Owner Notes:This was my primary receiver for several years before being able to upgrade and switch back to 2-channel music only… Just no longer needed all of the connections. This unit works well and has some serious power. At the time I was using this unit, it easily powered a pair of power-thirsty Magnepan 1.7i speakers with ease. Anyway, since my upgrade, this has just been sitting on a shelf in my office, so it’s time for it to find a new home. I realize this is an older unit so I’ll be running this as no reserve and let the market set the price. The winner pays for shipping. I have the original box and will ensure it is safely packaged. PayPal accepted unless you are in the Seattle area, I’ll be happy to drive up to 50 miles to exchange.
