I have a pair of Monarchy SE-100 Delux (not the Basic) amps w/ original box and manual if you are interested.  I'm not sure of the rules/regulations on shipping to Toronto, but if you are interested, let me know.

Here is the manufacturers site for further information.

The original speaker binding posts were replaced with Cardas posts, otherwise all original.

I have a brand new, never touched, Odyssey Khartago amp with all the upgrades Klaud offers. I'd let it go for $700.

How about the Khartago for the Silverline's, then my TAD-60 for your Stratos, then the SIlverline's for the TAD-60?

Hello-I have a Parasound HCA-2003 (200W x 3 channel) amp that I'm going to be selling soon as I'm upgrading to another amp.
Using Audiogon.com the prices for these type of amps has been between $500.00 & $670.00 (US).
I'd be open to consider any decent offer.
Thank You & best of luck in your search
Ron B.

I have a Mackie pro FR800 with 300w into 4 ohms, stable pro power that works great with planars.

$260    :o

Also have the model above, the FR1400 which I believe is 500w per channel into 8 ohms.

$320    :o

Both like new :thumb:, bought right after Xmas, but went in a different direction.

Again, pro audio amps are quite strong into 4 ohms and offer a great match with planars, like Maggies, etc.

I have a Conrad Johnson Premier 4 tube amp that is rated at 100 WPC that i don't use anymore because I now have a pair of Conrad Johnson premier 5 monoblocks in my system.

If you are not familiar with how tube amps work, and their inherant storage capacity, you may be gettin in over your head. An all tube amp rated at 100 WPC will surpass the performance and sustained higher voltage requirements of a solid state amp rated at 900 WPC.
It will also handle the crazy capacitance variance of planar speakers with ease, compared to a solid state amp.

However, $1000 won't get it. I would sell it for $1500.
You can go to the Conrad Johnson website and check it out for yourself, but it cost over $4,000 new.

Think about it.
