My viscious cycle of trying amps ending with this when I was trying to find an amp that worked great for home theater and music. This amp ended that quest. Since I've moved to separate rigs, I can't justify having an extra powerhouse amp sitting around. Don't be fooled by the fact that this is 20 years old. It's a monster amp that never flinched when driven hard by my LSi15's.

200 x 2 @ 8ohms, 350 x 2 @4 ohms

I've also owned a newer B&K 200w amp, the Ref 2240, and I think that this amp is more dynamic and lively without any grain. I do know that this amp was sent to B&K last year to be gone over and they replaced some caps and other small parts. The last owner said that B&K tested it at better-than-new specs so I'd put it up against any new B&K amp any day.

It's in amazing shape for its age with a nick right by the power switch and a few tiny nicks on the top faceplate edge that are not noticeable except upon close inspection (see pics). The rest of the amp looks excellent for the age (8/10 for age and the small nicks only).

Comes with original box and power cord.

$400 plus shipping or $435 shipped and Paypal'd

I will throw in a 1.5m PS Audio Power Punch power cord for $25 extra or an Iron Lung Jellyfish power cord for $10 extra.

Second set of pics. As you can see, the nick is barely noticeable.
