RE: Sherwood S-5500

Looks well used but not abused. The faceplate is starting to show some wear but a careful cleaning and the addition of a clear plastic protector should preserve it as it does not appear the paint has worn through.

Mike, never has a 5500 but understand the difference is it has passive preamp vs active in the 5000. If this is the difference does it not have the potential to actually sound better? If the amp circuits are close could it be modded to be a 5000 power amp with passive preamp? Always wondered about the potential.
