Same.
Getting cold feet on this amp thinking I want the black widow instead. Then remember black widow is $600 more.
I keep reading that and it's a terrible supposition.It's audio. Expect to lose 20-25% of the new price when selling used.
I think this amp is the exception to your rule. I'd normally agree, and say maybe your estimate is a bit light. But this is a single batch item, and even if the good doctor decided to produce it again, there will be people that won't want to wait...
won't dictate to others since it's uber rare that any human has heard both LC and BW in the same chain.but will say- don't regret my BW order in place of LC one iota. yah, had to cancel LC order + sell some gear to make the same jump you debate.every night of BW listening just make for a perfect end game night.
500 amps is not that limited of a run and I see MANY people recommending this. With hundreds of owners and many of them trying it out and expecting to recoup their cost by selling it if it's not a fit, do you really think anyone is going to recoup more than $500 of the oriEven the super expensive amps that are made out there in INCREDIBLY limited runs lose significant % value on the used market. I'd recommend anyone who is interested buy it with the intention of owning it. Making a purchase in audio at MSRP and expecting to recoup your investment seems foolhardy at best. The only reason I'm arguing with you is because it's not a good justification for purchasing/owning any amp.I'd still recommend this as a nice, transportable, well priced amp for people looking for one. The Ether sounded pretty nice out of it!
