I am moving soon and changing my home theater, so all the gear has to go. (Pictures will be posted asap)

Audiosource Amp One: I have two of these and they are great, versatile amps. 80wpc at 8 ohms, or 200w bridged. Good for music and even better for theater. Separate volume knobs for each channel makes control easy. Ran this pair on my old B&W 602S3 and they were perfect. Sold one to starkiller, the other to ShinAce

Audiometric AM441: A rare 70's era audiophile amp with great sound and power; 225wpc. Used it for my main speakers for a long time excellent for both music and theater. It uses no fans for a quiet operation with almost no hum. It has a great sound with classic Polks, but is not common ground. (Sounds great with monitors) Sold to seeclear

Marantz AV-550: A classic 5.1 preamp processor with Dolby Digital and dual DSP. This thing has all sorts of ins and outs, but no HDMI. Sounds amazing for theater and also good for stereo listening. The best thing about it is the "Lucasfilm Cinema Re-EQ" which is a THX style movie equalizer. Comes with one of the best LCD remote made. Hook it up to you computer and customize and control everything. $200

Soundstage Vacuum Two Preamp: A tube stereo preamp with great sound and two sets of outputs as well as four inputs. Tubes have about 100 hours on them and is built like a tank. Great tube sound out of a small, attractive package. Sold to bigyank

Audiosource Pre One: This is the preamp that is in series with the Amp Ones. A simple and easy pre that offers you all the stereo options you need in a simple package. $80

Polk SDA 2A: These are original with SL2000 and sound great. A little rough around the edges, but sonically fantastic. They do have one scratched PR, but it doesn't bother me. Comes with IC. $150

Please let me know if you have questions on anything and I'll get back to you quickly. I'd be willing to discuss shipping now...

Sorry about that; I though I put it in there. Updated with price.

I don't remember on the tubes, but I'll check tonight and let you know. I know they are upgraded from the originals.

I know they are NOS, and they are labeled ECC88 OTK D, if that helps.

will the audiometric work good with my rti10's?

It seems like it would be a pretty good match power wise. I was running it on a pair of RT800s that I use to own, and I loved the combo. Where do you live?

Cool. I even have a box big enough to ship the amp if you're interested.

I calculated around $25 for DHL ground service based upon the amp weighing 25lbs. I don't know if this is correct, but I feel like it's close.

Let me clean that up. I was telling Ivans12 that I already sold it since he asked me if it was still available. (Your names also up on the item as sold)
