This will be a sale that I will regret but I need funds for another hobby I am diving into and I have 3 amps in the closet that I can use in its place (although they are not nearly as good).
I bought this amp for Mike (brgman) a couple of months ago and it is minty inside and out. It is an absolutely heavy beast, so shipping won't be cheap and please make sure your rack/stand can hold it. This was my first tube amp and it was an absolute joy. It was a "flesh on bones" type of sound that made everything sound more real and natural without any loss of detail from top to bottom.
From Mike:
2 Channel Tube Amplifier with best mods offered by Rogue.
9/10 just because it's not new.Original box and manual.Amp is in minty condition inside and out.
Mods added by Rogue from site--
Stereo 90 ($695)
- Hex Fred diodes in bias supply
- Screen grid resistors upgraded
- Polypropylene bypass capacitors in filters
- Bypass coupling caps
- PRP resitors in all critical spots
- Cardas binding posts
- Cardas RCA jacks (ST90 only)
- Upgraded wiring
- Upgraded small signal tubes
- KT90 output tubes THIS COMES WITH MATCHED QUAD OF KT120's
I will sell it for the same deal I got. $1750.00
It will weigh about 75lbs to ship and I'll pay half the shipping cost.
Will ship in CONUS only. It will be listed on the 'gon & craigslist tomorrow.

Willing to let members with a good reputation here make 3-4 payments on this amp.

WoW, now that is awesome that you would offer that. I did that once on a purchase and it went very well. 1) it secured the item, 2) it made payment SO much more easy.
I'm at the HT/2 CH crossroads myself. No room for two systems right now but I might be moving next year...just not sure. Thinking about starting the building process for a 2 ch or cashing out on the HT? Just not sure? A Rogue piece is for sure in my future. Would love to try this unit...but still think a SS amp and tube pre is the route I want to take. Maybe I might like a 105 going direct to a tube amp? Who knows?
Anyway, someone take advantage of this payment plan! Not many will offer this.2.2 Office Setup | LG 29UB55 21:9 UltraWide | HP Probook 630 G8 | Dell Latitude | Cabasse Stream Amp 100 | Boston Acoustics VS 240 | AUDIORAX Desk Stands | Mirage Omni S8 sub1 | Mirage Omni S8 Sub2 -

I've done this quite a few times here so I'm just repaying the favor
You'll love anything by Rogue. Have heard 4 or 5 of their pieces now and it's all great sounding stuff. I wouldn't run the Oppo 105 directly to the amp. With my 3 amps, it hasn't worked. For me it was mainly a huge loss in dynamics. I have read about many people trying this and some believe it's the best route (one less component), but I trust my dedicated tube preamp to prepare the signal properly for the amp Good luck in with building your 2 channel rig! -
Yeah, I like their story and heard some of the higher end stuff at a show.

I was impressed to say the least. That first system with the Sony SS-AR-1's really sounded awesome.2.2 Office Setup | LG 29UB55 21:9 UltraWide | HP Probook 630 G8 | Dell Latitude | Cabasse Stream Amp 100 | Boston Acoustics VS 240 | AUDIORAX Desk Stands | Mirage Omni S8 sub1 | Mirage Omni S8 Sub2 -
