What is it about the Cary SLI-80?

I've been wondering for some time now why I see so many Cary SLI-80 int. amps for sale on Audiogon? I've considered getting one for myself because of all the positive things I've read about them, but am I missing something? Naturally, a seller isn't going to register disappointment with the amp. Am I just imagining things or is there something about this amp that leads owners to get rid of them more frequently than average? Or do I just notice them more when they are for sale, since I've been interested in them? I haven't ruled them out for me, yet. Just suspicious that they might not live up to the hype. Help me out. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to harm anyone's reputation, just after some experienced feedback. I owned Cary monoblocks once and loved their sound. Thanks.

>I'd say if your snorting or burning the rock your audio gear (and your car,house,and wife and kiddies) will all be down the pike soon anyway.Unless your Kieth Richards circa 1973. or one of Maddow's clients who goes to his local ATM in Zurich.Maybe it's better to describe it as the test monkeys experience with drug administered orally or having it wired into brain (I was with my father wh0o was a physician and saw a monkey in a cage with amtal block with wired going into his head as a 7 years old and it really freaked me out.Now I think "hey maybe that's better than a pair of Stax headphones).Man what you guys really tell your kids what the 60's was like and YOU did must be some poack of .........<

As usual with Chazz I just have to say HUH?!?!?!?!?!?
