$150.00 Shipped & Insured, Lower 48. SOLD to greg2350
Great little amp. Has a few scratches on its top only, but works great. 60 watts x 2 of underated power. Pushed my B&W 1NT's with ease.

    I had the 5400, which is the next step up, and it had plenty of high currant power. Don't let the watts scare ya on this on. Also these things can handle low ohms way better than a receiver.

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Hell I have one, and have used it to drive Carver amazings, Polk 1.2tl and right now a pair of Vandersteen 2ci, GREAT little amp. Now the Carver's needed more, but it amazed me it even drove them.

    Good luck on the sale.

    Those things typically benched out at 78wpc into 8 ohms before reaching rated distortion.

    Reputed to be the best SOUNDING Adcom ever made.

    I also have one driving the Atriums. One of my first purchases in the forum (from Hotwheelman :eek:). Used it for the SDA 1B's, then for the SRS's.


    Powerful and great sound. Good luck with the sale.
