The target audience is obviously quite willing to spend. Below is an example Craigslist ad:
This amp is a beauty both sonically and physically. If you haven't paired a SET amp with your high efficiency speakers yet, you're missing out. This amp is warm and musical with excellent channel separation. Bass is excellent; full but not flabby. Power output is around 3.5 watts per channel. Your speakers should be 90db+ efficient, prefereably 95db+. The Stereomour can be used as both an integrated amp or a stand alone amplifier. It has 3 RCA inputs and volume control. Demos welcome.
The JJ 2A3-40 tubes alone are 260 new. I have other 2A3 tubes I can sell this amp with and lower the price accordingly. Choices are JJ 2A3-40 (full price), Electro Harmonix 2A3 Gold (subtract 100USD), or Sovtek's (subtract 150USD). I'll throw in a few NOS driver tubes for you to roll, as well. Also included is the stock walnut base and owner's/instruction manual.
I have a bunch of other gear available for sale, too, including the tube preamp in the photo.
