Thoughts on B&K Reference 7270 Series II - 7 channel Amplifier


I'm looking for a used powerful 7 channel Amp and thought on B&K Reference 7270 Series II.

B&K 7270 Reference II Specs

375 watts RMS x 7 @ 4ohm

THD Rating: 14v/

Original price in 2001 = $3,298

Quick questions:

1-How much is the Amp worth it today and considered as a good deal?

2-In other words what would YOU pay for a fully functioning B&K Reference 7270 today?

Thanks

A 7270, maybe $650.00 to $700.00, the newer 200.7, maybe 800.00 to $900.00.  Both are rock solid amps, built in USA, and powerful.  If ATI still owns them, they will service/repair them.

I did not know that.  I mean I knew ATI bought them and their inventory but was not aware of the troubles.  My experience with B&K has been the same as yours, durable and reliable.  Too bad about the parts scarcity.
