You probably know about this unique product if you are reading this ad. Otherwise, full details can be found at www.butleraudio.com. Also, 3 very favorable reviews on web: Ultimate Audio, About.com and Home Theatre Magazine.
Approximately 200 watts x 5.

Purchased from authorized dealer in December 2004. Balance of 5-year warranty is transferable. Not much use (I constantly move equipment in and out) and has been boxed up the past 12 months. The unit is absolutely pristine - not a mark anywhere that I can see. Please PM me for photos if you are serious.

Retail is $3295. Asking $1850. Will split shipping and, if necessary, paypal.

I've always wanted to try a tube amp in my HT.  Has anyone else used one?

Must resist... :nono:

I've used my Butler TDB-3150 in my HT.  Very nice indeed! aa
