Breakdown7 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 NOS Valves VRD Stereo amplifier for sale in good condition. Great sounding amp, for those unfamiliar. 45 watts/channel ultra-linear and 30 watts/channel in triode. It is switchable on the fly with toggle switches just behind the outside small signal tubes. The previous owner labeled the tube positions with a label maker, and I decided to leave them. They will easily peel off if you so desire. I am including a new quad of Electro-Harmonix KT-88's with about 20 hours on them. The rectifiers are new production Ruby 5AR4's, the 12AU7's are JJ's and the 12AX7's are Electro-Harmonix. I do have a copy of the manual. The last pic shows a couple dings on the transformer covers behind where the output tubes sit.

Schu Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 It probably depends on the tube compliment... I don't see the triode/ultra linear switch. I would hazard a guess its right around 22watts with 88's in it... more than enough for any Heritage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeeper Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The triode/ultra switch's are right behind the 12au7 tubes, ( outside signal tubes ) The amp is rated @ 45 watts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakeydeal Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I just picked up one of these recently and it is a fantastic amp and yours is a good price, someone will enjoy it very much. GLWS Shakey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakdown7 Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share Posted January 26, 2021 Good morning guys. Thanks to fellow members for adding some details in the comments. I listed this for sale late last night; I should have put the details in the listing for those unfamiliar. I'll do that now... The amp is rated at 45 watts/channel ultra-linear and 30 watts/channel in triode. It is indeed switchable on the fly with toggle switches just behind the outside small signal 12AU7 tubes. If you look closely at the last picture you will see the switches. Let me know if you have further questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driverdog Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Oh man! Bad timing for me, or I would have jumped on this sale! Best of luck, this should make someone very happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacemaker Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Anyone used this Amp with La Scala's? I'm considering it... It would be my first tube Amp. Is it too much for a tube newb like me? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjs11 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I have some interest in this amp but am a newer member and looks like I am not able to send private messages. How can I communicate with you without everything being posted publicly? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
