Just test the goddamn amp before you sell it, it's not that hard. At least see if it turns on. By saying "it worked the last time I used it", you are pretty much saying it's blown. Grab a battery, or battery charger. Run wires off the power, ground, and remote. Twist the power and remote together, and touch them to the positive terminal (or positive clamp of the battery charger). Then, touch the ground to the negative terminal or clamp. If the battery has at least 12.8v of charge left on it, it should turn on. It may or may not turn on with the battery charger, so don't discredit it if you hook it up to one and it doesn't. Most of my MTX amps won't turn on when I hook them up to a charger, only to a battery.

I used to have one of these bnib, but it wouldn't turn on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Could have been the fact that I only tested it on a battery charger...

Thanks for the tip, I'll test it when I get a chance.

I know this amp works and I'll be testing it to confirm. How much do you think its worth if not $50?

 

[Suicide Bobb 5,000+ posts]

$50-$75 is a good target for that amp in that condition in this economy. Given a better economy, you would probably be able to get up to $100 out of it.

If you want it to sell quickly, leave the price where it stands. Those with $50 would be stupid to pass this up if they are looking for such an amp. If you gave it a $75 pricetag, expect to wait a week or two for it to sell. You could also try $60 for a good medium.

nice lil amp here. love these mtx and the thunder series before them.

 

[king nothing 10+ year member]

I think 50 is about right for a nice 250x. Id give 50 for a 250, 75 for a 275, 100 for a 2150, and 150ish for a 2300

I sold my 2300 local for $250

I'd die for a 2300 to run sub duty...I love the look of those so much. I had a couple of 2075's, sold them for 80-100 each.
