SDA NAD and Carver

I need to part ways with some of my gear. I hate to do so, but I have no current use for any of these. All are in good working order. I currently have no place to use these, so I would like to find them a home where they will be used and appreciated. I am located in Charleston, SC, and would prefer local pick-up since I dont have boxes for them (purchased used locally). I can look into shipping for all but the SDAs using buyers choice of shipper/packager. Buyer will need to pay for shipping.
First up: One Pair of SDA 1Bs. They come complete with the blade/blade interconnect. They are in good working order. According to the previous owner, I am the 3rd owner. The person I bought them from had a problem with one of the tweeters, so he replaced it with the Polk RDO-194 replacement. The other 3 are the original SL-2000s. I never got around to replacing the other 3. The speakers are in good shape. I bought them with some minor damage to the particle board base of the right speaker. You dont notice it. I forgot my camera at home. Tonight I will post pics. Asking $350.
Second up: NAD 2200PE. The reputation of this model amp tells the story. I did have a problem with the right channel losing sound a couple years ago. I took it to a local repair shop, and they fixed the problem. While they had it I had them replace the caps etc that can go bad over time. It is clean with no visible blemishes. I will post pics tonight. Asking $300 due to the overhaul a couple years ago.
Third up: Carver AV-634. This is a cool running 60w x 4 amp. Channels 3 & 4 can be bridged. Each channel has a separte front panel gain control nob for fine tuning. For the bridged 3 & 4 channel there is a front panel nob for crossover use as an amp for a passive sub. I do have the manual for this one, but still no box. Works fine, never had a problem with it. It is clean with no visible blemishes. It is missing the rack mount handles, but I had it in an AV cabinet, so I had no need for them and did not miss them. I will post pics tonight. Asking $175.

Yup you could use it in bridge mode to give each of your L/R 150 watts @ 8 ohms.."....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." William Bruce Cameron, Informal Sociology: A Casual Introduction to Sociological Thinking (1963) -
As I mentioned earlier - here are the pictures:

Both amps can be used for front sound stage (2 channel). If you wanted more than 60w you could use the carver to bi-amp the front 2 channels.
If you are looking for 5 channels, you could use the NAD for L/R, bridge 3/4 on the carver for the center and let the L/R surround run on channel 1 & 2 of the carver. -
bump

If you decide to part out the 1Bs, I'd like to buy some, or all, of the drivers.

Giving these a bump and to clarify that prices are not firm. If you are interested, PM me with an offer.

I am in North Augusta, SC and those 1bs are very interesting. I will check my local audio friends (and my wallet) and let you know if anyone is interested. Also, I bet Charleston was beautiful in the snow on sunday.

last bump. Saturday I will need to start posting on ebay/craigslist or part-out :frown: the SDAs

Still here if you have to go the part-out route.....
