Hi Neil
I have been listening to the amps for a while, they appear to have a fault,
an oscilating noise through the speakers that gets progressivly louder the
longer they are left on. Was this apparent when you used them after the
service?
Im sorry to say, but £50 does not really cover the problem, AVI S2000MM of a
1991 vintage are being sold for around £250-£300 private sales.
I feel that as the age was mis-represented, and there apears to be a fault, it is the onus of the seller to
refund.
Regards
Andy
Hello Andy,
I'm sorry to hear this, there was no problem with the amps following the
service - I tested them to see how they sounded. They were also fine before
the service, which I had carried out as I intended to sell them, the report
from Alner Hamblin, whom AVI directed me to send the amps to for service
shows this I seem to remember. I wonder if there was damage in the post and
if so I'll claim from Royal Mail as both packages were covered to £1000 -
let me know if you want to proceed that way and I'll put things in motion.
As for mis-representation that's I feel a little harsh as my description on
ebay was:
"A pair of AVI monoblocs serviced late August this year and used little
since. The service included replacing bank of LEDs on one amp and bringing
both to original spec with 36 hour soak testing. The service reports will be
included with the amps. These sound great with an AVI pre but I have also
used them with DPA, Exposure and Arcam with good effect. Power output is
150W per monobloc into 8 ohms or 225W into 4 ohms. They are well designed
with a clean powerful sound yet are as at home with acoustic music as with
Rock or orchestral. Please email me with any questions. Buyer pays P/P. "
After you bought the amps I replied to the best of my knowledge to your
enquiry about the age - there was absolutely no point in me misrepresenting
anything to you as you had already bought the amps as described - please
check my feedback to verify my ebay history. I offered you £50 as a goodwill
gesture as as I concerned that you were disappointed.
If there is a fault in the amps caused by handling by the post office the
Special delivery insurance cover should cover the repair. Please let me know
how you wish to proceed in this matter.
Best Regards,
Neil
