I'm selling mine to fund the purchase of the newly discounted RR2150...I hope I can get it sold in time! I'm asking $525 on Audiogon. Do you think that's a fair asking price?

And do you think the exchange in hardware is worth it for a 2 channel setup? (listed in sig)?

I may go HT again in the future but by then will go with the 997 or something else HDMI-equipped. In the meantime I want to tickle the 2-channel bone.

This may help...I have owned the 950/7100 and the 1050...I currently (just this week) picked up a mint 1070 and I already own a RR2150...

I think the 1070 is a bump up from the 950 and a significant bump up from the 1050...

As to your price...you are right in the wheelhouse for what I have seen...much lower is a killer price...much higher and you will be keeping it I think...

Now the RR2150...I have several 2 channel rigs to listen to and most are vintage...I have not given up on my Tube rigs...BUT...I will say this...I find the RR2150 to be a clear, articulate, clean sounding 2 channel rig that blends nicely with my Klipsch speakers(I have tried both Reference RB-5 bookshelves and extended Heritage Quartets)... it is worth it at full price and it is a killer deal at it's latest sale price...

2 channel that I also like (for comparison) Nakamichi STASIS...Yamaha Natural Sound CA610 II...EICO HF 81...NOSValves VRDs with a Juicy Music BlueBerry...

hope that helps...
Bill

Well I had to rethink my plan. Sad to say that I had to rethink anything about selling a gift but I'm only human. I did in fact receive the 1070 as a gift and only when I had an offer on it did I realize what a huge mistake I was on the brink of making. I backed off on the sale completely. Kept my 1070 in the living room. Reverted back to a HT in the living room. Converting the office into a 2 channel rig room which I'm really quite pleased with, using my once retired but quite adequate RV-X750 as my "new" "stereo" receiver. New set up in the signature now...I think my wife will be conspiring on the RR2150 for a birthday surprise. I'll be patient and be glad I didn't make a huge moral screw up smile Party on 1070... smile

Now that the Denon is my source in the 2 channel, I think the BDP-83 is the next logical choice. I think I've held out long enough on the BluWave and my 7.1 analog inputs are all freed up on the 1070...

I hear you, RedSI. But hey, I'm sure you're not the first one to "lose their mind" at the sight of that RR 2150 deal. And I'm also sure the Outlaws are counting on that. laugh

I use my 1070 for surround and HT only. I have it into an Anthem MCA 5 II amp. My Tube based system is for music.

Tru, send me an message to discuss the club I am now president.
