to sell a pair of X-1 Grand Slams for us in UNDER one week! His communication, professionalism and integrity were among the very best that we've encountered. Throughout the $40,000 transaction, he was there with packing and shipping advice as well as making sure that the funds were bank wired directly into our account. We will definitely use him to help us sell the higher than hi-end audio in the future.

Dear Chris,
As a first time customer of Higher Fi.com I was slightly reticent about making this type of purchase from overseas and over the 'net. However, I am absolutely delighted with the outcome. Chris maintained excellent communications throughout the transaction and has been extremely responsive and helpful with respect to each query I raised along the way. The Krell 25sc arrived in mint condition with absoultely no transportation problems or delays experienced. Higher Fi will undoubtedly be my first port of call for my next purchase.

HigherFi was instrumental in helping me sell my high end [dCS] digital system. Although I had previously sold equipment on Audiogn, this was a much more personal experience since I felt that I was dealing with a real person and not some cyber-cadet. More importantly, I felt that Christopher really understood the nature of high end transactions which differs significantly from box-in-a-box system sales. I was happy with all aspects of the transaction and the communication which accompanied it.

It is a pleasure doing business with you. I was hesitating when I first dealt with you but all of my concern was gone once the Krell FPB600c was picked up only two days after the wire transfer of funds had gone into your bank account. You have handled this international transcation in a very professional manner and made the shipment of this huge Krell to Hong Kong silky smooth. The Krell FPB600c is in excellent condition and comes with the original packing which prevented any damage to the amplifer during shipment to Hong Kong. I find you to be a trustworthy and honest seller and I would have no hesitation of doing business with you again. Also I would recommend to anyone living in Asian countries to buy from you.

Dear Chris,
I recently purchased the largest Martin Logan speakers from your company. The speakers alone sounded just down right excellent which is mostly a testament to the designers at ML. What made the deal all the better for me was your ability to make the speakers affordable and the extra time you spent providing me with advice on how to maximize my listening experience. This was not included in the great deal that you gave me and is greatly appreciated. Please feel free to have any prospective clients contact me if a customer reference is needed.
