If there is a $1K difference in price I would go with the used unit.
Integra DHC: New or used?
I’m trying to decide between a new Integra DHC 9.9 and a used DHC 9.8. The issue for me is price vs warranty coverage. You can save hundreds on a used item, but Integra does not support warranty transfers. Does anyone have comments on the reliability of the Integra gear? Mostly I’d buy new for the warranty, as the differences between the 9.9 and 9.8 seem pretty minor to me.
