    That one amp has so much fuzz on it I thought it was a small dog at first.

    What's a tad unusual is the previous items he's dealt in on eBay. All $10 & $20 bullchit stuff ... not a $100 item in the bunch.

    Great line from the ad...
    Given the discounted price, only cashiers checks will be accepted for payment.

    Maybe the guy decided he didn't like Krell after all... :rolleyes:

    Half million dollar system... living in a very nice area of the country (and heck, probably considered one of the nice places in the world)... remodeling the house... yup, this dude is rich!

    But you never know, he might live in a two room house and drive a Yugo and sells his blood, plasma, and man stuff whenever possible to pay for that stuff.

    Sometimes you just have to unload the old crappy stuff when you get a whim to upgrade. After all, this may be his garage system... :D

    I totally understand why he is selling this stuff.........The guy is probably a little shrimp and and since he is moving he would have the 396 pound subwoofer to move around again. He is probably having nightmares about himself breaking his back.

    That sub ...2600 watt with 1" thick aluminum housing......Boy, I would like to hear it once to see if it would be worth the hassle of moving. Of course it would probably shake our whole house and maybe even the garage 50' away..

    Guess I'll just point out the obvious....


    If I could afford gear like that I wouldn't be buying it on EBay for a 'discount'. At some point money is no longer a roadblock and I think that point was surpassed some time if you can drop that much coin on the pleasure of your ears.

    The guy probably figured out that a couple of 1.2TL's would sound 98% as good as his system and decided to bail out on Krell as a result.

    Either that, or the wifey is the audiophile and she is on vacation at some resort and the husband has just had enough of her ****.
