SOLD>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ok fella's decided today to clean my florida room of stuff sitting around..

This has been through a few mods/cases to get what i think is the perfect combination. Let me start by saying the case and passive pre was won on karma so it is free with the sale only. If it doesnt sell here it stays here unless i dismantle it and then it will be karma'd here.. Ok so what you are paying for is,
The sonic impact amp board, binding post, led lights, power supply and case with switches, power cord and all the other stuff i had to buy new to make the whole setup.. This does not distort at full volume with this power supply.
I made it so if you remove the cover its a large mallory blue cap and a transformer from a kids ride on car charger.. No hum. The great thing is it can be used as a passive pre with the output rca's on back or hook your speakers to the binders and your on amp power. I painted the amp case cover to kinda match the power supplies crinkle finish only in silver to match the rest of the case.. very nice and portable 5 watt amp combo..

$OLD , thats alittle over 30 bucks for my parts. the amp cost that with shipping alone.. the parts ran about 30 all together with the ps case .. if you want the orginal sonic impact case i think i have that also..

Has 1 set of gold Rca's on the right for input and a pair of the same on the back for output of the passive pre portion or the binding posts for power

    Someone should definately snatch this up - the passive pre from Monarchy Audio alone is worth over $60 with the extra outputs...easily over $100 worth of stuff here for less than half that...

    If I didn't already have this identical set for my computer rig.......

    He has just a monarchy pre, its passive so it sounds like the source.. however the sonic impact just amplifies that sound.. not much coloring from this small amp i don't think...

    On my PC rig I have a Monarchy Pre and an unmodified Sonic Impact amp - the sound is very good - you'll be surprised how far 5 watts can go...
