This is a true classic, upgraded from the original F1 circuit by the designer, Nelson Pass. As a committed tubophile and SET addict, I grew tired of the difficulty sourcing reliable, high quality tubes, and all the hassles that entailed. A good audio buddy convinced me to take a chance on this amp a few years ago, and I never looked back. The color saturation, tonality and transparency are on a par with the best amps that I have heard. It reminds me of an excellent 45 set amp, but with a completely silent background and more low end grunt. This is a current source amplifier, putting out 10 wpc class A, into single ended/balanced outputs. It is meant to be used with crossoverless, wideband drivers. Although I didn’t use it for this purpose, I have read that it is also very popular with certain hard to drive headphones. It is in excellent condition, with no functional or cosmetic issues. After 40 plus years enjoying this hobby, I’ve downsized to a more apartment sized system, and am selling off my last few pieces. I’ll be listing a fantastic Jeffrey Jackson preamp shortly, and can offer a nice deal to anyone interested in both components (sonic nirvana).
