5 channel amp

PSOVLSK

Just sold my XPA-5 so I need to replace it.

I'm looking to stay around $800 out of pocket, but I'd LOVE to find a much, much cheaper replacement. I'm not necesarily looking to upgrade per se, just wanting to try something different.

Since I've heard that LSi and NAD are a nice combo I'm looking seriously at this: http://home-audio.audioadvisor.com/search?w=Nad+t-955. I thought I'd see if anyone had anything they were looking to part with before pulling the trigger.

Thanks,

Paul

I really wish you hadn't made me aware of the price of that amp...

I saw that Anthem pair and I do have an interest in them.

I should have mentioned in my OP that I don't think I'm interested in Adcom, Rotel, or Carver simply because I own or have owned all of them and I'm really wanting to hear something different.

I may end up placing an order for the NAD before the weekend is over. Seems like a great price and I have no patience...that's a lethal combo.

Thanks for the links Kex. I'll be driving an LSi setup (15's, 7's, and C).

I haven't decided yet, but I might end up selling my B&K AV5000. PM me if you have interest.

Any interest in a Kenwood KM-Z1?

6 x 130wpc at 0.02%THD 8 ohms - ALL CHANNELS DRIVEN! It's THX certified, weighs 53 lbs. I've owned it for years and never had an issue. Clean power and cheap. Originally used it with the Kenwood THX controller, back when subs were all passive, (thus the 6th channel) and used with the whole THX certified Kenwood package of mains, subs and surrounds. I've long since sold all the other pieces, but kept the amp to use in my whole house audio system. Took it out when a local Polkie said he wanted it but backed out. In my closet for a year or so but works fine. I even have the original manual.

Sounds as good as the XPA-5 I had for a while (I did an A-B test for fun).

I say cheap, as in $150 plus shipping. I have amps running out my ears and could use the space.
