The Stellar M700 pair is a respected, high-power monoblock setup, and US$2,199 is essentially right on the money versus your recent comps. It sits exactly at the median and just above the 25th percentile, so this reads as fair pricing, not a bargain and not ambitious.
What makes it worth a look is the combination of 700 W into 4 ohms, easy drive, and the “big amp” control it brings without running scorching hot; that’s a strong fit for demanding speakers. If the listing is complete and clean, the value is solid, especially for a well-kept pair from a careful owner. At this price, I’d mainly confirm cosmetic condition, channel balance, and that both monoblocks include the usual cables/accessories before moving quickly.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
PS Audio, a pioneering American hi-fi brand, traces its roots to 1973 when co-founder Paul McGowan launched the company in California alongside Stan Warren. Emerging from the analog golden age, it debuted with a standalone phono preamplifier, reflecting McGowan's early passion for vinyl playback honed through radio station connections and encounters with audio enthusiasts. The brand quickly evolved, embracing digital audio in the 1980s by releasing one of the first high-end CD players, the PS Audio CD-1, soon after Philips and Sony introduced the format.
Today, PS Audio specializes in premium electronics, including power amplifiers, preamplifiers, digital-to-analog converters (DACs), and integrated amplifiers, with a hallmark focus on power conditioning via innovative AC regenerators known as Power Plants. These devices, born from Stan Warren's mid-1980s discovery that oversized transformers enhance audio performance, remain a cornerstone. The lineup also encompasses digital lenses for refining streaming and disc playback, alongside select analog components, though it eschews speakers, headphones, turntables, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, PS Audio commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its bold engineering and unwavering pursuit of musical purity. Celebrating 50 years in 2023, it occupies a niche as an innovator rather than a mass-market player, appealing to buyers who prioritize transformative power delivery and digital refinement in sophisticated systems.
