Why is the market for used Levinson amps so slow?

As a previous owner of a 336 (which I absolutely adored) and experienced the capacitor problem, I can sympathize with those who are leery of the 3xx series of amplifiers.

How did the problem manifest itself? Did the amp fail?

The Levinson 300s series is JUNK IMO...I wouldnt want it at any price.Prices on the cheap has nothing to do with the site,its the gear.Good luck with that one.

Interesting perspective. Have you ever owned one?

Irvrobinson ...Are you kidding,lol... but my bro-in-law was an authorized dealer.They had so many returns for warranty work.Compiled with bad customer service from factory and their customers being pissed off at them they dropped the line.Its documented fact the 300 series has/had issues out the yingyang (and has since day one).JUNK!!!If you own one dump it and run,if buying good luck.

One morning I turned it on and there was static on the right channel. I power cycled it a few times, made sure there were no cabling issues, etc and could not get it to stop.

I called the ML support number and they said that more than likely it was a cap failing, which they confirmed and repaired. At the time they were still repairing the amplifiers in-house.
