    Very nice, sir. The faceplate looks purdy. Original box, too. This a great way to get into separates... or upgrade from a lesser power amp.

    I would assume that the handles are removable? Also how much would shipping be to 73162?

    I am looking for an amp for my LSI9's. I am sure this would do very nicely.
    Front - RTiA5's
    Rear - RTiA3's
    Center - CSiA4

    Judging from the face plate, and H9 can correct me if I am wrong, that looks to be an 'ORIGINAL' 555 which some consider the 'best' of that model.

    And it looks so 'clean' for its age! Also a GREAT price there, boys!!

    This is a great amp, a workhorse with a lot of good clean power. I have one (not currently in use, but will probably supplement channels in my HT, eventually--have to convince my wife that another big amp in the living room won't hurt it's appearance--which she's come to expect..

    GLWTS!

    Original with early smooth faceplate. Later originals had the ridged facepalte w/rack mount option, same amps
