Is this a good deal? I’ve always wanted a Carver amp but I don’t really know much about them. I’d use them to run Polk Monitor 7’s in a small room. Thanks.

    Can't say I'd hesitate... Cosmetics aside of course.

    That’s a steal - even if you don’t end up liking them, they’re eminently flippable.
