Up for sale is a good condition Cayin TA-30 integrated amplifier. Rare black faceplate. This amp was the prototype for the Primaluna Prologue One.

This amplifier has the Bizzy Bee mods that include external bias, upgraded capacitors, focus control (negative feedback control), and the ability to run this amp with EL-34, KT88 , EL-37 KT-66 or 6L6 power tubes OR in a single ended mode by removing 2 poweramp tubes and rebasing appropriately. I'll include the provided instructions on how to do this.

The amp is in wonderful condition with the exception of the tube cage. It has a few scratches on it from storage after a move. I always played the amp without the cage and didn't realize it was affected from my move.

For my asking price I will include a quad of Psvane Treasure 6CA7 (new) I also have an additional faceplate if the purchaser wants them.

Below are specs regarding the amp.

35W x 2ch ---- 2 x 12AU7, 2 x 12AX7, 4 x EL34 in a push-pull configuration,NOTE This amp can also use 12at7 tubes. Any 12A_7 tube can go into any of the preamp tube slots. This is a tube roller dream. Mixing and matching possibilities are endless. 4 line inputs, 2 line outputs ALPS potentiometer, silver wiring, removable power cord

Asking $750
Please note: buyer pays shipping and 3% paypal.
