Had Don Sachs Kootenay. Drove a couple hours to pick it up. When I went to lift it to carry to the car was a little shocked. Money had passed hands. If I drop it it’s not going to be a good day. Had a fairly long walk through a big house down a walk way then down the drive way. Not a huge amp but very dense. Didn’t want to hear or see that little wood in closure hitting the concrete, part everywhere. If it did I quest I would have ask to borrow a broom and dust pan to clean my mess up and take my parts home in a garbage bag. My mom always told me to clean up after myself at strangers homes.

I had a McIntosh AMP, MC2250, 250wpc, 80lbs.
I lifted it out of a low shelf in a tight space, felt a 3rd meniscus tear in my 'bad' knee while lifting.
