FS: Earthquake Cinenova Grande 5

Earthquake Cinenova Grande 5  SOLD

Description:

This amp is the epitome of a gentle giant.  It weights ~140lbs and outputs 300wpc into a 8ohm load, doubling down (rare) to 600wpc into a 4ohm load.  This amp is one of the newer ones with the 4Kva transformer (as opposed to the older 3.7Kva) and balanced inputs.  Even though it has an amazing amount of power it is extremely quite at low volumes, and runs quite cool.

300wpc x 5 @ 8ohms
600wpc x 5 @ 4ohms
1000wpc x 5 @ 2ohms
4Kva Transformer
Adjustable crossover for bi-amping
9.25" H x 18" W x 21" D (w/handles)
Weight: 141lbs

Condition:
I have had this amp for around 4 years.  I added dynamat extreme to the capacitors of the L+R amp blocks, as well as the transformer.  It has performed flawlessly except I did have of the monoblocks blow a fuse (my fault) about 6 months ago.  It was sent in for repair and everything has been fine since.

There are some light scratches on the top of the unit that aren't that noticeable and there are sum thin rub marks near the rear of the top that are.

Terms:
This unit will be shipped in the original crate insured with all of the original packaging.  This comes with the unit, stock power cord, and manual (3 hole punched).  Accepting Paypal (add 2%), money order, or personal check.  I will only sell to a buyer with verifiable good feedback.  I have feedback here and on Audiogon.  For sale in the US only.

Anyone out there need a monster of a HT amp?  I have had plenty of interest, but no one pull the trigger yet.

I will vouch for the quality of the sound and the build.  For the money Cinenova amps are way under rated.  I've been using one for a couple of years and am very impressed for what I got for the money. The 300wpc and 600wpc into 4 ohms has been measured in a thorough test done by one of the magazines along with other parameters.  The amp did excellently in everything. 

Btw the OP doesn't know me and I don't know him. This amp remaining to be for sale at this price amazes me and is the only reason I posted.

Thanks warner, this thing is a beast.  I think it was Secrets that tested it and found at 4ohms it actually output a little over 600wpc.  Even with that amount of power it is silent both mechanically and through speakers, a very impressive feat.
