Time to thin the herd, so offering blowout prices on the following items:

 

Audible Illusions Modulus model IID tube preamp.  Recently re-tubed.  $350.00

 

Class D Audio Model SDS-470, 4 channel amp.  Allowed me to run bi-amp my Polk LSiM707 speakers (2 channels to the bass and 2 channels to the midrange/tweeters) with tremendous results.  This beast runs cool but puts out 300wpc into 8 ohm and doubles to 600wpc into 4 ohms.  Extremely stable and sounds great.  Cost me $1275 new.  Sell for $750.  More info at classdaudio.com

 

Polk LSiM707 speakers.   Heard these at RMAF and thought they blew away most of what was there at many multiples it’s price in both looks and performance.  These are mint with boxes and will astound you with their pinpoint imaging and coherence.  New they are $4000.  A steal at my price of $1875.00.

 

Quicksilver Audio Mini-Mite Tube mono-block amplifiers.  A Mike Sanders Classic and sure to be collectors items.  Tremendous tube sound and dependability.  $775.00

 

Sony DVP-9000ES SACD/CD/DVD player.  Built like a tank and heavy with a vault like sound when you load a CD.  I used it as a world class CD transport (it was built from the lessons learned from the Sony SACD-1 which is still considered in some circles the best CD player ever made).  $250.

 

Audio Nirvana Single Driver Speakers- Utilizing Audio Nirvan 8” cast frame full range drivers in a very sturdy cabinet these offer incredible sound (maybe the best I have heard) on female vocals.  Not a head-banger speaker but incomparable with smooth jazz and vocals.  $375.00

 

Lastly is a pair of DIY 5” full range speakers.  Sound really nice and in nice cabinets.  $150.  Equipment is located in the San Antonio area. Can ship the electronics but for speakers would prefer local pickup or handoff in Texas.  Email if interested.

As a forum vet - you know the folks around here.  That's some nice gear you are getting rid of, but I hope you put the 707's up for sale in the Polk forums as well (especially at that price)!!!! I've a friend that has the 705's powered by a sherbourn amp and they sound very impressive indeed.

I did list the Polk's on the Polk board and got some interest but don't want to ship them.

No, a friend here in San Antonio made them.  They are incredible for vocals; maybe the best I have heard but are lacking in other areas (obviously) due to being a single driver speaker.

Just out of curiosity. We're the Audio nervana speakers made by me? God they look like some I built 2-3 years ago.
