    Just a heads up Larry. Paypal charges now for payments sent as gifts. It can be paid by the payee though.

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    No wonder. I checked my account and I just realised that it defaulted to the credit card (debit actually) (it has never done that before it's always been my checking account) instead of my checking account. Even though they come from the same place it still charged me. It gave the option of charging myself or you Larry. I better check closer in the future. You guys are correct about paypal as a gift and I'm sorry for the confusion and thread diversion. On with the sale!

    I've noticed that depending on the amount of the purchase paypal will default to either my Checking or CC.. so i always have to be watchful of which account it thinks i want to use...

    Outstanding pre-amp at a great price from a solid member. Get off the fence this is an extremely nice sounding pre-amp that is very, very flexible. True balanced inputs and outputs. (2) single ended outputs, HT bypass, remote. Plus it sounds and looks fantastic.

    Larry,

    Great pre....I've been reading Brock's reviews/comments on this for a couple of years now and this is the pre that I need to get. But I don't have that coin at the moment. Isn't that always the case? We just did our taxes, had an extension because we were in Beijing for a year and Uncle Sam has my 'money'!

    Good luck with the sale. This should go fast. It's Adcom's very BEST!

    You won't find a nicer sounding, dead neutral, just gets out of the way pre-amp for the money and more. It's very flexible and it's remote. Why is this still here? It's that good people.

    Sometimes the FM boggles my mind. Great piece, great price, great seller. Home run in my book.

    I might be interested. I will be running a Parasound HCA-3500 with my upgraded SDA 1C's with upgraded crossovers and RDO 194's. I am currently running a Yamaha AVR as my pre amp and KNOW I can find something better. Would this be a good match with setup? I just need a good quality pre amp that I am not going to be looking at upgrading in 6 months.
