I was not in a position to afford the recent RX-V2700 Group Buy even though it was a a great price as I needed to spend quite a bit less on a receiver and have always wanted to get an RX-V659.

I called the same retailer in Brisbane as Andrew went through for the 2700 GB and he would be willing to do an outstanding price on the 659.

If you are interested in an excellent price on a 659 then PM me with your expressions of interest and if I get a decent response I will set-up a GB on this product. As always, I will not discuss price on the open forum directly.

Thanks.

apologies, didnt mean to, i was just leaning towards a recommendation group buy of a different receiver

I just want to confirm, this GB will not be for the 661, this GB will be for the 659 as the price for the 659 will be considerably better than the 661 and IMO better value for my situation. I did consider opening the GB up to any Yamaha model but decided that the admin overhead of trying to haggle on 5 or 6 different models with a few people for each was not viable.

I have researched which AVR is best suited to my needs and that is the 659 as it provides and outstanding 7CH HT as well as 2CH experience for the price. I believe that the 659 is one of the best selling of any AVR for this very reason. I dont want to get into the differences and benefits of each model here, so if you have already made your mind up on the 659 then let me know and I am sure you will be pleasantly surprised at the deal that we may be able to put on the table!

Thanks

and discussing the capabilities of the item that is part of the GB is definitely on topic. Unless we are returning to 1940's Germany ????

Correct,discussing the capablities of the item for the GB is on topic. I was referring to questions pertaining to other items of equipment other than that in question that just confuse the thread.

Just trying to help Bertz and his GB. They are hard enough to organise at the best of times i am sure.

Yes I have seen this. I am expecting to do a better price than this secondhand one.

Cheaper than that on an amp that retails for $1000??? :blink: Sure You can get it JB for around the $900 ish mark but getting a new one for less that $750. Unless they fell of the back of a truck you'd be getting an unbeliable deal. Good luck though.

from memory someone here sent his wife into HN and picked up a 659 for $800 brand new, pretty good deal i thought

Twas I, and the ever so lovely Mrs byte that did the deal.

Deal Done Here

I would think a very good price could be had with a GB as this was a one of purchase with nothing else added to it so good luck with the GB. :blink:

Due to the imminent arrival of 661, the 659 is in "run out" status. Availbale brand new for $699 from here:

Excel Hifi 659B

These are not new amplifiers. It has the disclaimer saying that items not brand new unless specified and there is no mention of them being new on the page that i can see.

Yes 659 is in runout status.

Excel normally sell seconds and refurbished items. I have not checked if this ad is for new or not but expect that these are refurbished.

Quote from this site - "We do not sell brand new items, unless stated otherwise" and I did not see a reference on this page to item being new?

Nonetheless, I hope to be able to get a better price than this anyway!
