    Cool. Just let me know.

    Sorry I haven't gotten back to you on this. I've had some things come up and I need to not spend this much money right now.

    No worries man, I figured as such.

    Give me your email and I will send them to you. Again due to the open nature of the forum to google I prefer to not post the ones I have as this is listed in other locations for considerably more as I am trying to offer a lower price here intentionally.

    I know, where the heck is everyone?!? Is this gonna be one of those sleeper ads that sits in wait, and then five people come looking later all at once, crying that they always miss the good opps?

    Going to say I'm open to shipping at this point. Price will be 350 + shipping with potentially some wiggle room there.

    I wont be hurt if it doesn't sell here since this is discounted from those other places I'm selling it by a fair margin :smile:

    As anyone whose bought from me can attest, I pack very well using hard foam, thick boxes and double boxed and insured for replacement value and then some. So far I haven't had a package arrive damaged thankfully.

    I prefer to us USPS as I have found their rates tend to be the best and haven't had too much trouble with items arriving on time and without damage.

    LOL... sorry man. Prefer a straight sale, thought at this point I'd be open to trades for either a decent Plasma/LCD TV of medium size or a set of AudioEngine A5+'s lol.....

    Got that right, the wine bill is always more than the food. One bottle of Borolo and another Silver Oak....that alone costs as much if not more than the amp.

    I've said it before, this is a great amp guys, buy with confidence from the Mountain Dew sucking down guy who takes care of his stuff. Any of you with the smaller 750's or 1000 amps, now is your chance to upgrade.

    Bob, I think you would love this amp and Dan does a super job packing. The USPS tracking emails are excellent too.

    Well, the Mrs isn't totally against this...but I must sell the HCA1000 in short order. What would you guys think I could get for it in decent condition(I would say 6 or 7 out of 10)? I can only find a HCA1000a on auction.

    I paid 125 for mine and sold it for the same. Prob 7 to 8 condition. Used Parasounds seem to be going up though. Reputation and reliability is catching up. Personally, i think the 12v trigger is a must for a lot of people. You might get more.

    Now dammit, what the hell people. Now I'm getting upset. Someone needs to wise up and buy this Damn thing. You guys that are on the fence or hemming and hawing just need to get your asses up and do yourself a favor and buy it. Plain and simple.

    If not for my HCA1000 winding up in the repair shop today, this thing would have been sold.

    What kills me is, you know as soon as he removes this someone will be posting about wanting an amp or amps are too expensive. Never fails.
