US48 Only.

I am the Original Owner. Purchased as a Demo from an Authorized Dealer. Although it sounded great stock, had the unit upgraded to Level 2 by Parts ConneXion. I have since tried many integrateds and separates, ARC, BAT, etc. Nothing ever satisfied me like this unit so it has stayed the centerpiece of my system.

Unit is in perfect operating condition and very good cosmetic condition...there are a few rubs on bottom and top.

This unit has incredible power, musicality, etc. I hate to say it...because it's over used ~ But this amp the most tubelike Solid State I have ever heard, at any price.

You will not get this performance at ANYWHERE near this price.

Here are the Level-2 Upgrades:

(The cost of the upgrade was $1600 - Upgrade receipt will be included )

-One sheet of SoundCoat chassis damping material cut and applied where applicable

-Eighteen Audio Note Tantalum ½ watt signal resistors are added in the signal path

-Sixteen Black Gate N, NX, FK and C-Series electrolytic capacitors are used in various input, output and power supply locations

-Eight polystyrene film and tin foil 1% film capacitors used in various filter locations

-Two Multicap PPMFX series 0.22uf metalized polystyrene caps are used in the Zobel network

-Two dual Burr Brown OPA-627 op amp modules (on DIP daughter boards), the world's best audio op amps, replace the inexpensive opamps of the stock amp.

-Eight International Rectifier Hexfreds and Four Vishay-Telefunekn ultra-fast, soft recovery diodes are used to rebuild the bridge rectifiers

-One sheet of ERS EMI/RFI suppression paper applied in critical locations

-Two feet of DH LABS 23awg “Revelation series” pure 99.999% silver solid core input signal wire, with Teflon tape-wrap dielectric

-Three feet of Connex BL-AG pure silver “shielded” interconnect cable

-Three feet of Neotech 18awg UP-OCC solid-core copper output signal wire

-One pair of premium Vampire “direct gold plated over copper body” RCA female jacks are added

-One pair of Cardas dual Rhodium over copper binding posts replace the cheap brass posts of the stock unit

-One Acme Audio Cryo silver IEC AC inlet is added

-Ten feet TRT WonderSolder used throughout

-9 hours labor
