I have a rare, limited-production Genesis I60 integrated amplifier for sale. These amps were designed and produced by Gary Koh of Genesis to prove a point. Genesis made no money on them, selling at $3500/piece, so they were sold out quickly and no further production run was planned. You can read all the rave reviews about this amp, but some of the quality features are:
• Superb build quality
• Point-to-point hand-soldered connection with solid core silver wires
• Active pre-amp section
• Dead quiet. Clarity, resolving, and refined sound
This amp will come with original Melody KT-88’s power tubes (about 350 hours), military-spec S67N’s, and Telefunken signal tubes for best sound. I had compared it to Rotel RB-1090, Parasound A21, Rogue Cronus Magnum, and this one won them all. It sounds very close to Cary SLI-80 F1 Signature. If you want clarity, resolving and refined tube sound, I don’t think you will go wrong with this amp. Manual, original packing and double-box will be included.
See excerpt below from hometheatherhifi.com.
“I suspect my feelings are clear. I love the sound of the Genesis I60 integrated tube amplifier. It conveys all the benefits of tube amplification, with virtually none of the drawbacks. With its 60 watts per channel being most compatible with higher efficiency speakers and/or smaller rooms, it seems perfect for most real world setups.
In a world where so many go without food each day, I'm reluctant to call anything that costs in the thousands a bargain. Nonetheless, given the quality of the sound, and the fact that it comes from a U.S. company with a long track record for quality, the ratio of quality to price is extremely high. Given that these amps were produced in limited numbers, I would urge those who hear the call to act without delay.”

Questions for the seller |
---|
How do you bias the power tubes on this amp? I used a $9.99 multimeter from Fry's. The measuring points are on both side of the amp. All externally. No need to remove any cover or screws. |
Hello, does it work in 220v? or is it convert easily?
Thanks, Eric Sorry, I don't know if it can be converted for 220V. |
