WHO USES SOUNDPROOF

- Collectors cataloging vintage receivers, tube amps, turntables, and speakers
- Pre-owned buyers verifying make, model, and authenticity before wiring funds on Audiogon, Reverb, or eBay
- Estate appraisers and auction-house clerks doing field-quick IDs
- Working restorers verifying chassis-bottom authenticity before quoting recap or rewind jobs
- Anyone who inherited a vintage hi-fi piece and wants to know what they have

SoundProof is a reference tool, not a marketplace. We don't sell hi-fi gear or broker transactions. The Spot the Fake panel highlights known re-stuff and counterfeit tells but is NOT a substitute for in-person authentication by a qualified specialist on a high-value purchase.
