Sunfire 300~2 $900
« on: April 18, 2011, 02:30:01 PM »
Selling my Sunfire 300~2.  

If you don't already know it is 300 wpc into 8 ohm, 600 wpc into 4 ohm and 1200 wpc into 2 ohm.  It is in very nice condition and is signed by Bob Carver last September.  I have owned it for over a year and I bought it off of forum member BrianT.  So you know it was very well taken care of.

I can post pic's but it is pretty much the same as the one Tom has down at his shop but it has solid brass 5 way binding posts and a grounded power cord.

Only reason I am selling is to help pay for my new Sunfire Signature 600 I got last month and I would rather know it was being used instead of sitting on a shelf collecting dust at my house.

Scary good amp,  i just got one myself.  
Up there with the McCormack i used to have in sound quality, but with even more reserve power.

Good luck on the sale.

Not much action on this wonderful sounding amp.  So I will drop to the price to $900 and add some pics.

Just to screw with you guys I am going to do a final price reduction, and if no one bites then I am keeping it.

$850...I am taking a loss at this price.  You guys need to step up quickly as I am already have the thoughts in my head of saying "Screw you guys!  I am taking my amp and going home".

OK - 700 and a case of RedNeck Pinot wine to be delivered at CarverFest -- plus a case of Klingon Blue to be delivered just before Christmas.  (  together a $700 value).  Cheap wine is for sale everywhere - I don't make that.   8) 8) 8) 8)

I know the amp is worth a 1000, but this is as best I can do right now.
If you still have it in the Spring after, and if I get my tax refund, we can talk again, but the wine is a better bargain.

OO

Thanks for the offer OO.  I know you Pinot is good, but what I really need is to fill up my checking account and not my stomac.  LOL!
