• If you go for the Crowns I'd give them a good clean. As they are PA Amps and possibly from a club/small touring system there is going to be a lot of smoke fluid residue in them.

    And as mentioned before the fans in them can be noisy, not obviously a problem when the speakers are blasting loud music out but certainly audible at low volume.

  • Good tips. I’d be buying them new if I went for them but good to know if I do ever buy pro kit used. As for the fans, by all accounts the amp is never driven hard enough at domestic levels to trigger them.

    I may have got drunk and pulled the trigger on a £800 SVS 12” subwoofer used for £350. Irrational times.

    great beer purchase - well done!

    Probably the nicest set up i've had was a pair of Cyrus CLS70s and a huge B&W subwoofer. Sounded great but was hard to "integrate" into family living.
