======SOLD======Pair AURALiC MERAK 200w monoblocks The reviews say it all about Xuanqian Wang's brilliant engineering with his hybrid Class A/D amps (Class A front end, Class D back end). Originally $5000/pair. Selling for very fair price of $
2100 $
1975 $1800
plus including shipping within the contiguous US and the Paypal fee. At the time of posting, these are the only MERAKs for sale in the US. Can't go any lower than this!
Excellent functional condition and "good" cosmetic condition due to a couple of cosmetic issues. See photos (see if you find them). Overall, they are very presentable.
The sound is stellar with strong dynamics and smooth presentation. A fantastic mating of Class A and Class D. I am selling these as my speakers are now very high efficiency full range drivers that do best with low power amps.
Other notes: shipping without power cords as most will use their preferred cables. I will include a couple of standard power cords if needed.
