Here is a nice Sherwood S-5000 integrated amp that I planned on rebuilding, but have decided to just sell a bunch of the amps I 'was' going to fix up and empty out my upstairs hobby room and consolidate the remains into the garage. I no longer have the time or space to accommodate all the stuff I've accumulated over the years. This amp is stock except that the selenium rectifier was replaced with newer fast diodes. That's all the farther I went with it. Just like my other Sherwood amp I have for sale, this amp works well on all input settings (except for tape & phono, of course) when tested with a CD player. There was NO hum when I brought the amp up on a variac and it also sounded great when playing vinyl. I'd tested it on a pair of Infinity Reference Studio Monitors and I was surprised with the great sound it put out. As with all the vintage equipment with aged caps I would not trust the caps to hold up, even though they seem okay for now. I have included a new quality US made 105c can cap and a quad of Russian K40Y PIO coupling capacitors. You would have to buy a few more caps to replace all the electrolytics in the unit. The four output tubes are all NOS Russian made 6N14N-EB which are the long-life equivalent of the 7189 and sound excellent. The rectifier tube is a Holland made Sherwood branded 5AR4/GZ34 which tests strong and the 7199s are RCA made Sherwood branded which also test strong The other tubes are all 12AX7s and are a mix of a pair of Raytheons, a pair of GEs, and a single Yugoslavian smooth plate. I am selling the amp 'as-is' only guaranteeing that it will not arrive DOA. I pack very well and have had no issues with any of the other amps or other equipment that I've ever shipped out (check my feedback). I am charging $40 for shipping in the continental US and I will refund the difference for shipping if the actual cost is less than $40. No charge for packing or handling. If you have any questions shoot me an email.
