FS: balanced M^3 Amp

I bought this amp from another head-fier on 04-09-2009. It was built by SFT (of SFT audio) in 2007. Strictly premium components and cabling were used throughout. Here is what's inside:

Quad OPA627 opamps
Dual Walt Jung Super Regulator power supplies
Nichicon Muse FX, WIMA, Vishay-Dale RN55
Stepped Attenuator
Bass boost caps are 4 x RIFA PHE426 with a premium bass boost switch.
Silver solder
No discrete capacitors in the signal path (unless bass boost is switched on)
Solid core, high current wiring
Socketed opamps
Thick milled metal chassis
Currently configured for 200-240V power supply
Transformer can be re-wired for 115V operation

The balanced topology provides 4 times the power of the single-ended version!!

It has authoritatively driven GS1000, Edition 9, TakeT H2 (previous owner) and loves my HD-650’s, HF-2, and D7000. The amp sounds incredible, and has always been reliable. I've been forced to to consider selling this gem because of financial issues (got the gf to thank for that...).

As a reference the original new price was $1600 AUD in 2007.

I'm asking $1100 AUD + shipping, which is pretty much what I paid for it initially.

Very sexy amp, and if you attach the ground wire to the output XLR jacks, it would also make a wonderful balanced preamp.
