I am selling my Simaudio Moon Evolution W7 solid state stereo power amplifier with the silver faceplate.  I purchased this in November 2015 from Sound Advice in Florida - an authorized Simaudio dealer. 

 

This unit is in excellent condition - not a scratch on it and sonically perfect.  I still have 7.5 years remaining of the factory 10-year warranty.  Everything that came with the product is included in the sale (the amplifier, original factory double-boxes and packing foam, high current power cord, spare fuse, owner manual, spikes and saucers (to protect the surface from the spikes)).  

The serial number is M4513459.  

 

The W7 retailed for $8,900 but was discontinued several years ago.  Their replacement product is the 860A which retails for $15,000.  The W7 was a Stereophile "Class A" solid state power amplifier.  

The output is 150 watts per channel (both channels driven) at 8 ohms and 300 watts per channel at 4 ohms.  

 

All of Simaudio's Evolution products are fully balanced and dual mono solid state designs.  They are exceptionally quiet and built to last (which is why they have a 10 year factory warranty).

Questions for the seller
Hi, Do you happen to have the actual weight of the amp? (Not including packaging). Thanks, -Andy
I don't have the exact weight because I've already repackaged the amp in the box. The double-boxes are pretty substantial - probably 5 - 10 pounds; so I suspect that the amplifier weighs between 75 and 80 pounds.
Thanks for the answering my question. Since I do not have a Paypal account, I will send you a Certified check. Could you provide me the amount which include Fedex shipping, fedex insurance to : 1125 S. Groveland PL, Ca. 92806 Please make sure to include Fedex insurance cost.
$2,699 is the sale price of the amplifier. For another $90, I will have FedEx "triple-box" the amplifier (pack the current Sim box into an outer box) and ship it to you. I will insure it for the full $2,789.00 (which is the amount that you will owe me). Please go into the Audiogon ad and offer $2,699 - the $90 shipping will automatically be added. Mention that you will pay via certified check and submit your offer. I'll review and accept the offer and then we'll be in business. Call my cell if any other questions = (775) 722-6220. Thanks, Tom
