Looking for a speaker selector for 3 pair or more. Would like built-in overload protection. Needs to be in pretty good condition. Budget is probably $50 or less.

Adcom GFS-3, Adcom GFS-4, Adcom GFS-6, Niles SVL-4 or something similar (suggestions are welcome). Anybody have one sitting in a closet?

    Sorry mine is not for sale either .But the model I have is a Niles SP-6 .6 zone speaker selector w/ a protection circuit.I have run at
    most 2 sets of spks out of the 4 sets that are wired to it. I paid $21.50 + minor shipping from E-Bay and couldn't be happier with
    it's job.I do suggest getting the larger than 3 ,you just never know and at that price you can't go wrong.It's passive w/ wire pair
    from amp to Niles then all speakers to the Niles .All connections are made w/ spring loaded clips.If you go e-bay route make sure the seller does not use paper shards to cushion the pkge w/o bagging it 1st. This happened to me and the shards got into everything
    and I had to clean the thing for hours.I really laid into the seller for this bad idea.
    2chl- Adcom GFA- 555-Onkyo P-3150v pre/amp- JVC-QL-A200 tt- Denon 1940 ci cdp- Adcom GFS-6 -Modded '87 SDA 2Bs - Dynamat Ext.- BH-5- X-Overs VR-3, RDO-194 tweeters, Larry's Rings, Speakon/Neutrik I/C- Cherry stain tops Advent Maestros,Ohm model E

    Got a Monster for very cheap. Was with my house when I bought it. Used for a little while, but decided I didn't need it.

    PMs sent to those that offered - thank you!

    Been watching CL and Ebay too; problem is people need to actually respond to buyers when they are trying to sell something on CL! And list the condition! There's a lot of gear available local, but there's a lot of flakes.

    The only Adcoms I've seen have the twist lock style connection like on some of the gfa-535 amps. Is there a particular model/version that accepts bananas?

    Found the Adcom..
    it is a GFS-3.. little dusty, but no scratches
    IDK about the functionality or either one, as I have not used either...
    You are welcome to try them both and return the one you don't like :)
    Just LMK... I have to go up to Bham Friday, but will back in town Saturday...
    I hope
