Sold: Classe Audio CA-200--SOLD
« on: 22 Mar 2017, 09:06 pm »
I purchased this amp used from Overture Audio in 2012. In 2013, I professionally replaced all the Capacitors and Rectifiers with audio grade Nichicon KG Series Capacitors and high grade Hexfrad rectifiers. The case is nearly perfect as the photos will show. It has performed flawlessly for me from day one.

The amp will come with the original owner’s manual, original lug wrench for the speaker posts and packed in the original double boxes.

It is rated at 200 wpc into 8 ohms and will operate down to 2 ohms at a maximum rated power of 500 wpc.  Capable of being run in stereo or as a mono amplifier. Inputs: RCA or XLR (Balanced).

STEREOPHILE review

"The treble also had a tubelike quality; that is, some sheen or emphasis was audible, though not necessarily with attendant distortion such as roughness or grain."

"Time and again I was struck by the CA-200's relaxed, laid-back character—a sound that built effortlessly to big climaxes, achieved with beautiful power and no sense of strain or aggression."

“The CA-200 is a well-built, well-engineered, load-tolerant amplifier with a nice sound; it offers generally good sonic as well as engineering value. At its realistic price, all of this certainly qualifies it for a Class B ranking in Stereophile's "Recommended Components"—in context, a good result for price and specification.”

Price is $1,200 plus shipping
