For context, the Cambridge Audio Azur 851A retailed new for around NZ$2,800–3,200 when released, making it Cambridge Audio's flagship integrated amplifier at the time. It's a discontinued model now, which if anything adds to its desirability. I'm looking for closer to NZ 1250 — happy to chat if you'd like to make a revised offer.
