I'm having to ditch my external amp and am going to step up to the larger SC model, and therefore have this for sale.

The receiver functions flawlessly, but is not perfect cosmetically and has been priced accordingly. There is a place on the front bottom left corner where a small piece of plastic has broken off, and there is a dent near the back on that same left (your left) side.

These blemishes are not huge, but they're not of the 'you have to be an inch away to see' variety either. Sitting in my audio rack it looks fine and we're pretty picky about the living room furniture.

I will take some pictures later when my camera battery is charged.

I bought this as an open box at best buy sometime late last year, it's in exactly the same condition asnit was when I bought it. Was nervous about buying it with the damage so I bought the extended warranty through them, will find the receipt later to see the length, but it's going to be at least two years.

The receiver comes with the remote, but no box or manuals or anything. So you get the receiver, remote, and extended warranty, all for $300. It would be great if I could sell locally since no box, but will ship if someone wants it.

    I've uploaded photos, see link below to photo album. This really is ALOT of receiver for $300.

    I'll leave this up here until tomorrow then will have to move along elsewhere.

    Yep, 4 in, 1 out, and it also has preouts and also has multi-channel inputs (the newer vsx models no longer have these). Don't let the price fool you, this is not in the $300 receiver league, it's got a nice high end sound to it.

    As for shipping, I would guess no more than $40. I shipped something to amulford up on the other side of the country for $50 that was about this same size, and you're alot closer so I bet it would be cheaper.

    If you're interested PM me and we can work out the details.

    I figured this would go fast. I have Installed this receiver more then any other Elite in this model year. It goes so well with so many different speakers and sounds like a 1000+ class receiver. Love it.

    Agreed. I just purchased one to go with my LSi7's and it sounds fantastic!
