Beware of GaryGray873. PM'd me saying he had a Kinergetics SW800C crossover (in response to my WTB ad here). In our email exchange, he said he had 2 crossovers for sale @ "130$" each. I asked for pics and he sent pics he pulled off the web from here...

Let me know where you are. I might have what you’re looking for.

I was recently quoted $2880 plus shipping.

PrimaLuna amps tend to have relatively high output impedances, which are probably not a good thing with Martin Logan speakers. Here's an excerpt from the Evo 400's measurements in Stereophile: The amplifier's output impedance also depended on the output mode and tap. The highest impedance was...

Will do. Thanks!!!

Given your $300 budget for the preamp, you should probably look at one of the Schiit headphone amps: Magni ($99), Vali ($149), or Magnius ($199).

Here's an ML 27.5 with a face- and top-plate issue. I wonder if the culprit here is the sun, since the purpling doesn't correspond with the hottest parts of the amp?

DanR - Very nice Krell! Here's a Threshold S/500 that is the poster child for purpling of heatsinks. Stay very far away from this one. Some brands had problems with their anodizing over the years, but it shows up across the product line. Threshold and ML not so much, which tells me...

I owned the ML 23 at one time. I thought it sounded very good although it was not an easy amp to move about. If I were buying one that has been worked on, I would want to know who worked on it and if they are truly competent when servicing ML gear. I would also want to know what they...

I've sold a bunch of gear recently and had success mostly on CL and US Audio Mart. CL has the advantage of being face-to-face and cash. USAM makes it more expensive for the buyer since there is shipping and PP fees, but you get a wider audience. On CL, I have sold and bought stuff very...

I have the SW800s, now I need the crossover.

Pair of Classe 15s, a Belles 350A, Classe DR-8, a Threshold Stasis 2, 2 x McIntosh MC250s, a Rogue Eighty-Eight Magnum, and a Rowland Model 1. Near Denver, CO.

Well, I've been contemplating when to engage in another wave of selling. The problem with beefy amps is that the price of shipping keeps going up, so I'm considering whether to just try to sell off the amps locally. Anyway, let me know if you're interested in any particular amp and I can tell...

I definitely have this affliction though not to the same degree as mentioned above. As a bachelor, I had a stereo setup in my living room and small HT setup in my basement, but I had spare gear/projects stashed all over the house. Then, I added a 10x10 storage locker. I got married and moved...

The panel replacement price definitely works in favor of the buyer and I used it as leverage when buying a pair. I picked up CLS-IIZs for $600. They were made in 1995 and are still working great. No sign of buzzes and rattles. From talking to the seller, it sounds like they basically sat...

Thanks for the welcome! I've had my share of amps and preamps. I've recently purged a bunch of gear, but then last week I found a pair of CLS-IIZs with Kinergetics SW800s for a good price. So, now I kinda wish I still had some of that gear to try. I've tried a couple of preamps so far, but...

I think RJ is onto some good criteria to help guide you to the amp you'll need. Specifically, how big of an amp you'll need. This, in conjunction with your budget, will drive your pool of alternatives. As you look at those alternatives, think about the following thoughts as you evaluate these...
