A friend of mine in the Chicago area is selling his Sunfire Cinema Signature amp (400 - 7 ch)

It works, but I'll probably want to get it looked just to make sure.

Is it worth it for $1,000?

    Correction I have a five channel signature. If you can get the seven channel for that price jump on it!

    Has the amp been recapped yet? Did he say if it has any low level hum to it?

    Amazing amp that pumps out incredible power and barely gets warm. I have the 400 x 5. I hope you picked it up!

    Dang!! Bill Flannery retired two years ago due to health issues. That guy was one of the nicest and most knowledgeable (as he built Sunfire products new) in the business. I called him and 3 hours later we were still talking about Sunfire and Bob.
    What a guy!
