I feel an obligation to offer these up here First. They are black,I'm the original owner.I'll post pic's later this evening. The CP price is 1800.00 for the pair.PM if interested.Selling due to tube addiction.BTW--these things are BIG


These are the "special edition" version,, WBT binding posts,, about 18 years left on the transferrable warranty. I'll rate them a 9 out of 10,as I'm sure there's something not perfect somewhere.I also have an offer from Klaus for an additional upgrade that I will share with the new owner.These are built like tanks,and also very heavy' but not 'umble.:) (A little Uriah Heep)

    Someone should buy these --

    I basically have the same amps and I can tell you they are awesome. I also bought them from George and I can say his gear is always as described and GREAT to deal with.

    Good luck!

    Thanks for the input guys,, I really do not expect that they will sell here, but, as I mentioned,I feel obligated to offer them up here first.They are about 2 years old,excellent condition,and I will be taking a hit if they sell here,or on Audiogon,as I feel that I have them priced to sell.Anyone with mid to large SDA's should give these some consideration,I know what they sound like with the Dreadnought, and it's almost "scary", these things just play so effortlessly.Thanks again.:)

    George, what else are you looking at getting? You had to have found a great deal somewhere for you to offer these at that price. Hmmmm, you have me wondering now.

    I'm sensing whatever it is has tubes in it though...........

    This Saturday? Hmmm.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
