    Thanks. It sounds as good, if not better than the Parasound HCA 1000a i had for awhile. That's why I let it go. Silly to run it when the Onk did just as well.

    I'd be considering this if I hadn't just gone through a full round of 2 channel upgrades. This is a beast of an AVR. GLWTS

    I'm sure that it will. Just give it a few days. The forum as a whole (and the flea market in particular) doesn't get the action it used to...

    This is a good price on a nice piece, but I think some of the flea market issues can be attributed to tossing a high price out there and then bumping it with decreases on a regular basis. If the seller was willing to take what sometimes amounts to 50% less, that's where they should have started. At least that's how the flea market used to work when it was the best place, bar none, to buy.

    Still using my 805. Just about enough power to do M-70s (CS2/M-30s) justice even without a power amp? Monster class for sure.

    Although a bit dated tech-wise (well not for me, but some), if all you need is some HDMI 1.3s and gobs of REAL power for an AVR (can do an honest 130 W x 5 continuous), this price is a steal!

    That's a crazy good price, should have been gone already. Man, people have to recognize a deal when they see it.

    Good luck on your sale, someone will get a heck of an avr for the price of dinner at Ruth Chris.

    Ok just found a good deal on a marantz na7004 streamer. So this item is off the market for now. Everything I'm reading says it will read a FAT32 2 TB hard drive.

    I'm not sure what that is. Would my tv have to be on?

    Just out of curiosity, why would you want a 2TB formatted with fat32?

    Because that's what I have. About 2000 're ripped to it.
