FS: Acurus A250 solid state power amp.
250wpc into 8 ohms.
Good condition - a slight scrape mark on the top panel. Works fine.
As this AA review says http://www.audioasylum.com/reviews/Amplifier-SS/Acurus/A250/general/23067.html "The amp is open, clean and has stunning attack on transients". Yup, I agree with that. Some comments follow that review saying the amp is a bit bright sounding - I don't agree at all. It just tells it how it is, I suspect any 'bright' comments are down to the sheer transient speed of the beast.
Compared to my bi-amped Behringer A500 amps, the sound is a bit faster as well a bit better focussed and catches the leading edges better. Also said to drive tricky loads with ease.
Why am I selling? Well, it's what I do :) - I just like to try different things - and I've just fallen in love with valves all over again!
As always - what I paid is what I sell for on the forum - £250 + £8 DHL shipping. A real bargain, imho.

Would go really well with my JBL Ti2K standmount speakers http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?t=4182! :rock: ;)
