Does anyone here own a pair or have heard a pair? I'll say for right now I'm staring at a pair that are the easiest 9 out of a 10 that I personally have ever seen. That's all for now.
Well yes and no. I have not purchased them yet but a friend called me over last night and he showed them to me. He deals a lot in vintage furniture, gear, etc..... I'm looking at it two ways. As stock mint they are a very desirable pieces if not legendary to many as we all know commanding from 6-9,000.00 from the sold prices I have seen and many not in this good of condition. For a collector stock is a no brainer but then do they sound that good stock? As higher end audio listeners we tend to like modifying things to our liking (many of us anyway) with non OEM parts to the sound the way we might like but doing that would kill the value for these particular amps. I have first shot before he even will mention to others and he's notified me first in the past and I have brought home Klipshorns as a result of him only living 20 minutes from me. Not sure what I'll do but he also dropped a hint on me yesterday he has a bead on a Garrard 301 so F*ck me I know I'd probably get that if offered. I'm not sure about the amps though. It is a rare opportunity that has been dropped in my lap though and I definatly realize it.Wow! I’ll bet you are excited to get those up and running.
If the 301 passes you by, please send my way!Well yes and no. I have not purchased them yet but a friend called me over last night and he showed them to me.
