Sean Posted April 7 Posted April 7 I just spotted this. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335754368078?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=rpbRlok9T1C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=6MnoMIQiQQC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY 2 year warranty. They're big and heavy but they're truly awesome. It's a properly scary amp. One of the few valve amps that has both valve and solid state preamps. It's an absolute bargain IMO. Straight from the manufacturer. 5 Quote
AttitudeCastle Posted April 7 Posted April 7 Absolute bargain! These are seriously monster amps and the matching cabs were stellar (still rocking my Nexus 410). Can't justify an amp this heavy these days myself but boy that's a cracking deal for someone! Shame it's not the FET version I'd have snapped it up by now, hah! Quote
d-basser Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Very tempting, valves alone must nearly be worth that 1 Quote

That's based on JJs, you could go 8x Gold Lion KT88 @ £80 = £640. Plus some spendy preamp valves taking the valves up to a total of £800+ Then you've got the labour on top at prob £200. It's a veritable bargain. It's cheaper for me to buy this than to revalve the one I have. Edited April 12 by Sean Quote
Dan Dare Posted April 14 Posted April 14 My God. What a beast. Eight KT88s. I don't want it. I really don't want it. I positively don't want it. No, really. I don't. Quote
