Occasionally browse but use audiogon much more frequently

Thanks! I haven't been on audiogon in years and wasn't familiar with this one. Time for me to rebuild my aging system. Sunfire details ?

I'm running 2 Sunfires in mono (Bi-amp) config., driving 2 (each) Martin Logan's ESL Theos (separate input for main panel and woofer) along with an HSU VTF-1 Mark 2 Sub.
Signal source is Marantz /ClearAudio Designed Reference Series TT 15S1 w/Clearaudio Concept V2 MM Cartridge through the pre-amp of a classic Marantz 2325 receiver.

Thanks Don! Been thinking about this some....
I still have a 4.0t that's been a workhorse, but is tired, and a pair of 1.0t(s) that I fried after a dozen years of hard driving abuse....I like 'em, they work for my setup, time tested. Think I'll look into getting them sorted...they'll drive my vintage Polks just fine bridged mono...and then some

I've got some used Carver and Sunfire gear, amps / pre-amps, sunfire subs that need some PCB work...

PM for a list if interested.
