Shodrewken Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 When did you pick that up Youth? Oh, and GLWS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 24, 2014 Author Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2014 Thx guys. I picked it up a few weeks ago. I've never owned any B&K gear but have heard willland's B&K's and they always sounded great with his RF-63's so I thought I'd give it a try. I was curious to see how it compares to my Sherbourn and Acurus amps. I've been swamped with design projects so so I haven't had a chance to bring it into the HT to swap with the Sherbourn. The more I think about it, it's going to be a royal pain to move that 120 lb amp just to do a side by side comparison with the B&K, especially since it's not easy to get behind the amp. It's just something I don't have time to do right now. I'm in the middle of designing 5 websites and am waiting on deposits for 5 more so I'm really trying to get these finished before those next deposits come in. Was up till 2am last night working on an ecommerce site for one of my customers. Took my son to school at 7am so I'm sleep deprived. I have had it hooked up via 2ch in my living room to the RF-7ii's since I bought it and don't hear any difference between it and the Acurus (willland probably could LOL). Both amps sound great, very detailed, powerful and really drive the RF-7ii's with authority. I've decided that since my Sherbourn has 7 monoblocks in 1 chassis and is in near mint condition, it would be the better of the two to keep. One day I'd be curious to pick up a Krell or a Classe amp to see if the next tier amps offer any sonic difference than what I'm using now. My guess is my ears won't hear much difference. I've had a chance to compare a few amps (Parasound, Acurus & Sherbourn) in my setup. All 3 were 200 watt x ch amps and I "might" have heard very subtle differences but could not verbalize what my ears were hearing. All 3 sounded so similar, I'm not sure I could have picked them out in a blind test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wstrickland1 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Great amp. I have one just like it and I would not part with it for $1,000. Somebody needs to jump on this. I'm glad I didn't know about this yesterday I'd have probably had him meet me with it on my way back from Vero... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 24, 2014 Author Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) You were at Vero Beach and didn't swing by? Shame on you. Would have loved to have met you and your family. Buy mine for $1000 or this guy's for $1850. Edited January 24, 2014 by Youthman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy mine for $1000 or this guy's for $1850. Well I was flying solo and did a round trip from Charleston in the same day and carrying precious cargo on the return trip . We'll get down there as a family in the near future and come see you guys. And I wouldn't sell my 200.7 even for $1,850. That should not last long at all.
