Selling current model Cary Audio SA-500.1 monoblock amplifiers in like-new condition for $4,995, which is half the retail price of $9,990.
These are the best solid state amplifiers Cary has ever made, with 500 wpc into 8 ohms and 1,000 wpc into 4 ohms. Build quality is outstanding. Features include a huge power supply with an expensive 1,500 kVA low noise transformer, high capacitance, double the heat sinks of the previous model, and high quality parts throughout. I will include Hi Fi Tuning fuses on the mains inputs.
Based on the considerable effort Cary put into these, they should be a current model for the foreseeable future and are built to provide many years of trouble-free operation while having the support of a long-time, healthy company. These were used by the dealer to demonstrate Cary Audio with very high end speakers at an audio show, and then for only a short time by me, so they have very low useage.
In comparison to their former model, the well-regarded 500MB amps, these new SA-500.1 monoblock amps offer the advantages of higher quality and beefier parts, an improved power supply (the heart of an amplifier), newer technology resulting in much lower noise, better resolution and soundstaging, outstanding bass reproduction, modular construction, a more robust chassis and other improvements to virtually every aspect of the design, construction, and sound, as explained on Cary's website. If, like me, you believe an amplifier's weight reflects the quality of construction, consider these weigh 65 pounds each!
The original Cary double boxes (with spaced away molded foam inserts), power cords, manuals, and extra fuses (no, they have never blown a fuse) are all included.
I will accept payment only by either PayPal (and will split the fee), or by USPS money orders. Buyer pays shipping from 49008.
