Parasound, Plinius, Sunfire

The new house necessitated some changes in my systems. For one, it allowed me to buy the MD2's, which caused me to make more changes to the systems than I had planned. As it is, I've got excess gear that I hate to get rid of, but as you all know, you can't keep everything.

I'll be at Skip's on the 22nd, so you may be able to avoid shipping costs if you're coming or know someone who is who will pick it up for you.

I'll try to get some pics posted later, but there are no major issue with any of these pieces.

All prices include shipping and paypal fees CONUS


Parasound P5
Nothing really to say about this as it is a well known piece. It's about a year old and honestly hasn't been used too much. I bought it for the HT bypass feature, but I no longer have an HT so there you go. It's in great shape and functions as it should. $725

Plinius 9100
I'm flat out selling this piece for waaay less than it should ever sell for. It's in great shape and functions as it should. $850

Sunfire Super Jr. Sub
Nice, tight bass in a very small footprint. This is not the MKII version. It's in great shape and functions as it should. A great choice if you are looking for a small sub. $500

Parasound 750a
Do a search and you'll see what a giant killer this little guy is considered. Excellent shape especially for its age. $150

If you'd like to put together an entire system on the cheap, don't miss my other thread:

    You've got dibs my friend.

    And I've already been warned about the second part and I understand life-changing is accurate. :D

    Wow, great price on the P5 with all the fine print included. I've found it a seamless, well almost seamless, transition from the tube pre to the P5 with the Tyler bookies because of the bass management. Quality DAC is a major plus, makes this very versital and hard to beat for this price. Where were you a couple of months ago :)

    Oh, and if for some stupid reason the 750a doesn't sell consider it sold.

    P5 went quick, was looking fior one. Oh well. Interestingly enough, I have a 750a that's been sitting idle since I bought it new some time ago.

    Plinius is still available. Firm on the price for now since I never imagined I'd even go this low.

    At a boy, I was curious about this amp especially with so many favourable comments regarding it.

    I think it will be a noticeable upgrade from the Yamaha I'm currently using!

    Plinius is now sold! Jaybeez with the thievery on this deal. Congrats, my man. You're going to love this piece, especially at the price you paid.

    Super Jr. sub still available. If you need something with a small footprint this is your sub. Make a reasonable offer. Worst I can do is say no.

    Here are few pretty bad pictures of it. I didn't realize the red blanket I put for the background would take over so much.

    Just received the Plinius today. Crazy busy this week, but will put it through paces over the weekend. Great packaging and shipping was way faster than expected. Thanks!

    In the running for understatement of the year.
    New here but couldn't resist commenting and congratulating.
    Selling my 8200MkII a long time ago one of my bigger regrets, which I've rectified by finding another. It's now driving my SDA SRS2's right now.
    Really does combine many strengths of both SS and tubes.
