Bel Canto S300iU Integrated Amp Black

Bel Canto S300iU with black face plate. Amp is brand new and was purchased from an authorized Bel Canto dealer. I purchased the amp a few months ago with plans on using it for a desktop set-up, but later realized that it may be a little over the top (150wpc/8ohms) for a small, near-field, computer set-up. I was tempted to try it out at some point in my main system, but thought it would be best to resist and sell it as a new/unused item.

When I first received the amp, I opened the box to give it a quick look, but never unwrapped the manufacturer sealed plastic bag(s) on anything (amp/remote/etc.). I believe this was the very last, new S300iU available in the U.S.

No low-ball offers/no trades please. I'm not desperate to sell. Zero feedback will be cash pick up only. PayPal payments will ship to PP confirmed/verified address only.

I found the following in my TAS Editors' Choice Awards issue;

March, 2011 Editors' Choice Awards

The S300iU combines a highly transparent and powerful (150Wpc) integrated amplifier with a modular input bay sporting a 24-bit/96kHz USB DAC. The S300iU's amp section sounds superb, providing a tight, punchy, well- defined sound whose immediacy and focus make it a delight, while also delivering enough muscle to drive power-hungry speakers such as Magnepans. The DAC section has terrific rhythmic drive that beautifully conveys the "pulse" and "flow" of music. Reviewed by CM, Issue 200.
