The listing below is only a small sample of the used audio equipment we have in stock, which changes on a day to day basis. Since most of our used stuff is one-of-a-kind merchandise all the gear listed here is subject to prior sale. We'll try to keep this list updated regularly to avoid problems, but if you see anything you're hot for, call us or come in and grab it, 'cause as the saying goes "If You Snooze, You Lose." It's worth looking at the prices again even if a piece was on the page last time you visited since sometimes we'll drop prices on pieces that have been around awhile. It's also not a bad idea to reload the page if the date seems old since your browser might pull a copy out of its cache instead of showing you the most current update.

The "O" column is for Operating Condition and the "C" column is for Cosmetic Condition. All the ratings numbers for cosmetics are on a scale of 1 to 5, with the ratings as follows:

1-Excellent, no scratches or marks

2-Very Good, Maybe a fine scratch or two but no major defects.

3-Good, A few scratches or nicks here or there.

4-Fair, A little banged up but not downright ugly.

5-Poor, ridden hard and put away wet.

As far as condition ratings go, most will always be a 1 since if a unit doesn't work right we don't want to sell it. If you see a lower number it's because something's not functioning correctly on the unit but we don't want to total it because it's not a fatal flaw. Give us a call and we'll let you know the reason.

If it seems as if most cosmetics are 1's or 2's, it's because we try to only put out good equipment, and we've got limited space here to list stuff so we'll try to list the cleanest and most interesting gear.

The "Year" column lists the first year a unit was is production. If there is a second number, that's the year it was discontinued. If there isn't a second number it doesn't mean the unit's still in production, though that's possible. It might just mean we don't know when it was discontinued.

The warranty on all used stereo gear is 90 Days Parts and Labor unless otherwise marked in the Warr. column, and you have the option of trading any guaranteed piece back for the full purchase price for the same 90 days.
