Unit is in VGC and works as should. 90% sure I am getting a new amp and pre tonight, so putting out a feeler on this. Selling back the pre to Jeff for what he sold it to me for.

I will post pictures later if all works out. Any questions, shoot me a pm or post here.

300.00 plus ship.

    I am not the original owner. Third, I think. I never drove it too hard as my wife works 3rd shift, and my room is not too big. I'll get some pics up soon.

    I can't upload pics. It says that they exceed the limits. Each pic is around 2.10 mb. Not sure what is going on.

    Good job so next up is pics of your Parasound and a review on how it sounds, and how it compliments your 2B'S, by the way your Adcom looks nice good deal for someone for sure. I've had my 555II over a week now and loving it.

    Yeah the nice thing, other than the performance of these amps, is that they have been around this price for a long time and probably will continue for a long time to come. Hard to get hurt in getting one of these.

    If I hadn't already committed to Scotty's, I would already own yours.

    Of course...I suppose if 2 555s showed up, divorce wouldn't be all THAT bad... :lol:

    You did good ZLTFUL, 2 555's just beat her to the door since they are the same you should be able to sneak one pass her, until they are both set up, which might bide you some time to come up with an excuse for owning a couple. Enjoy

    I am going to play stupid with her at first...I should be fine while tey are set up with the 2 channel system but the second one is ultimately the start of the set for my HT. Going to track down a third for a good price and sell off both of my Emotivas. Hehe
