Looking for a reasonably priced amp to power some RTA12b's for the garage..shipped to 98327...local is preferred but i know how that goes...possible trade bait in that i have lots of cd's and lp's and also stuff like a H/K 330b receiver and a Heathkit FM3 tuner...

    Starkiller- How much power you looking for? I've got an 80WPC Adcom 5300 I'd could let go for $160 shipped?

    After looking at some of the bay prices, I see I didn't give a good polkie discount so call it $130 shipped. Works great, presentable but has some scratches on top and bottom. Would have to pull it out and take pics to remember exact condition. Used it as a center channel amp for awhile but went back to just the AVR.

    I'd probably go with the Adcom over that model Onkyo amp. And I am an Onkyo fan. The Onkyo is rated at 80wpc at 8 ohms as well. It was one of their much lower end power amps. But then again, you need it for the garage. And we do not know what a "good price" is either. :cheesygrin: So it may be a deal. I dunno....just my ramblings.....

    Also part of a rack system I believe.

    :sad:

    I may have a newer H/K receiver in your price range if that would interest you.

    I assumed so, but "amp" can mean different things to different people. :lol:

    No longer looking for one, found a good working Dynaco Stereo 120 amp for a decent price! Thanks for all the suggestions...
