I am getting a pair of 845 amps, so time for these Cary mono blocks to find a new home. These are 20 watts of pure class A single ended amplification. The 572-3 is a low-mu audio triode with a thoriated-tungsten filament, graphite anode and hard glass. The amps were recapped and upgraded to Hexfred's at Cary in August of 2013 (invoice included). You get the two mono block amplifiers, two Shunyata power cords, owner's manual, a full compliment of tubes and these extra tubes: one SV-572-3 ($164 from New Sensor), one 5R4GYB, two 6BL7, and two 6SL7. They will ship in original factory cartons (double boxed). Asking $1800 plus shipping.

    Sorry I'm keeping the stands. You can get standard and custom sizes from Tate Blanchard at Custom Isolation Products in Houston. I had him cut these specifically to fit my Shanling SP-80 EL34PP mono blocks. I think I'll take the isolation feet and put them on a larger piece of acrylic to fit my new amps.

    Luther, congrats on the new amps bud. That was quite a search it seems you did. Keep us posted. On a side note, I'd love to do a shootout between the two 845 amps.

    Sounds like a fun day. Bring your amps when you visit this summer. Maybe we can make it a full on audio get together. Food, fun and libations.

    Darn I only own one tube piece and it can't hold the powercord of one of these! Gorgeous and good luck with the sale.

    I checked these out at Luther's last weekend. Extremely impressive amps and a great buy at that price. Someone will be very lucky indeed!

    I mentioned these to my wife this morning and how they were still available. She mumbled something about including divorce proceedings in an offer. ;)

    Man I can't believe these are still available!
