Shanling SP80 EL34 based monoblocks. 50 watts each. $700.00 (negotiable)
These amplifiers also have built in preamps (presently bypassed) that link together and enable a single remote (included) to control both amplifiers and sync volume. These were my primary amplifiers for 3 years and I beleive I am the third owner. Included in the sale is the remote, two quality power chords, bias adapter (fixed bias), 4 SED EL34s, 2 Sylvania 6SN7s, 2 Sylvania 6SL7s. The sound is open, fast and articulate with just a touch of tube sweetness. They produce a beautiful 3D soundstage.
I used them with a separate external preamp, but they can easily be reset to use the internal preamps if a single source is contemplated. 8 ohm and 4 ohm speaker taps.
I do not have the original boxes and due to the weight (80 lbs combined with accessories) I would like to make these available for pickup in North Florida (Jacksonville) or I will be traveling to the Atlanta area over Labor Day weekend.
Specifications:
Rated output power: 50 Watts RMS @ 8 Ohms
Total harmonic distortion (THD+N): < 0.1%
Frequency response at rated power: 20Hz- 30kHz +/- 1db.
Load resistance: 4-8 Ohms.
Signal to noise ratio: >90db.
Input: RCA
Mains power: ~100V ? 120V @ 60Hz.
Line fuse: T2.5 Amp @ 250V A C.
Power consumption: 400W Max.
Dimensions: (mm) 205 W X195 H X 460 D.
Net weight: 15 kg.
Below are some reviews (with pictures), though mine are stock and have not had any of the modifications one review references. I will attempt to get pictures of mine loaded tonight. They are in very good condition except one of the posts has about a 1 degree difference vertically than the other corner posts. Not really noticeable unless you look for it. I will give them a 7/10 for that post, but in reality they look like an 8 on the audiogon scale.

Pictures as promised. The price is for the pair to a forum member. These are an excellent entrance into the rabbit hole for someone daring to venture to the tube side of the world.
