    I'd like to hear it. 200 WPC in an OTL seems like rabbit hunting with an elephant gun. :p (I couldn't afford to keep her in tubes!)

    The one listed on Audiogon says $23,900.00 list, asking $11,000.00. Yet, that article and the Bluebook both say $12,500.00 list...hmmmmm?

    He must have re-tubed it. :rolleyes:

    Somewhat odd choice of power tubes -- TV timing sync by design. The ones in your photo look like Mazdas. I'd have to wonder about ongoing availability. But, I would still love to hear it. Unique design philosophy at times yields very pleasant results.

    question and a comment:

    What are they using for output tubes?

    Woe to the owner if one of those outputs ever shorts... I suspect it'll take down the whole power grid. :-O
