The amplifier is up for sale as it is now surplus to requirements, having bought some monoblock tube amps.
I bought this around 4 months ago as I wanted to try a bridged mono setup with my other SE-A900 power amp. The set-up worked very well but the spaghetti junction of cables didn't go down very well with my wife!! Anyhow, the new tube monoblocks force a sale as I really don't have room for all my gear.
The amp has work faultlessly and is in decent condition however, there are a few age related scratches and marks etc.
The VU meter bulbs are renowned for blowing on these amp but the previous owner had already replaced the VU bulbs with modern LED's, which have a rather attractive blue light, so there are no worries about the bulbs going anytime soon.
The specs are as follows:
Power output: 70 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo)
Frequency response: 5Hz to 70kHz
Total harmonic distortion: 0.01%
Damping factor: 70
Input sensitivity: 1V
Signal to noise ratio: 110dB
Speaker load impedance: 4Ω to 16Ω
Dimensions: 430 x 136 x 344mm
Weight: 9.8kg
Lots of reviews, videos and information on the tinterweb.
I believe these amps generally sell for around £400 - £500 with the matching pre-amp, I paid £300 but am only asking £250. Cash on collection from Manchester and demo welcome.
I have boxes (not original) and packing material, so I am happy to ship at the buyers expense.
