Would you believe I was the last person to buy a PQ20 from Ebay!!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=220176931566

I was very lucky with this one.
The amp is preteen….looks like it just came out of the box!


Are the amp boards the same? = NO.
Are the PQ10s much easier to find? =YES
Would a (2X)-PQ 10s run 2 channels to each side of a component set be awesome? = YES (you would need to be able to configure the XO to run the tweeter from a single channel….would not be too hard…plus you could have a separate gain control for the tweeter/ woofer……)


If you have your heart set on a 20….good luck, it took me a while to find one.

The only better sounding amps have the word McIntosh on them.

Default ADS PQ20

Got one if you're still interested.
Worked perfectly last time I had it in use ('94 Bronco in college) and it's been sitting in a closet since then.

Email back.

I had no idea that those were worth so much. Some one gave me one a few years ago along with a Nakamichi amp and Nak subs. He wanted to make his BMW lighter and just had a pile of this stuff in the corner of his garage that he had ripped out.

I'll definitely have to give it a go in my next build and see what the fuss is about.

Hi GT,

They originally sold for MUCH more than what I paid on eBay. The amps are very clean, with a very low noise floor and as long as you don't hook up some insane load, they will last forever.

smiles,
Jamie

Jamie, it is rare as you know to find a PQ20 that clean!

I have 2 PQ20s and love'em.

Even if you paid the buy it now @ 350$ the amp is wayyyy worth it!

I paid 225 and 250 for my PQs but they do have a few little dings and maybe a scratch (still very nice).

FUnny how the PQ20 is selling for 250-400 and the PH15 is selling for upwards to 900! IMO the PQ is a better choice for most apps. So what if you have 6 channels with a PH, for that money you could buy 2 PQ20 and have 8!!!
(that is sort of what I did less I have mine bridged on a set of Dynas!).
