    Default FS or swap Unison Smart 845 Monoblock power amps

    Looking for £1900 or swap for stereo power amp of approximately the same value. Beautifully made and sound good. In full working order. I do not have the boxes (crates) so collection would be preferable from my home near Hartlepool in the North East. I am happy to video the amps working and to clean the amps with a soap solution prior to hand over which of course would observe social distancing rules. These beatiful beast cannot be entrusted to a courier, sorry. Thanks for looking.

    I would caution against wiping down the amps with bleach. You could cause untold damage to the finishes.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Yes he did indeed. Very sad. He created some beautiful gear. These amps are rather splendid and to be honest if my C5P pre-amp had two pre-out Phono out puts I would keep them and get a more powerful amp to drive the bass with which is why I text you dude. I suppose my other option would be to intergate a sub?

    You could just use Y connectors Steve, which would be the same as a pre with two sets of outputs- all they usually do is wire the second pair in parallel with the first, so electrically the same as using Y connectors.
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”
