Is it easier to sell mono blocks or stereo amp on the used market?
I will be buying a new 2 channel McIntosh system soon and I am trying to decide between a 2 mono block amps or a single stereo amp. Curious... if I decided to sell down the road is it easier to sell mono blocks or a single stereo amp on the used market? Was not sure which is more in demand.

It would be the McIntosh MC611 amps. But they really weigh close to the McIntosh stereo amp (forgot the model number) so I am not sure if I can say weight would be a benefit. I am trying to look ahead down the road because I have been prone to changing gear in this hobby.
Looking at Hi Fi shark, it looks like they sell with in about a month of being listed. Am I looking at that correctly? |
@dean_palmer Yes most do want one box and for good rea$on. And many integrated's are superb. I always had an intreated AMP until (and I was never ensorcelled with monos or even thought much about 'em.) But a life long deeper dive into sound reproduction took me finally to Mono Blocks. Blocks are often an audiophile's progressive destination for some, not imagined until they are. Bingo. |
I have dealers that will let me bring home demo gear that I can listen to, but when I'm interested in a brand I'm not sure of compatibility with I'll buy used so if I don't care for the match I can resell at or near my initial cost. Buy a pair of Mc611's used at discount and play them a couple months then keep or resell them. |
