I've been searching for used for about 4 months and haven't found any. However, I did spot a Krell S-300i for considerably less than the Belles that has given me pause.

Suggested Jumpers for Integrated amps?
What the hell was Doug's lesson? The URL is dead. I can't see spending $100 on the Jena Labs Super Jumper!!! I can make it for $35 using Neutrik NF2Cs.

@bigkidz , I wish you would spend some time with John Rutan at Audioconnection. He isn't like a dealer, but a kindred spirit. "He really is! He's even got free used LPs and CDs in the store. He hosted a local meeting of audio nuts, he stopped me...
