Up for sale is my McCormack DNA225 power amplifier. Not a ton to say about this amp that hasn’t been said on this forum many times over. Plenty of power, high current, detailed yet extremely musical amplifier. Very nice shape cosmetically and operates as it should. Great amp for those looking to move up from some of your older B&K and Parasound gear. I do have all original packaging, manual, and power cord.
225 wpc @ 8 ohms and 400 wpc @4 ohms
Looking for $1500. Local pickup is welcome but shipping is available on your dime. Located in Maryland 21921.

@Gerres26 I'd let this ad run for a few days so some more of the regulars get a chance to see it.

@Toolbox149 , as always I will let the fellow Polkies get first dibs on this at least for a few days before selling off of the forum. It’s a perk of being part of the community here. -

It's kind of a bummer that Danny has the oe box and packing for this amp, because the buyer will miss out on his custom component packing skills, which are nothing short of artful.I disabled signatures.

So was I the only one who noticed this? -
I took this as a joke... if not @jdjohn , just let me know bud
-
@Gerres26 actually not a joke, although it's more of a 'want' than a 'need'. I need to check my rack space first if that's okay. I currently have a DNA-125, so need to consider configuration. I will let you know one way or the other tomorrow if that's okay."This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine
