flatgrass Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I purchased this back in June because I needed a few more watts for my bookshelf speakers. Hooked it up the first weekend I had it, sounded great then put it away until the fall. My non-A/C treated basement listening room relegates the tube amp usage roughly late Sep through early May. Since then, situation and discussions at work have led to the expectation I will probably be working from the house at least through next spring. And bets are off that it may even be longer. With that in mind, I am looking to beefing up / improving my desk headphone situation. So, this is on the chopping block to begin the cash generation for headphone set up. I have several photos, front and rear if interested. Let me know and I can send PM or email. Joe had it before me and does a better review than I can. Anyway, $1000 and split shipping in the 48. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjptkd Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 This is very tempting I have the dressed down original Carverfest version and it's a great amp... hopefully someone will buy this quick I'm supposed to be "downsizing" my collection not adding to it!

Nowadays you can pick up a 275 new for 2750? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flatgrass Posted January 13, 2021 Author Share Posted January 13, 2021 I guess the drive-by member had a fleeting interest. I had pulled it out over the New Year's weekend and it sounded really nice. If a regular forum member is really interested, send a PM and I bet we could work something out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travesty Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Hi Flatgrass. I have been looking for a good entry-level tube amp to match up with my Heresy 3's for about three months. Sorry, yes, I am a newbie, but not a driveby. Very interested in this amp if you still have it. It received great reviews. Can't send you a PM because I do not have that privilege on this forum. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
