Hey all,
I'm in on a fleabay auction for a Sunfire TGA-5400.
What's the current going rate on them?
Should I even be looking at this amp?
I've also been looking for a B&K or other older Sunfire amp; I've concentrating on the signature series - I've read they tend to be worth the extra cost compared to the standard series cinemas.
Will be installed in an enclosed cabinet.
Room is 18 x 20 with hardwood floors, open wall on one side, several area rugs.
Speakers: I'm running an RT5000 system right now.
Preamp/Processor: I have been using a B&K Reference 50 to this point, but I just received a Sunfire TGP V, which I've not yet installed.
Listening will be 80/20 music/HT.
What do you think?

Other suggestions then?
I was leaning towards a Sunfire because I have heard they run particularly cool. -
Sunfires run very cool.Marantz AV-7705 PrePro, Classé 5 channel 200wpc Amp, Oppo 103 BluRay, Rotel RCD-1072 CDP, Sony XBR-49X800E TV, Polk S60 Main Speakers, Polk ES30 Center Channel, Polk S15 Surround Speakers SVS SB12-NSD x2

Wow
I did a google search and found the Quad II Classic; I love the looks of it
That's a budget-buster -

I hate it when people list something then cancel the auction because the early bids don't meet their expectations.
It was no reserve for goodness sake, now it's a new listing with a $1,600 opening bid.
