    Hi,
    I would rate it 7/10. Its in the HT now, powering a pair of LS-50. A nice improvement over the built in amp in the denon avr. I bought it 3 years ago off of ebay. Never had a problem with it. Sounds good, looks good. Thanks for the interest.

    I've met biker numerous times, and I have seen/heard this amp in person.

    No reason to hesitate...a nice amp from a great polkie.

    This amp is looking for a new home. I would trade for a equal value single disc cdp. Anybody anybody!

    Not shure if this is equal value or not but I've go a Magnavox CDB-650 and an Audio Alchemy DDE that have just been sitting around. The Mag has fair cosmetics and no remote, The DDE is very good. I also have a Luxman and Phiilips CDP that I might be willing to sub is you are interested.

    Hi,
    I just finished the latest changes on the Twisted Pear Audio Buffalo dac kit I built so I am good for a dac. Sorry the magnavox is too old. What are the other two cdps ages?

    The other two are just about as old. The Luxman is a DZ-112 I purchased in 1989 or 1990 and the Phillips is a CD-880 I got of the forum a year or so ago and is as old if not older than the Luxman. I don't have anything newer.

    This is a good amp! Someone needs this amp. Its silent compared to my jolida! I would trade for a cdp (Transport use only. SPDIF needed) to be used with my new dac or a nice tube phono amp. LMK.

    That is 150 @ 8 ohms and 200 @ 4 ohms? This amp is calling my name, but I just blew my stash on a pair of LSI 9's and shipping from WA to PA would be ugly. Someone should jump on this. I have two B&K ST model amps. They are killer.
    And I mean calling all cars, blackhawk down, mushroom cloud, Three Mile Island, lock the door behind you kind of mad.:mad:

    Due to the stack of stereo gear that needs a new home, I will sell this for $225 + shipping. It will be double boxed. Otherwise its off to ebay.
