Selling my beloved Cary
V12i tube amp out of necessity :( If you're familiar with it, you know all the accolades and positive reviews...HUGE soundstage in every respect -
sounds wider and taller than your house on appropriate recordings, but can also give you the impression of how far Diana Krall's lips are from the microphone. Amazing. Carnival red finish is
perfect and has a beautiful deep gloss to it. It's borderline 9/10 condition, but I'll go with 8/10 only due to age. All I can see is a bit of normal wear on the binding posts, and a light scratch on the back of one of the black transformers (difficult to see, even in photos). I took close up photos in very good lighting to show just how great the condition is. You'll be getting Electro Harmonix EL34's and EL84's, and a fancy pair of Genalex 6922's - all tubes only about a year old with VERY little usage. The asking price is fairly firm, considering the good condition and the fact that I paid almost 3K for it as the second owner. Thanks.
