$499 brand new. I miracled myself into a slightly better deal with a B-stock unit, merely as a function of good/bad timing. I'll fess up now, I was eyeballing the thing for awhile, but the amp dying pushed me to shop. The B-stock sale prompted me to buy now, rather than later.

B-stock can mean anything from repaired to returned to scratch and dent, etc. I've bought most of my gear as B-stock, floor demo, or used.

In this case I saved $100 off the retail price, but it comes with the very same 5-year warranty.

It came out of the box, clean, polished, no sign of prior use and not a scratch on it. If there's a b-stock sale again (or for any product from a reputable vendor) I say jump on it.
