Enlightened Audio Design Theatermaster Ovation Processor - Price Reduced

I’m selling one Enlightened Audio Designs (EAD) TheaterMaster Ovation Processor with power cord included. I also have a digital copy of the manual, which I can send to the buyer via email. This state of the art processor delivers incredible sound quality and ease of use.  To read about the quality of this processor, check out a review by clicking here.

 This piece of equipment retailed at ~$5000. I’m selling it for $550. Why the steep discount?

1) It’s older – while the technology and sound quality is still top of the line, obviously sound tech has advanced over the last 16 years.

2) I don’t have a remote – the perils of having a small nephew who thinks everything is a baseball. I have been in contact with the EAD team which sells a new remote for $260 and they program it to the processor. I have the manual for the remote and would be happy to send it to potential buyers, as well as the contact information for the EAD team.
3) I’m downsizing – it’s been a great run but it’s time to scale back my setup.
