Reserve dropped. Own it. The best of both worlds: the nuvista mini triodes were developed in the 50's to overcome the shortcomings of existing valves. They are designed for 100,000 hours use. With these delicately taking care of the musical signal in the front end and the solid state power stage, these measure very well and have almost limitless drive and control. After 35 years retailing audio, my forever amp has spent almost all of its 5 years in its original packaging and I'd would be very surprised if it has seen 100 hours use. Character wise? The delicate finesse of an 8 watt SET tube amp with the forthright power of a 1990's Rotel welder! Moved to a one lounge house soon after its purchase with a front door RIGHT WHERE THE LEFT SPEAKER NEEDS TO BE! Going back to full range and tubes. $12,000 when I bought it, the 600.2 just released is $16,000 so $8,000 is really where I want to be. Open to "sensible" offers. Display not faulty, (camera shutter speed)

Needless to say, it is in perfect condition in silver on black with all accessories and packaging as per factory. No category for "near mint" so listed as USED but as new as if you bought it a month ago. I don't choose lightly and can get anything I want and this is what cut the mustard.

Best of luck,
