  1. Makes 3 of us. Excellent seller, excellent speakers and excellent price.
  2. I bought this amp to match with a pair of JBL studio monitors. I sold those and do not have a application for this amp. It has the fan replaced which is a common upgrade the amp is dead quiet. Selling to fund other projects, 250.00. Pics available on request. I would prefer local p/u (Magnolia Texas) but willing to ship if so desired.
  3. I bought this from a fellow forum member a few years back and rarely used it. This Marantz AV7005 Preamp/Home Theater Processor/Tuner is in excellent condition. The piece works as designed, sounds great and is in almost like new. I am selling it only because my wife bought a new entertainment center and it won’t fit! So in saying that I would consider trades for an equal value slim line receiver. The unit will come with both remotes, Audyssey mic for room calibration, power cord. I would prefer local pickup however I’m willing to ship it at buyers expense. If shipped I would prefer to double box it for further protection. Shipping cost will be settled after the item ships. This way you don't over pay and I don't underestimate. Price is 500 or trade for a slim line receiver of equal value. Product highlights: Dolby® TrueHD, DTS-HD™ Master Audio, Dolby® Digital Plus, DTS-HD™ High Resolution Audio, Pro Logic® IIz Apple AirPlay®-ready with free firmware upgrade from Marantz Audyssey Laboratories' MultEQ XT six-point auto setup and room calibration system (microphone included) Audyssey DSX processing for enhanced surround sound height and width effects using additional front speakers Audyssey Dynamic Volume mode to maintain steady listening levels Audyssey Dynamic EQ™ for fuller surround sound at lower volumes iPod®/iPhone® integration through front-panel USB input DLNA-certified to stream music (MP3, WAV, AAC, FLAC, and WMA) and photos from a compatible Windows computer streams music from Internet radio statiions, Rhapsody®, Napster®, and Pandora®, plus photos from Flickr™ (broadband connection required) Bluetooth® streaming with optional RX-101 receiver SIRIUS satellite radio capable (requires SIRIUS subscription and optional SiriusConnect™ home tuner kit) analog audio outputs for second and third audio zones 192kHz/24-bit Burr-Brown digital-to-analog converters for all channels
  4. There is a reason those splits never come up for sale. I will never sell mine already in the will to go to my son. The midrange slam is awesome, enjoy!
  5. Dull? Not my experience if you find them dull remove the grill. They do need s lil eq on the top end but not a lot. I just used a minidsp to fiddle with the peq’s.
  6. These came put of a Grand HF Top section I had. Im pretty sure these drivers will bolt right up to a K510 horn. Function as the should! Looking for 150.00 for the pair plus actual shipping cost. I would also take trades for a Bash 300s or 500 plate amp. Local pickup is alway a plus.
  7. I ended up buying a VTV purifi based amp. I really like it and do not feel that I have given up anything in sound quality. These newer Class D amps are really good not like the old chip amps of the past. I have zero regrets.
  8. That would be great as I don't plan to buy anything for at least another month or two.
  9. Buckeye backlog is Sept......will probably end up with a VTV.

    These things rarely come up snooze ya lose. GLWS!
  11. I have a Marantz AV 7005 that would act as my pre/pro if I decide to buy separate Class D amps and not the all in one powernode solution.
  12. Appreciate the feedback fella's. Schu I listen to Rock/Classic Rock. These will not be a 2 channel only system as they will be in the living room performing movie/TV watching as well. Which Pioneers do you speak of? The Canto's are probably out of my budget. I'm leaning hard to the POWERNODE or go separates with the VTV Purifi based amps. I have several Pro amps but again none of them will fit into my entertainment center.
  13. I asked this question on another forum and got some responses regarding the NODE but none regarding the POWERNODE. Curious if the folks that have LaScala's are running Class D amps and if so what are their thoughts.. below is the original post. Additionally I have a few nice amps but they don't meet the requirements in the new house as far as size goes and the ability to just leave them on all the time. I need something small that runs cool and sounds well like a LaScala should. I searched the interweb and didn't see this topic anywhere so I thought I would ask here. I have a pair of 78 LaScala's (new to me) that I will be using as my mains. I'm considering the new Powernode because of the features that it has and the simplicity of having one item in the signal chain. Has anyone heard the Powernode with heritage Klipsch speakers? I could go the Node route or my little Arylic S50 and look for a nice monoblock pair of Class D amps. If I went this route I could use my Denafrips DAC instead of the onboard TI DAC in the Node. The goal is simplicity and something that sounds great with the LaScala's and "just works". Thought's?
  14. Listen for yourself you may like them to me they were the worst Klipsch pro sub I ever heard.
  15. You have my favorite pro heresy in the kp-201ii's, hold on to them as the rarely come up for sale and for good reason. ANYTHING will be an improvement over the fart boxes AKA KP-115's. The driver in the KPT-484 is an 18" K-49. The K-49 is a 4 ohm, 400 watt woofer and was used by Klipsch in the KPT-484, the KP-480, and the KP-4000. I have the KP-480's that I use with my split lascala's and they sound great to me. I would give those 484's a shot. Again another speaker that rarely comes up. Put some high current through those 484's something like a Crown K2. As far as crossovers go you can always get a minidsp for 100 bucks until you get something better down the road.
  16. Maybe these are not the right speakers for you? Everyone has a different flavor of sound that they prefer, I do not share the same thoughts as you regarding my set of Fives. I'm actually amazed at what these little boxes can do.
  17. I'm out, I'm sure these are fantastic networks.
