The H/K PA2000 can be run either as a distribution amplifier, say for your Zone 2 off your HTR, with 2 45 wpc 2-ch amplifiers, or as a bridged 100 wpc 2 ch amplifier. High current output for long speaker cable runs. Has a sweet sound that I am told matches that of H/K HTR receivers. I used this bridged in 100 wpc mode to drive my FXi5 side surround speakers, prior to scoring another pair of used Outlaw M200's.

$150 including shipping to CONUS. As always, Canadian and AK/HI members pm me to discuss shipping. I have the original box, manuals, etc. and it will be packed securely for shipping. MO is preferred payment method.

**** sale pending to daboyz ****

    dkg999 is a solid Polkie. I've had him over a couple times and because of his generocity I have a pair of Monitor 5b's and an almkost new Yamaha AX-900U all for my office rig. He was also kind enough to let me demo some of his gear for about 3 weeks.

    can you bridge two channels and leave the other two in stereo? Maybe someone could use it as a three channel amp, I could possibly use on if I can make some rack room.

    Carvers on the mains, 100 wpc HK to center, 45 wpc HK to rears.

    I don't believe you can make a 3 ch amp out of this. The options look like either a single input, such as from your Zone 2, to two 2 ch 45 wpc amps. So your Zone 2 could be distributed to your deck and your bathroom! Or you can bridge it and have a 2 ch 100 wpc stereo amplifier.

    Just out of curiosity, is it up on CDs for better ventilation, for the photos, or is there something wrong with the feet?

    I'm considering the amp... I've wanted a little extra power for my RTis for a while, and would much rather something from a Polkie than going on eBay....
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I have one of these amps bridged to 2 channel and using it as a zone 2 driver for Polk Atrium speakers outside. I don't believe you can make it a 3 channel amp. For my purposes, it is a great sounding amp.

    Bobman - only propped up on the CD's to help take the picture!!!! The feet are in excellent condition. Overall only a couple of light scuff's on the top from having an Outlaw M200 that was driving my center channel setting on top of it. I'll look again tonight, but I don't think there were any other nicks/scuffs that I noticed.

    dkg999, you are going to single handedly provide everyone in the Rockford area with new audio gear. :D .

    No one shamelessly ups the post count like me. Nearly 1000 posts, probably about 3 helpful/useful ones.
