Hidden Gems in Pre-Owned Solid State Power Amplifiers?


Browse the listings for power amplifiers (e.g. under $5K) and you notice a myriad of Classe, Parasound, Bryston, older McIntosh and Mark Levinson and lots of Pass Labs.
So many in fact that you wonder why.
What are the true audiophile gems in the pre-owned solid state market? Thanks in advance.

I'm with Bigkidz here. They are all for sale for a reason. "That new girl you just met? Someone somewhere is glad that she's gone!"

Could be he/she had commitment issues and you lucked into a winner!
