For sale are a pair of Forte Model 7 class A monoblock amplifiers with the complete Soderberg (Vintage Amp Repair) upgrade treatment and servicing preformed just over two years ago. I have priced these at what they normally sell for without being serviced or upgraded. These rarely show up for sale and even less so after being serviced by Jon Soderberg who is a former tech for Threshold and Forte. The Model 7 is the monoblock version of the more common and very well reviewed Model 4. Rated class A power output is 75 watts 8 ohms, 150 watts 4 ohms and 225 watts 2 ohms. Forte was the sister line to Threshold, but without the expensive case work. As you can see in the pictures, there are a few scratches on the top that have been touched up. The original boxes are not included, but they will be very well packed. There are more pictures of the amps along with a picture of the work receipt up at usaudiomart.com.
The details for the $1500 in upgrades are:
New Main Power Caps
Cardas Binding Post
Blackgate Caps
IXYS Rectifiers
Ground circuit Mod
AC Input Modules
RCA Jacks
