tlarwa Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Really nice pair of 45 monoblocks built by Alan Eaton. Good review on his stereo version here: http://glowinthedarkaudio.com/alan-eaton-se45.html. Sound excellent on my 97dB folded open baffle speakers. These were my first exposure to the 45 tube, and I'm sold. Point to point wiring, copper ground buss, Tamura OPTs ... a virtually identical pair recently sold on the auction site by the builder for $1400. See his description here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Single-ended-vintage-45-mono-block-tube-amplifiers-Tamura-output-transformers/184522957962?hash=item2af66ce48a:g:j6QAAOSwk4JfpInk. I am including a pair of National Union 45 tubes, 2 pairs of 6SN7 tubes and a pair of 6AX5GT tubes. I'm also including red and blue lamps (came with red, and I bought blue to match the rest of my system) and a brand new pair of Cardas CCBP-S brass speaker terminals (that cost me $80) that I was going to swap out for the stock terminals but never found the time to do. No power cords included. I will pick up UPS shipping costs to the CONUS. Amps will ship in two boxes. I am around until the 22nd, after that I won't be able to ship until the 28th or so. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll answer them to the best of my ability. I have a bunch of photos that I am happy to email to you ... just send me a PM with your email address. Amps (and me) are located in SE WI (Lake Geneva). Buyer is welcome to pick them up locally. Buyer to cover PP fees (3%). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcmusic Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Just curious if you are sold on the 45 tube why the sale? Are you going to another 45 amp, if so which one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in my system now, and have a very similar sound to the Eaton amps. I'm a habitual system tweaker, so it's not unusual for me to make changes on a whim! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok thanks for the reply I was just curious, as I run a 45 amp as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlarwa Posted December 19, 2020 Author Share Posted December 19, 2020 I'd also consider a partial trade for a good MM or MC cartridge with plenty of life left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontknow Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I have a pair of Alan Eaton's 45's and LOVE them. Right now I'm testing the Sophia 45 tubes with them and so far they're very impressive! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
