Ok, recently I picked this up and had it shipped to to a fellow audiophile to demo with his Apogees. It was bought just because I got to compare most of the amps I wanted to demo, so I wanted to scratch the itch of demoing this on the Apogees.This is a model even one above what is listed on the Ayon website - it does 300w triode and 400w pentode. Located in the UK. Originally purchased in France, so confirms to EU voltage. The list price of this is 23k EUR, and am selling at 12k EUR. You will find older Orthos selling at lower, but those also have lower power. It sounds phenomenal on the Apogees, but rather than trust the seller, please read this review http://www.highfidelity.pl/@main-451&lang=en These reviews from Joel prefer it to CAT JL2, JL3, Karan 2000w, etc, including on the Maggie 20.7 where he prefers it to an SS beast like Karan 2000.

http://www.whatsbestforum.com/showth...l=1#post178265 It is like new, as the previous owner bought it from a dealer, barely used it before changing speakers from Avalon to some standamounts on which he went Accuphase 200. I haven't used it except for testing. The packaging is brilliant and the KT 150s are in excellent shape. I am selling because after reflection, I am changing strategy and instead of restored Apogees am going with a horn I heard just before Xmas.
