Hey guys,
I've been looking at budget amplifiers, I'm currently using a B&K pt3 I got here on the forums for $100, a emo XDA-1 and a Yamaha M-45 I borrowed from my dad. Most of the amps I am finding are way over priced, and even older than the outlaws. These particular amps are in perfect condition, and were likely from the later productions of the m200's. They are at the most are 8 years old though, and originally retailed for $300 a piece. Do you guys think I am massively overpaying for these, I have seen them go for $160 on the forums, but they weren't in this condition, and I believe that price was before shipping. I really wanted to get mono-blocks, and these are by far the most affordable ones I have found, so I was just looking for some input.

Front B: Klipsch F-10
Center: Polk CS-2
Rear: Polk Monitor 40's
Subwoofer: Klipsch Sub-12
Receiver: Yamaha HTR-6130
Cd Player: Kenwood Dv-605 dvd player to play data disks.
Macbook pro/External Blu Ray as a HTPC for media.

Overpriced? How about they cost more because they are better amps to begin with.Political Correctness'.........defined
