Musical Fidelity A308 integrated amp

Up for sale is my Musical Fidelity A308 integrated. It is in very nice shape cosmetically and performs as it should. This is a very musical piece that sounds great with my big Polks. Nice high current design with 150 wpc@8 ohms and 300@4 ohms. I'm only selling it to hopefully move up the Musical Fidelity line a little.

I'm looking for $1500 obo. Comes with remote and power cord. I don't have the original box but it will be packaged nicely and double boxed for shipment. I'm located in MD so I can meet between Baltimore and Philly for any local sales.

    Oh man. I was looking for one of these a few months ago, but picked up a different amp. I had one of these and sold it here on the forum a few years back.

    Really great sounding unit...

    Very nice. If you upgrade to another mf, I would skip the m6-500. Just a heads up. GLWTS

    Thanks for the heads up, that's not one of the models I've been looking at thankfully.

    So I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a Tri-Vista 300 this morning. I didn't plan on purchasing so quickly but you know how that goes. So now this beauty definitely needs to find a new home...anyone interested, feel free to make me an offer.

    Add a 1 to the beginning and move the decimal two places to the right and you've got a deal ;)

    This piece will put a lot of separates to shame.

    Sweet deal on this piece, and great seller too.

    I'm really surprised this is still here. So rare they pop up and in this kind of condition.

    MF makes gear you can really appreciate if you enjoy design aesthetic as part of your audio obsession/appreciation. Simple, burly, great sound.

    I just bought the A308"CR" version of this pre-amp, otherwise i'd be on this one.

    It is really nice and sounds great. I honestly thought I would keep it a while longer but I got the itch to try the TriVista and so I had to scratch lol

    Normally I would Tony but this time I'm just looking to recoup some cash spent on the TriVista

    Gotcha man, all good. Still a nice piece here for anyone looking at it. Certainly won't be disappointed with the sound that this puppy produces. Good luck on the sale.
