Looking for a used 5 channel amp for my LSi 15's, LSiC, LSi F/x setup.

Must meet the following requirements:

1. less than 18 3/8" wide
2. 300+ watts @ 4 ohms
3. Black (if possible)
4. 12v trigger (if possible)
5. IEC Plug
6. Newer model (under 10 years old if possible, newer the better).

Current budget is 600 or less. If my sub sells that number will move up closer to
851.
If you have something let me know. Would REALLY prefer something within driving distance say 3-4 hours one way from Indianapolis Indiana.

    Yup, saw that one. But shipping a 76lb amp is gonna be pricey. I made contact with a couple folks I know up there, but given shipping right now dont have the full cash.

    Yup, been following it, but its a 19" model which I dont have room for where I want. In addition the amp is a bit as it was likely made in 1997 so its almost 20 years and getting close to a recap

    How do you feel about class D? Here is a Rotel RMB-1565 for $499 shipped. Powerful @ 4 ohms (200 W x 5) but might not be what you are after.

    @tonyb‌

    I snagged the B&K 200.5 that was listed on eBay. Didn't want to jinx it till it was all said and done.

    I got the seller to end the auction early and take 500 in cash for the amp.

    I had a contact 10 mins from the seller so today he scoped it out for me and it checked out.

    He paid the guy 500 in cash, picked it up for me and is going to package it up and ship it to me. Shipping should run 80 bucks give or take, so after shipping I still end up with the amp for under 6 bills to my door.

    As a side note the seller has a set of Niles SI-1230 amps if anyones looking for some 12 x 30 amps for distributed audio lol....

    I've got no use for em myself.

    Nope. Cash came from selling my 2 channel Carver amp. No money from the account.

    Right now thats rule 1. Any purchase must be fully funded.

    Other plans are getting my subs built, my other stuff sold and upgrading my cables (HDMI, power, and getting some IC's for my sub build and a 8VS or 8PR 10 foot speaker cable for my sub).
