This is a sale for my Icon Audio ST 40i SE amp.

Has....

Sylvania NOS 12AT7 and Sovtek 6L6wxt output valves giving 30 watts per channel.

This amp can use 6550 and KT88 valves for 40 watt output or 6L6gc, EL34 or KT66 for 30 watt output.

It has been upgraded and improved with Mundorf high quality power suppy caps, Mills resistors, Mundorf Siver Gold Oil audio caps.

Also has a TDK volume pot added to replace the Blue Alps with a massive improvement in detail and sound stage.

In fantanstic clean and full working condition.

The 6l6 and 12ax7 valves are new and the 12at7 is around 3 years old.

Comes with instruction sheets and will be double boxed and sent with UPS.

Personal collection most welcome from Torquay Devon.

I have a real soft spot for this early (first?) Icon model .. point to point wired, Japanese-made mains and output transformers if I recall correctly ... triode/pentode switchable.

Lovely with Quads or Tannoys.  I imagine the component upgrades made quite a difference too.

The upgrades have made a big improvement in sound quality.

Point to point wiring makes it very easy to service or upgrade.
