Was needing a 2 channel for my upcoming 3 way and thought I'd check out Polk's eBay site and all the PA's are half or more off! I just bought a shiny new PA250.2 for $129! Suh-weet!

Downside is I suppose this means the line is nearing its end. Too bad.

But if you need some amps, I'd grab em while you can.

    I quess u got the last 250.2 since it's not listed anymore lol.

    btw when i think of Polk's 2-channel amps i can't convince myself in bying PA250.2 that's readily available just about anywhere over C300.2 that pops up on ebay/forums once in a blue. C300.2 just has so much more guts in it while still being smaller in size. Close to impossible to find it new at this point offcourse....

    I loved the Carbon series amps. By far the best looking amps on the market. If they still made them, I'd run them in a heartbeat. The PA's are still great though. My 500.4 and 1200.1 are very solid and performed great the 3 years I've had them.

    Even if you dont need it, its so damn good looking you can just install it where everybody could see it. You dont actually have to hook it up. :wink:

    Damn, it says delivery wont be til 3/11-3/17. Oh well, guess Ill hold off on my build til we get back from vacation. Thatll be cutting it pretty close though cause I wanted to hit April Fools Fest. Not sure I can get everything hooked up and tuned by then.

    Woohoo! Shipped today. Not too shabby. Bought it at 2:30 Thursday and it ships Friday afternoon. So hopefully it should be here by middle of next week so maybe I can get started on some stuff before heading out on vacation.
