SOLD : ACURUS 200X3 3 channel Amp - $350 OBO

Yes, the name says it all : 200WPC into 3 channels (at 8ohms : 300WPC into 4 ohms).

If you're looking at this, you probably know something about Acurus / Aragon of former Mondial Designs (now reborn by Indy Labs).  Simple robust Mil-spec build with no fancy cosmetics: glass epoxy boards, heavy torroidal transformers, thick steel chassis, all US made.  The 200WPC is likely understated.  This amp has all the power to drive the hungriest most inefficient speakers. 

I eventually moved on to a 7 channel Krell amp, but kept this around out of nostalgia, but it's time to move on.

I think the original retail was like $1500, but I'm asking $350, which is the current average on Ebay.  I'll also consider interesting trades.  Nothing specific in mind, but currently into tube gear.

I prefer paypal as personal / gift for speed & for no commission, but will accept other forms of payment.

I don't have the original box (or manual) but will be carefully packed & can be sent USPS, UPS, Fedex (preferred).  Shipping weight is somewhere between 35-40lbs.

In 8/10 cosmetic condition : a few minor scratches along the top edge of the face plate.

Any other questions, please feel free to ask.
