I’m selling, as a combined unit or in parts, Musical Fidelity's 20th Anniversary Limited Addition components.  These are the electronics noted in a previous add "lisa6i05" that have been powering a pair of Sonus Fiber Elipsa speakers.

The Pre-AMP, its PSU, 2 monobloc AMPs (and their PSU) and the Shunyata Hydra were purchased in 2005 by my neighbor’s husband for his listening room (seen in picture).  Unfortunately, he is now in a care facility due to degrading health and his wife needs to sell this equipment to help recoup any value.  All items have been well cared for in a pet-free and smoke-free home in a dedicated audio room.  They have all original boxes, so all items will be shipped properly.

 Items: 

  • Musical Fidelity 20th Anniversary, Limited Addition, Tri-Vista kWP (Pre-Amp) and accompanying PSU and Block remote.
  • Musical Fidelity 20th Anniversary, Limited Addition, Tri-Vista kW Monobloc (2) assembly with Class-A driver stage, included with their own dedicated PSU.
  • Shunyata Research Hydra Model 8 Power Conditioner
  • All interconnect cables (as seen) and in use. Includes speaker cables too. Elevated blocks (ceramic) will be included, if buyer would like them.
  • Satori Speaker Cables (10AWG, 6N Zero Crystal Copper) 
NOTE: CD player is seen in photos; however, it has sold.

Conditions:

  • Tri-Vista kWP Pre-amplifier and PSU (9/10). Includes block remote that is fully functioning.
  • Tri-Vista kW Monoblocs and PSU: Left side Monobloc left (9/10). Right side Monobloc right (6/10).  As seen in photos (photo 5 and 9), there is one small pit mark on the front that is hardly visible beyond 2 or 3 feet and a small scratch on the top, also in the photo. Finally, this amplifier has been repaired by a MF certified repair facility.  Several years ago it had its capacitors replaced, so it was mailed to the facility, repaired, tested and mail back. It has been fully working now for at lest 2 years without issue. PSU is flawless. Because of this I've discounted the AMP values significantly from their original purchase price.
  • Shunyata Hydra Model 8 Power Conditioner (9/10)
  • Remote (8/10) just because it's touched when in use.
  • Satori Speaker Cables (10AWG, 6N Zero Crystal Copper) (8/10)

Shipping I estimate shipping to be between $700 and $900 to U.S. buyers. Each monoboc alone is 94 lbs and with their PSU, nearly 300 lbs for amplification.  I will NOT charge extra, just actual so take these estimates as just that.  Due to their weight, all will be loaded on a pallet for shipping and insurance reasons.

Cables: All interconnects, power cables, etc that it currently uses to run will be included in the purchase. Speaker cables as well—unless you want to use your own setup.  Please advise as the current cable is valued at $500 and $800 new.

Asking price:

All prices were depreciated over of 55% or more from original sale price. Monbloc 2 was reduced 67% due to 7/10 condition rating (see above)
