Torii MKIII

FYI, there is a nice looking Torii MKIII on ebay for anyone in the market.  Pelican case and "Best Offer."  Others can tell if this is a great deal but it sure looks pretty.   Smiley

Sad to imagine how much "Mountain Hi-Fi" took it in trade for. Probably spit. It has been out there for a while. They're not serious about moving it; just trolling for offers.

This is the first I saw it on ebay.  Do you have any idea what they might take?  I have a brother in the market.  What are Torii IIIs worth?

I'd offer $1200 and settle at $1500.

$1500 is fair?  Given some of your posts I don't know if you're pulling my leg!   Grin

That's far too low in my opinion. I'll have one for sale soon.

Lon, I thought the only way you'd give that up was to pry it from your cold dead fingers!  LOL

Hey, I have two! And a Torii Mk II! The last six weeks or so I've been listening to the Taboo Mk IV and realizing that I love the SEP sound. . . and I have a pair of the 25th Anniversary Monoblocks on order. So I'm going to sell one of the Mk IIIs (and keep one, til my hands go dead!) and my Mk II and my Eddie Vaughn modded C amp and one or two CSP2+ preamps. I've got too much stuff, and don't have the need (nor the spousal permission) for multiple systems any longer.

I love the Mk III and won't part with both of them. But I don't need two.

Ha Ha, well, keep us posted.  One of my brothers seems interested in getting into Decware but the new prices hold him back.  A Torii MkIII would be a great way to go.

Always bid low, you don’t know if the other party knows what they have.
Truthfully $22-2500 would be about right.
Sometimes lowballing gets what you want.

That looked like a nice amp and a nice price too.  Anybody here buy it?
