I have used these for the last 5 years. I bought them from the original owner. I had to replace the hum pots and tubes.

The left amp's driver tube socket occasionally makes some noise, but reseating the tube has always taken care of the problem. The right amp has a toggle switch installed on the top plate that is not connected to anything. I believe it was part of a mod to add stand-by power mode, but the node has been otherwise removed.

The RCA and Sylvania 12AV7 and Sovtek 2A3 tubes, sourced from AA sponsor Jim McShane, are included in the asking price. For another $100 I will include my the TJ 2A3/n mesh tubes, and two sets additional sets of input tubes (Beckman 7062 and GE 6829's). The tubes are all low hours.

I believe the output transformers are the optional upgrade magnequest TFA-204.

Because of the incomplete mod, and some corrosion on some of the transformer casings, I rate these as fair. Operationally, they are good. I really enjoyed their sound with some Klipsch Forte's. They also sound good with the Athena AS-F2 speakers I have for sale.
