I second that comment from Steve
CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint. -
Bumper, Thumper!

I may be interested Terrax...can you provide any current pics of the amp?
Thanks! -
I would glad to post pics, but I do not have access to a digital camera. I borrowed one a couple of weeks ago to get some pics up at the time. If I can get access to one, I most certainly will.
BTW, welcome to the forum, Mothra -
Thanks for the kind welcome Terrax. As you can see, I registered long ago, but then stopped coming to the site, as other hobbies took priority.
Things change, so I've been lurking again for awhile. Your amp finally got me to post. Don't you feel special!
Regards! -
Aye, special indeed. And here I thought I had the Lurker Crown all wrapped up.......
Well, I quess welcome back, would be a better way of putting it. -
-
Just so everyone understands, the price has been dropped to $250.00 on this, shipping included.
Thats 200 w/c into 4ohms and 400 watts bridged. Would make one helluva passive sub amp. Or, as I once ran it, a killer center channel amp. -
Terrax,
Is the amp still avail? Let me know.
Thanks

I am looking for an amp to replace my Proton AA-1150 and was steered to this ad. Please let me know.
Millard -
Thanks for the interest. Someone has indicated they would like to get the amp, but won't know until this weekend. If they do not want it, It will still be up for grabs.
Thanks,
Terry
