Small imperfections in paint, lightly used, will trade for a comparable quality common ground amp of same wattage, more suited to my new sdas.

These amps perform flawlessly, sound great and am keeping three for my ht, just need something more suited to my new 2 channel rig.

I could pay extra cash along with monos for very nice gear.

    might end up selling outright, for right now, im gonna wait to see if someone with an amp to spare might like to play with these.

    I will let you know if i do.

    Thanks danz, yeah, these are my first venture into separates, and would not be shifting these two were it not for the common grounding issue.

    I have seen posts showing that.

    Jerryj12 loaned me his after i bought my 2bs from him.

    Not terribly adept, but if it isnt terribly complicated, i would love to start doing this kind of thing.

    have not researched blue book or anything, but that is what it would take probably, plus shipping costs.

    Or of course, if you are in north georgia area, meet for pickup.

    listed price for possible sale, still entertaining offers for some nice gear, the order of response on a possible cash sale will be honored, after the dust settles on gear offers.

    Basically first ask first served, as i would want to be treated.

    thanks everyone

    Common Ground: An amplifier whose channels are all tied to a common ground (common electrical connection). This contrasts with an "isolated ground" amplifier where the ground of both channels is isolated from each other. An example of an isolated ground amplifier is a dual mono design.

    Sincerely, thank you assimilated, for standing up for me in my absence.

    Im not trying to start or promulgate a bidding war, the first person i pmd saying he was first in line, is still first in line.

    Just as i told him he would be.

    The reason this has gone on longer than i thought or would have hoped, is because nhpm510 has some gear that price wise would be way out of the reach of someone in my position, but he has proposed some trades, the other three amps, if he or anyone else is interested,could bring me closer in price to the gear they are offering.

    When i got to thinking about it, my denon 3300 would perform well in our bedroom without external amps, freeing up 3 more of these to offer for trade, without the ht rig suffering at all.

    My hope is to maybe get into some quality separates, or possibly a tuber, although something really nice there is probably out of my range.

    Sorry if it sounded like i was pitting one against the other, was not my intention,and as i said, the first in line to begin with is still first in line now.

    By the way you should see some of this guys gear,the jungson he has is striking, has anybody ever laid ears on one.

    I have no problem with what the OP is doing here. Just trying to see if there are trades possible. His price is quoted($80) and is about what these go for. I had a chance to bid on some on ebay for about the same price but were further away. I am sure he is not trying a bidding war. Can you post pictures to see condition ?

    Because shipping would kill any gain for me, as well as questions about my intentions, im going to cancel this sale, i have pmd dekuda and will soon do so with the only other serious responder.

    I am sorry for any inconvenience to anyone, it was never my intention.

    I should have thought thru the shipping and just listed for local pickup.

    New to doing this, promise to do better if i have anything in the future.

    Moderator, at your convenience do anything you need to do to reflect the cancellation. thanks

    No problem, I have a teenage son that does the same thing when selling on ebay. If you should ever change your mind let me know. I believe shipping to Chicago area from where you are at would not be that bad for me.
