I'm rebuilding my system over the next 4 months due to losing my music room so I will be selling most of my equipment.

I'll be parting with:
- Lavry Lavry AD10 purchased 6 months ago from Sonic Circus, manual, original box, and standard power cord - $1175 shipped
- Lavry DA10 SOLD
- Denon AH-D950 - a little worn but always kept inside in a non-smoking home - $40 shipped
- Yacco solid silver Lucky 7 XLR 3ft. NEW - 105 shipped
- Tube shields for 9pin tubes (15) - 20$ shipped
- EMU1212M - well kept always behind a Brickwall $70 shipped
- 5687/6BQ5 integrated amp - $525 shipped
Apparently the front end on this amp was designed by Gary Dodd of Dodd Audio. The builder is Charles Cicci and I have his phone number. I can do 625 shipped on this with a matched quad of RCA bronze plate 5687, and a matched quad of brand new Genalex (re-issue) EL84. I use an Amplitrex AT1000 to test my tubes. I simply don't have room for this thing in my new space.
Here's what I have from the previous owner, a friend of Charles (a really nice down to earth guy).
"Teflon-insulated wiring, good RCAs, instrument-grade biding posts. PRP non-inductive resistors and a variety of good caps. TKD volume control. Hefty input selector switch.
Retrofitted McIntosh chassis. The tube cage is included.
Awesome input stage, with 5687 tubes. (7044s will also work.). And those are Bugle Boy 6BQ5’s in the output stage. .
Output power is typical for an EL84/6BQ5 push-pull amp, probably a substantial 15wpc.
This amp has a regulated power supply—which is pretty unusual for a power amp stage. It’s built on the heat sink that’s visible on top of the chassis. The power transformer is somewhat oversized, so it has no trouble handling the extra current draw through the regulator.
As for the sound, first of all, it’s the quietest tube amp I’ve ever heard—probably because of the regulated power supply. It isn’t quite as lush as you might expect from an EL84… It’s airier. Vocals have more air around them, and it nevertheless has a characteristic EL84 sound. It does sound a little warmer with the Bugle Boys than with the TAD EL84’s I have. The TADs are also a nice tube. I’ll include either set, buyers choice.
Built by Charles Cocci in Brockton, MA. (He builds a small number of tube amp, preamps and integrateds, and also mods lots of audio gear. He might be better known, except that there’s a fairly small number of us who buy up most of the equipment he builds.) " - NOS 5751 - Sylvania GB, RCA black plate, EH GOLD - $100/55/25

DIY lot:
Okay, 3 of 7 RCa plugs needed to be cleaned up but their usable (a 4 packs runs $20 at parts express).
There is Belden CC89259 which were originally made by Element cable as 11' pair:
(2) CC89259 runs of 3ft.
(1) CC89259 of about 3.5ft
(2) CC89259 runs of 5ft.
Homegrown 22awg solid silver that is twisted to make (1) pair of RCA's (unterminated) about 1ft
(1) pair of solid silver wires; 6 inches.
Audioquest spades, 20 silver. Will have to check size (8?)
Some copper wire, cloth covered, from Homegrown; enough to make a short pair of interconnects
(1) pair of Zaolla cable (was RCA interconnect), now determinated; good for a short iPod to amp cable.
5 ft of Cinemaquest 4 conductor CL3 rated speaker wire
some Cardas silver solder
and a couple random pieces of 89259 and shield
You can have it all 60 shipped.
The Double Shotgun of Clear Day is great stuff but as you can see I'm downsizing and without monoblocks I won't be able to use them; I'm planning on getting another longer pair down the road though. They are terminated with silver spades and they fit on my Cyber 211 monoblocks and Klipsch RF7s which are pretty standard terminals.
Not sure I'd should sell these power cords as I might need one or time, but I need to fund an amp purchase first so....
