Acurus A200x3 - $400 + actual shipping
200w x 3 into 8 ohms, 300w x 3 into 4 ohms, absolute workhorse with fat toroidal in this baby, extremely reliable
I'm the 2nd owner of this (the first being a man using it to drive 3 Infinity Kappa 9's), having purchased from ebay a few months ago. I really love its sound, which is the most neutral I have heard from any amp under $1000. Very wide soundstage, great imaging, just about the best available for under $500. It just turns out that the Rotel sound works better in my system so this must go.
Has never been driven to extremely loud volumes, has never shown any semblance of heat, stays very cool with almost any load. It spent most of it's time driving just 2 speakers, but I can vouch that nothing is lost when a third is added.
Has just one nick about half an inch long on the top edge of the faceplate and one other even smaller scratch on the brushed aluminum faceplate, but otherwise cosmetically beautiful. Looks great in a rack or on a stand. I really would like to hang on to this, but I have no use for it right now and can't justify having such a nice piece hanging around.
Will be packed to withstand anything and will have posts and connectors cleaned with CAIG Gold.
This would be more than enough power for anyone looking to power a front soundstage (or rear). Please PM or post with any questions.
Email for pics (high res) as my image resizing program is on the fritz.
